    Default Complete Transformers toy Battery list

    Finally, the fan-resource that many have asked for in the past, and one that every fan has been waiting for.

    A complete listing of all the Transformers toys that have Electronics, and noting which ones were sold with Batteries already included. ALSO, included are any later version of a figure that had the electronics GUTTED, so you don't have to worry about digging out their batteries.

    I did some searching and couldn't find this sort of list anywhere else, so is likely to be another Ozformers exclusive resource available to all fans.
    At least, I hope it is useful, as I've been working on it for quite a while now.

    GO TO THIS TOPIC to show why Batteries need to be removed, plus some further info & photo examples.

    NOTE - this topic is being left open, so that others can post up details that I haven't added yet. I am slowly going through all of my collection and removing batteries, so haven't added all specific battery/cell details yet. The first step was making up the list by looking over my own toys, so please add any figures I have missed, because I may not have them to know for sure.
    (anything with a ??? means I have not yet confirmed that detail, so am hoping others can help)

    Since there are so many toys on this list, I have broken it up into sections within this topic, in a rough chronological order.


    LEGEND:
    I = Batteries ARE Installed inside the toy in the packaging
    NI = Batteries are NOT Installed inside the toy in the packaging
    AA, AAA, C, D = Common Battery sizes
    LR44 = Button Cells used in Transformers toys are referred to as LR44 (image at link) but can also be known as A76 or L1154.
    LR41 = Tiny Button Cells


    EACH YEAR - I will aim to post up an annual listing at around the start of February, to include all of the toys from the previous years that had electronics, and which of those have batteries included.

    The Annual Battery Removal day has been moved from November 1st to February 1st, to allow me to include all toys from that calendar year.

    Getting this year's done with a couple weeks to spare, this gives people time to go through their collection for any 2012 toys, plus any older ones they obtained during the last year.


    Have I left anything out? And, if you see something on the list with a question mark that you know, please let me know.


    I have updated the various posts above, with the following items...

    Default The 2014 Annual Check your Batteries Listing

    A week late (because I only just finished up the 2013 Checklist), but here are the 2013 toys with Electronics in them.... for anyone who has removed their toys from packaging and no longer needs to play with the electronic gimmicks (or plans to put the toys into storage). This listing will let you know which of your toys to open up before you put them somewhere for the next decade or two.

    The COMPLETE Battery listing is located here, and this 2014 topic will be merged with it after a couple weeks, so that it archives all the updates and submissions.
    NOTE - if you are a SEALED collector, it is considered better to leave the batteries in the toys, as there is greater value in the packaging remaining sealed (even if the batteries leak, you shouldn't see or ever know about it anyway).

    And thanks to ebay, for packaging pictures of the Armada-Energon-Cybertron figures, the Unicron Trilogy section should now be complete.

    There are still some ??? unknowns to fill, so any submission here or on the battery listing topic, will help the archive for future generations.
