Opening Narration
Many millions of years ago, on the planet Cybertron, life existed. But, not life as we know it today. Intelligent robots, that could think and feel inhabited the cities. They were called Autobots and Decepticons. But, the brutal Decepticons were driven by a single goal, total domination. They set out to destroy the peace-loving Autobots, and a war between the forces of good and evil raged across Cybertron. Devastating all in it’s path. Draining the planet’s once rich sources of energy. The Autobots, on the verge of extinction, battle valiantly to survive.
Theme Song

Autobots wage their battle to destroy the evil forces of the Decepticons!
The Transformers! Robots in disguise!
The Transformers! More than meets the eye!

Batman The Animated Series (Lunchtime syndication.) – Great theme song. Still gets me excited. Great animation (for the most part). Backgrounds drawn on black paper.

Superman The Animated Series (Later in college. GREAT show.)
I remember thinking “YES! They finally drew superman like a friggin HOUSE.” Tim Daly is a perfect voice for Superman/Clark as well.
