1988
Transformers continue on despite smaller support and still manage to introduce a plethora of new characters. New Headmaster and Targetmaster characters are introduced, but the new driving force for the line are the Pretenders and Powermasters. Optimus Prime makes a return as he becomes a Powermaster.


1989
The toy line receives a new logo design for its sixth year. The subgrouping idea is changed as characters are now down to Pretender and Micromaster groups. These two groups are further subdivided into thematic teams. A few classic characters are revamped as Pretenders.


1990
In its final year, Transformers last burst was with a more expanded Micromaster line and the introduction of the Action Masters. More classic characters were included as Action Masters, including Optimus Prime and the return of Megatron.
