Transformers: Generation One Audiobook The Battle for Planet Earth

I picked this audiobook up a long time ago, but just recently I found a set that included the cardboard box they came in. I believe it was available in the UK and it’s dated 1985. It was manufactured by Pickwick International.

It’s a two cassette set. The individual boxes are identical on the outside, but the j-card (for anyone not old enough to remember audio cassettes, that’s what they call the cardboard insert inside an audio cassette box) shows the names of the individual stories. Volume 1 includes “Terror on Mount Sheelah” and “Bumblebee to the Rescue”. Volume 2 includes “Menace at the Dam” and “Espionage!!!!”.

I haven’t listened to them myself, but according to TFWiki.net they have a single narrator rather than a full cast of voice actors like the audio versions of the Ladybird Books Transformers stories. Pickwick International collaborated with Ladybird Books on those. (I will have to do a blog on the Ladybird Transformers books sometime.) The four stories are available on YouTube if you want to listen to them.

Terror on Mount Sheelah

Bumblebee to the Rescue

Menace at the Dam

Espionage!!!!

As always, you can find over 15,000 Transformers artifacts from every Transformers series and generation at TFMuseum.com.

Thanks for reading!
