The usual ramble.
I've listed all Transformers from 1984 onwards. Those underlined I've reviewed, those in faction colours I own. At the bottom of the page I've listed Japanese toys (except for equivalent toys/minor repaints of the same character).
While I do want to provide insight, there will always be subjective opinion in my reviews so don't take them as gospel. When writing a review, I try to view from a relative viewpoint - I wont grade G1 toys based on modern production standards.
If you're unsure which toy you have, but want to know more about it, try this ID guide by Philister - you can search by alt mode, colour and series.

The "European" Constructicons - so named since this was the first time they were released in most of Europe - are not the same as the G2 Constructicons. They do not have G2 stamps, and Bonecrusher, Hook, Scavenger & Scrapper have grey parts. The plastic purple parts are the same shade as on the G1 Constructicons, not the lighter purple of Generation 2. Hook does not have the metal peg that Bonecrusher attaches to & Scavenger has the metal peg on his chest removed. Long Haul is pretty much the same, lacking only the G2 stamp. These guys didn't come with Devastator parts (or names or specs, for that matter).
France also got a set of Yellow constructicons during G1, which were more or less identical to the later G2 versions (presumably without the G2 stamps), and came with combining parts. I've never actually seen one of these in the flesh.
