Description

Land a high-end treasure, with the capture of this 9/84 Marvel The Transformers #1 issue. This classic Copper Age gem was intended to launch a stated four-issue, limited-series run. The giant, transforming robots proved so popular, the run was extended for eighty issues. Mecha fans will thrill to this top quality first issue, which is encapsulated by CGC, with a superior grade of 9.8, White Pages. Making their first comic book appearances in this exciting key issue, are the Autobots and the Decepticons.
