IDW Publishing held the Transformers comics licence from 2005 to 2018, producing one of the most extensive and critically regarded runs in the franchise’s publishing history. The line began with Simon Furman’s Infiltration arc, which reimagined the Transformers as operating covertly on Earth before a full-scale war began. The subsequent years saw a major continuity expansion through the All Hail Megatron event, followed by the parallel ongoing series More Than Meets the Eye and Robots in Disguise, which ran from 2012 to 2016 and are considered highlights of the entire IDW era.

The Transformers Classics UK volumes are British market collected editions that gathered IDW’s American material for UK readers, sometimes in different formats than the US editions. IDW published the Classics UK volumes in a prestige hardcover format, making them the primary way UK readers accessed the material during the early IDW years. The 56-volume collection on this page covers the full span of the IDW era from 2006’s Infiltration through to the line’s conclusion in 2019 with Unicron.

Dan Abnett contributed to various points of this publishing era, and his work appears across multiple volumes. Readers new to IDW’s Transformers output are recommended to start with Infiltration and proceed through the main Transformers and More Than Meets the Eye ongoing series in publication order. The Classics UK volumes work well for readers who want the material in the prestige format.
