Wow, great sound! Watching this video is like finally listening to that record that should have come out in 1985.

Cd's? My cd player broke, my computer doesn't have a cd drive, but my record player still works. A cd = no purchase, choose your destiny!

Any word on Jem? My BFF would go nuts over something official for that.

Looking at the website....I wonder if more versions will come out, instead of just this golden record.

Looking at the website....I wonder if more versions will come out, instead of just this golden record.
Any specific reason as to why? I do see that they issued two versions of The Dark Crystal.
Most of their soundtracks have a couple of different versions. Since this is a big release I can imagine a couple of splattered vinyl represses for example.

DETAILS CAME FROM KOTAKU moment ago:
https://kotaku.com/music-from-the-80s-transformers-cartoon-finally-gets-an-1823537274?rev=1520346441450&utm_campaign=Socialflow_Kotaku_Twitter&utm_source=Kotaku_Twitter&utm_medium=Socialflow
As catchy as its opening theme was, music from the original Transformers cartoon has never had an official release. Hasbro and Legacy Recordings fix that grave oversight on March 9 with the release of Hasbro Studios Presents ‘80s TV Classics: Music from The Transformers. On vinyl, no less.
People who follow me on Twitter may have noticed a recent surge in excitement over vinyl music. This is why. Cassette might have been more appropriate, but the thought of listening to the original Transformers opening theme on the crappy $40 portable turntable I picked up last week makes me so happy, I’ll let it slide.
Hasbro Studios Presents ‘80s TV Classics: Music from The Transformers includes that opening theme, along with 45 minutes of unreleased music from composers Robert J. Walsh (who remastered the tracks from their original tapes), Johnny Douglas, Anne Bryant and Ford Kinder. The album spans seasons one through three of the cartoon, so we should be getting a nice mix of orchestrated tracks plus post-Transformers: The Movie synth magic.
The album goes on sale Friday at noon Eastern time, and will be available in three flavors—Bumblebee, Optimus Prime and Megatron.
Enjoy The Ride Records, partnered with Hasbro and and Sony Music/Legacy Recordings for the release, has the exclusive on the Optimus Prime and Megatron variants. Think Geek gets Bumblebee. All three versions will sell for $18.99. That’s pretty cheap for limited edition vinyl, so the 2,000 copy run is probably going to go pretty fast.
Here’s the track listing:
