About & sources

What this is

TFdatabase is an independent fan-run encyclopedia for the Transformers franchise. It is a structured database — not a copy of any existing wiki — built to link characters, media, toys and continuities together with explicit relationships. It is not affiliated with Hasbro, Takara Tomy, or Paramount Pictures.

How records are sourced

Every record carries a verification status. Verified records have their facts checked against authoritative public sources. Records whose details (like exact episode counts) could not be fully verified are marked pending review instead of being filled with guesses. Imported data keeps its source and confidence score visible in the admin review area.
