Walsh, Johnny Douglas, Anne Bryant and Ford Kinder. The album features music from seasons 1-3 of "The Transformers" animated series which debuted in 1984.
"We're very excited to share with fans of all ages the classic original score from the animated show that helped launch the Transformers universe," said Stephen Davis, Chief Content Officer for Hasbro. "Legacy has created an incredible, unique product that fans will love and that is truly More than Meets the Eye!"
Hasbro Studios Presents '80s TV Classics: Music from The Transformers features a mix of orchestral and '80s inspired synth tracks which have been remastered from the original tapes by Walsh himself.
