Collectors have gone crazy for the Transformers Missing Link toy line ever since it was first revealed in 2023. TakaraTomy keeps pushing out new releases and repaints, from 2024’s C‑01 Convoy onward, and the line has already grown into double digits with no sign of slowing down.
That rapid growth makes it harder and harder to track what’s out, what’s incoming, and what’s been announced. To keep everything straight – for myself as much as for anyone reading – I’ve built this Transformers Missing Link Checklist as an at‑a‑glance guide to every Missing Link release so far.
That’s enough preamble – let’s get into it!

Notes
Anime Type Bumble and Cliff share a code because TakaraTomy released them together in the C‑09 Cybertron Hero Set
The pattern so far indicates that anime version/type repaints get a new number (C-02, C-08, C-09, C-13), whilst different characters from the same mould get a letter suffix on the code (C-01S, C-01N). Except when they don’t (C-05 and C-06)!
TFWiki points out that Missing Link deliberately echoes the numbering system of the vintage Japanese Transformers line. When Takara entered the line’s second year, they jumped ahead to C‑50 for Cybertrons and D‑50 for Destrons, effectively skipping the entire 01 to 49 range for both factions. Those unused numbers became a historical blank space – which is why Missing Link launched with C‑01, presenting itself as the beginning of the sequence.
Despite being the line’s first Decepticon, TakaraTomy gave Nemesis Prime a “C” code. This either means that Missing Link won’t use “D” for Destrons, or that a Cybertron mould will always have a “C” code regardless of deco, or that it was a simple oversight. Time will tell!
