Transformers creator, Henry Orenstein, has died at age 98. Orenstein was a Holocaust survivor who immigrated to the U.S. in 1947, eventually becoming a successful toymaker. He convinced Hasbro to buy Takara's Japanese-made Diaclone and Micro Change toys and repackage them as Transformers. Former Hasbro CEO, Alan Hassenfeld, credited Orenstein as «the catalyst» for the Transformers' existence. Orenstein shared the U.S. patent for the G1 Transformers with Hasbro executive, George Dunsay.
