The concept of transforming mecha was pioneered by Japanese mecha designer <a href="/wiki/Sh%C5%8Dji_Kawamori" title="Shōji Kawamori">Shōji Kawamori</a> in the early 1980s, when he created the <a href="/wiki/Diaclone" title="Diaclone">Diaclone</a> toy line in 1980 and then the <i><a href="/wiki/Macross" title="Macross">Macross</a></i> anime franchise in 1982. Some of Kawamori's most iconic transforming mecha designs include the <a href="/wiki/VF-1_Valkyrie" title="VF-1 Valkyrie">VF-1 Valkyrie</a> from the <i>Macross</i> and <i>Robotech</i> franchises, and <a href="/wiki/Optimus_Prime" title="Optimus Prime">Optimus Prime</a> (called Convoy in Japan) from the <i>Transformers</i> and <i>Diaclone</i> franchises. The concept later became more popular in the mid-1980s, with <i><a href="/wiki/Macross:_Do_You_Remember_Love%3F" title="Macross: Do You Remember Love?">Macross: Do You Remember Love?</a></i> (1984) and <i><a href="/wiki/Zeta_Gundam" class="mw-redirect" title="Zeta Gundam">Zeta Gundam</a></i> (1985) in Japan, and with <i><a href="/wiki/Transformers" title="Transformers">Transformers</a></i> (1984 adaptation of <i>Diaclone</i>)<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and <i><a href="/wiki/Robotech" title="Robotech">Robotech</a></i> (1985 adaptation of <i>Macross</i>) in the West.<sup id="cite_ref-Forbes_22-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Forbes-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Wearable">Wearable</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Mecha_anime_and_manga&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Wearable"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>This refers to mecha that are <a href="/wiki/Powered_exoskeleton" title="Powered exoskeleton">powered exoskeletons</a> rather than piloted as vehicles, such as in <i><a href="/wiki/Genesis_Climber_MOSPEADA" title="Genesis Climber MOSPEADA">Genesis Climber MOSPEADA</a></i> (1983), <i><a href="/wiki/Bubblegum_Crisis" title="Bubblegum Crisis">Bubblegum Crisis</a></i> (1987) and <i><a href="/wiki/Active_Raid" title="Active Raid">Active Raid</a></i> (2016); merge with the mecha, such as in <i><a href="/wiki/Detonator_Orgun" title="Detonator Orgun">Detonator Orgun</a></i> (1991) & <i><a href="/wiki/The_King_of_Braves_GaoGaiGar" title="The King of Braves GaoGaiGar">The King of Braves GaoGaiGar</a></i> (1997); combine with the robots, such as in <i><a href="/wiki/Transformers:_Super-God_Masterforce" title="Transformers: Super-God Masterforce">Transformers: Super-God Masterforce</a></i> (1988); or become mechanical themselves, such as in <i><a href="/wiki/Brave_Command_Dagwon" title="Brave Command Dagwon">Brave Command Dagwon</a></i> (1996) and <i>Fire Robo</i> (2016). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Model_robot">Model robot</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Mecha_anime_and_manga&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Model robot"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Model_robot" title="Model robot">Model robot</a></div> <p>Assembling and painting mecha <a href="/wiki/Scale_model" title="Scale model">scale model</a> kits is a popular pastime among mecha enthusiasts.
