The Protoform Sessions is a soundtrack by composer Vince DiCola. It was first released at the BotCon 2001 convention exclusive. But, it is now commercially available to buy. The album is a collection of early demos, out-takes and alternative themes from The Transformers: The Movie music score. Included are intro tracks called "Transitions" that include commentary by Vince DiCola himself. As he explains, these early recordings were produced with instrumentation that was of lower quality than that which would be heard in the final film.

It was released by Columbia Music Entertainment on March 31, 2004 in Japan only. As the title suggests, the set spans all of the Japanese G1 series. Including theme songs with corresponding karaoke versions, image score inspired by Fight! Super Robot Lifeform by composer Shiro Sagisu which was previously released in Japan as "Transformers: Original Soundtrack" in 1984. Scores straight from Headmasters, Masterforce, by composer Ishida Katsunori. Plus the Victory and Zone score which was by Michiaki Watanabe. However, this set does include the first two versions of the US opening theme song by Anne Bryant and the suites to two of the 1984 and 1985 US toy commercials. But these theme songs include their sound effects that played along with the song. Unfortunately, the original score from the "More Than Meets The Eye" series by composer Robert J. Walsh is absent from this set.
