"Henkei" means "transform" basically. Usually, the bots will say "henshin" to transform (or "Turansufooooooomu!"), which also means "transform", so I'm guessing that its just a question of grammer.

 

My own "educated" guess is that the translated title could make sense as "Transforming...Transformation...TRANSFORMERS!"

 

"Henkei" means "transformation" so the Japanese are using a redundant term, much like saying "ATM Machine" "Tokyo Koen park" in Japanese- "koen" means park but its also a proper noun, or an official name so it gets "doubled" when translated, also like "Koi Carp" as "koi" means "carp').

 

Another example of a "redundant term" is to say "ATM Machine" as the "M" means "machine" (but we still say "ATM Machine" anyway).
