Pretty impressive to see them achieving these solid combiner aesthetics in 1984 without requiring any sort of extra accessories to form a cohesive robot.Henrique de Matoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07989700540466535623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373995196714775112.post-36056470200388141962014-01-22T10:23:10.098-08:002014-01-22T10:23:10.098-08:00IMO, almost 100% of the bad rap for Gobots came fr...IMO, almost 100% of the bad rap for Gobots came from its marketing. I even actually enjoy the cartoon but it's hard to compare it to Transformers, which although almost equal in goofiness, definitely felt like harder sci-fi. <br /><br />Incidentally Pocket was possibly the first transforming toy I ever owned - if my childhood memory serves, we found him buried in our yard! As a kid I was always wondering why he had that big hand that folded out of his heels.<br /><br />Also, Marvel's issue #19 was my inaugural piece of TF fiction, and it heavily featured a (non-Autobot) Lamborghini Countach. Since this was the first time I had seen such a car, I kept waiting for that Lamborghini to transform. Draculahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00587852177919783864noreply@blogger.com
