What was the Go-Bot who looked like Optimus?

by cotss2012 » Sat Dec 03, 2011 5:29 pm

For a very long time, I've had a Go-Bot that bears a remarkable resemblance to Optimus Prime. Its vehicle mode is a red, flat-nosed semi, and in robot mode, it has a red chest and blue legs. Does this guy have a name?

I do not blame Michael Bay for crapping all over a huge part of my childhood. He just directed the scripts that were given to him. I blame Orci, Kurtzman, and Krueger, who seem completely incapable of concocting a story that even halfway makes sense.

I think you are thinking of Road Ranger. A quick look on ebay should let you know if it is or isn't, that's how I look up a name if I'm not sure. Hope that helps.
