Who are these Targetmasters? I know there's Blurr, Kup, and Hot Rod but I don't know the rest. Are there any more than these 6?

edit - Well apparently I can't read during 2 in the morning. So i'll ask another question. Where can I get these buggers?

I had a few back when they were brand new back in 1986-87, Blurr, Crosshairs, and Kup.

They(the actual weapons as robots) aren't as articulated as the headmasters unfortunately as they have no moving arms. They are OK but I liked the Headmasters much better.

Haha.. I've finally gotten to know the difference between the Targetmasters and the Headmasters. Really.. it's so simple!

there are more targetmasters than you can find on botch's site though

http://www.botchthecrab.com/

but targetmasters had cheap "weapons" which, 9 out of 10 times existed of two sticks flipping out of someones back.. and the size was way off for most bots..

Thanks alot DJDrew&ScoobyDoo, and everyone else too(who can't read either

)

It looks like i'm going to atleast dish out cash for Targetmaster Blurr, but those Nebulons look really weak in everything(articulation, posing, standing up).

I'm quite surprised to see that mini-cons are actually kind of a throw-back to the Nebulons, and how Armada is really just one big Targetmaster/Headmaster homage!

It's also pretty funny how about 16 years after i was born, and 20 years after these guys came out, I finally get interested in G1!
