20 Gobots That Remind Us Why the Gobots Sucked So Incredibly Hard

Do you collect other toys besides Transformers? Maybe you've got a Masters of the Universe collection you'd like to show off, or maybe you like Thundercats, Voltron, G.I.Joe, Power Rangers, Star Wars, Wrestling, or any of the various comic book toy lines. Please keep the discussions here to non-Transformers toy lines.

They did that in the comics and/or Botcon as I recall, something about an alternate universe.

I'd LOVE to see some Gobot love in the TF lines though. Something like Generations Gobots would be awesome and I'd buy every single one of them.

Same, here. I've been saying it for years.

Yeah, I've actually been contemplating doing some repaints of my own. I've got Classics Crasher already (the Mirage repaint) but I'd kill for a Cy-Kill :P. I've been considering doing a repaint of 2007 Arcee/Elita One into him since that mold has the bike wheels on the shoulders, but I'd like something that's a closer match.

Hehe, yeah, I had that model kit as a kid. It was epic. I've since acquired some of the little Mospeada figures and of course you can still get this.

Okay... that looks like a recolor of the Mospeada bike into Cy-Kill. Am I right or wrong?

Yep, that's exactly what it is. Pretty cool, huh :)?
