Similarly, the top 3 guys do have an air of menace about them, and the 4th, the blue guy, would as well if you had put his arms up in a scary position. Now, all the derision about the Go-Bots aside, the bottom guy with the pink-and-red wings reminds me of some of the artwork of demons in the early Dungeons and Dragons game he's a bit on the scary side.
And there were knockoffs of She-Ra there's actually a website of a lady who a fan of these female action figures, some of which actually had cartoon series. BUT.they did have a cuteness factor, and I thought the producers might have been trying to slant them to towards a female audience.Īfter all, He-Man's producers would later add the She-Ra, Princess of Power cartoons and toyline to their marketing empire. Now, it has been long enough I can hardly remember anything from the Go-Bots episodes I saw, but the artwork, storyline, and voicework was clearly inferior. They were protective of the humans, while also developing a genuine friendship in some cases. They were able to do some good explorations of sf themes such as prejudice and acceptance, war and peace, greed and sharing, as the Decepticons strove for power and the energon power source, while the Autobots developed respect for humans and forged teamwork with them, despite their drastic differences. The original Transformers cartoon had a solid edge to it, and it felt like a science fiction series.
I also felt like the cartoon was a total knockoff. From a visual perspective, yeah, a clear knock-off cartoon-art-wise (and, now I see, toy-wise, too). I saw a few Go-Bots cartoons back when they were on first run, but never saw any of the toys.
