![]() No! Leader-1! Small Foot! I've got to think. It's scrambling my circuits! Help! I can't fly. They're going to destroy the Command Center! I'm fine but the stealth device is completely destroyed. Look! The Command Center took a direct hit. Cy-Kill's not going to like this one little bit.Īccording to my scanners she and Fitor are not far from here. With this suit objects of any weight or size can be moved with just a thought. You mean the power to move objects with just your mind? This last suit has special telekinetic circuitry. This next suit is equipped with every kind of scanner ever made. This next suit practically increases a Gobot's fire power. Leader-1 just tested the suit with a speed booster. They’re added to bring some human element, but all they do is bring the show to a new level of inhuman torture.Yes and each one has its own power. To make matters worse the Guardians befriend a couple of very annoying teenage humans. The characters (as well as the toys) had no identifying insignias or markings like the Transformers for example to indicate their allegiance, although it was clearly indicated on the packaging of the toys. There's no clear visual distinction between the two factions. Cy-Kill, Fitor, Cop-Tur and Crasher), who were in almost every episode, with other characters occasionally making appearances. The series generally focused on a small number of robots from each faction (Leader-1, Turbo, Small Foot and Scooter vs. The GoBots' origin as organic beings accounted for the presence of genders among the robots. The female robots on the series, such as Crasher, were built like the males, but with some distinguishing female features. The characters rarely had guns, instead shooting energy blasts out of their fists. ![]() The Guardians were led by Leader-1 while the Renegades were led by Cy-Kill. The Challenge of the GoBots dealt with two opposing forces of transforming robots from the planet GoBotron: the heroic Guardians and the evil Renegades. If you do watch the Gobots, be warned for some stupidness beyond stupid. Just skip it and watch a proper cartoon show about transforming robots like the Transformers or Robotech. The Challenge of the Gobots was one of the stupidest cartoon shows on TV in the 80’s. Seriously? A fucking scooter! Which kid would prefer a stupid scooter over a sports car!Īnimationwise the Gobots are from Hanna-Barbera, so production value is very low. The Gobots on the other hand turn into the lamest vehicles possible, like a scooter. The Transformers turned into cool stuff like race cars, trucks, fighter jets, tanks, guns, etc. Because the villain always has an unshaven face, you know. There’s nothing scary or menacing about him, except for his 5 o’clock shadow. If you’re going to portray a good guy, don’t give him yellow teeth! Cy-kill, the leader of the evil Renegades, looks like he’s got anorexia. Leader 1 looks like a slim Homer Simpsons with yellow teeth. If you have a robot in a show it should look high tech, not like low tech garbage. It’s all clunky and without any streamlining. It feels as if the designers had a contest who could come up with the lamest design, and some studio head honcho accidentally approved those designs. There’s nothing cool about the design of the Gobots in robot mode. This cartoon is just too stupid to have anything nice to say about it. Sure, they’re robots and they can transform, but even those things look stupid in the Gobots. The Gobots are just plain stupid - and gay. Watching the Gobots one can understand why. Hanna-Barbera is mostly known for comedic cartoons like the Flintstones and less for their action oriented cartoons. The Gobots are Hanna-Barbera’s lame version of transforming robots. The Challenge of the Gobots is a cartoon series about the world’s gayest robots.
