Did anyone ever play with Go-Bots back in the day?.
Go-Bots were Transformers knock-offs known to the USA.In Japan,Go-Bots is known as Machine Robo from Bandai.They came out around the same time as Transformers in Japan which was 1981-1982.
Anyone remember the cartoon too?. :bert

I think I have a Go-bot. It is a white/off-white jet and it transforms...it's cool and very small. It was made by Bandai in the early 80's. I don't remember much about them though. My brother got tons of transformers and the like when he was a kid...I didn't.

Go -bots, (hahahahahahahahha) I remember I sent my mom for an optimus prime, but she came back with a blue thing called zor or something like it (it was blue and you stuck the middle of it with a screwdriver thing) lord.....I hated that thing, I did eventually get prime, but I to this day hate go-bots, (they were rip offs nothing more, nothing less).
And don't get me started with the animated series, (tonka was on crack in the 80's) seriously folks!!! CRACK!!!!!(hahahaha) :lol:
I changed the channel and watched the "real" cartoons, not the crap that was CHALLENGE OF THE GO-BOTS (the challenge was not to watch it sober)!!!!!
Hahahaha.......Sniper....Out!!!

I remember the Go-bots! Well, I remember the cartoon was on tv for a short time & then Transformers took over. It's like the Go-bots couldn't compete. :ha

Funny. That's how I remember the Go-Bots too...just a cheap wannabe Transformer

I actually enjoyed the Go-Bots since I had them and the Transformers.
I always had cross-over battles between the two lines, even the Decepticons would team up with the Autobots. I know... I know... I was a dumb kid. LOL

This is funny...I remember Go-bots as Transformer wannabe's also. Poor Sniper. Imagine getting a Go-bot instead of Optimus Prime :angry:
My brother had both types, but Transformers ruled his room. The go-bots didn't have a chance.

I always loved the crossover stuff too!
Like even when sitcoms would do it...
Remember KITT and Michael Knight visiting Diff'rent Strokes? LOL!!
Then, of course, whenever I would see a glimpse of He-man and She-ra together the whole idea just boggled me! LOL LOL!
