Synopsis: CHALLENGE OF THE GOBOTS: THE ORIGINAL MINI-SERIES (1984) From Gobotron to your home, it's the original 5 episode mini-series that brought the GoBots to life. When Cy-kill embarks on his mad quest to conquer the galaxy starting with Earth, only Leader-1 and his band of Guardians stands in his way. The mini-series that launched a legend! Newly remastered from original film elements, Challenge of the GoBots has NEVER looked this good. See example below.
Review: The Gobots were brought over to the United States back in 1983. It was a toyline produced by the Tonka company one year prior to the arrival of Transformers. Still, this show is considered a lesser quality version of the robot wars! In fact, they were even referenced in the cult classic "Clerks 2" by Jason Lee "Gobots are like the K-Mart of the Transformers". This DVD release from the Warner Archive features the initial mini-series that made it all come to life!
This DVD contains five episodes that made-up the initial broadcast of the Gobots. The video has been remastered (see above) and looks absolutely amazing. I can't believe how clear the image is. The lines are a bit cheesy, but I'm still a fanboy and I love it. This one sits proudly in our vintage animation collection. Now, bring us the complete series release WB!
