Iunno, once CyKill bragged so loudly about Zod being able to kick Trypticon's ass that through multiversal reverberations, Galvatron heard him and got preeeeeeetty pissed off 'bout it, so that collab might become a terf war. ...Or a several million ton dogfight.

Absolutely not. Galvatron loaths organics, and don't forget that Cy-Kill has an organic brain. All the Gobots do.

Great ideas. I was thinking Snoop, a Renegade Female GoBot who turns into a Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird jet, teaming up with Starscream. Crasher would be great with the Stunticons because they drive wrecklessly.

It would be a good use of her talents. She'd enjoy it there, since everything she does is based of what she used to do as a career anyway, before the wars. Reinforces my belief that that's what she really wants, not being with Cy-Kill.

How is killing other robots or building one fit into that? It could explain the girls, but building new gobots were instead fooling around with girls.

In the original Machine Robo line, figures like Pincher and any other that had a monster themed vehicle form were called the Devil Invaders and were the only MR toys intended as antagonists. Aside from the poor animation quality, this could also be another reason why The Gobots show was rejected by Japan because Bandai weren't keen on a majority of the MR figures suddenly being labelled as villains.
@nicopatrizi19532 жыл бұрын
On a fanfic I created, the TV channel in which works the main character broadcasts... CHALLENGE OF MACHINE ROBO! ... Just like Transformers, in that alternative reality Bandai licensed a series both for US and Japan. Initially was like the first story arc of Challenge of Gobots, but then we discover that "renegades" were under control of Gandorians and then brought back to senses. Later, rom Stol, leina and earth allies - between them NICK and AJ- lead the reunited Machine Robo to defeat Gandorians...being an us/Japan coproduction, this version had different censures. A character that dies in Japanese release, gets only "temporarily deactivated" in the US. (For instance Sarah, the daughter of Dozer, while dying in Japanese release is loaded into Ambulance robo in US release) ... The series ended in US with a Motion Picture in which Rom Stol defeats great Gandorian with sorta of matrix before it could attack Chronos with a bunch of Super zods, then the winning machine robo crowd celebrates the victory of Rom Stol in the same way of Transformers The Movie ending... "Let this mark the end of the Chronos wars, ushering the beginning of a new Era of Peace and Happiness for the Whole Galaxy!" Crowd of MACHINE ROBO (With Fitor, Leader One, Scooter robo, Dozer, Bike Robo, Geeper Creeper and many many others MR... Aside the allied earthlings):" HOORAY FOR ROM STOL AND LEINA! HOORAY! (3 TIMES) ". ... Part of the head of great Gandorian forms sorta of "moon" of Chronos... Hah, and The Transformers'movie on that reality was an all different stuff that included also the ROBOTIX robots...
