What a great video. Go-bots are so underrated. They were the first. I remember getting Loco and Spay C not to long before Transformers came out. Love them too, but Machine robo/ Go-bots will always be #1 in this book over here. Take care all
Omg a friend of mine had that toy a long time ago. When I asked him what it's name was. He said he didn't know. But his dad called it "Schwang bot". It was years later when we found out what he meant by "schwang". 🤣
6:55 its my experiance that oddities like this in a toyline are often quite sought after ,and thus fairly valueable...especially if they were recalled or discontinued toys and characters.
It would've been cool as a wrist or shoulder mounted grapple launcher with instead of a string hooking it the reinforced steel. They could've also made it one of his arms, or just given him a tail lmao
when it comes to transformers it depends on year of production, of figure class, of figure character and vehicle shape. good example are ROTF deluxe, voyager and even scout sometimes. got lot of em in my collection, and they are actually pretty posable.

A lot of transformers and go bots had schlongs. Megatron had a huge one. So did Blue Streak. He had one that folded out that locked his waist and torso in place when they spun around.
As a kid, I wanted the Transformer Shockwave so bad but could never find him in stores. So I did the next best thing: I got the fake gray Shockwave that was sold in Radio Shack and nicknamed “Shackwave” by most Transformers fans. He also had a huge “dong”. His trigger in gun mode was long and pointy unlike the real Shockwave who had a short, square shaped trigger that didn’t look x-rated in robot mode.
That very odd! I remember the ONLY ones I would ever see in stock at stores were Shockwave, Grimlock, Omega Supreme, Trypticon and Inferno. I would never see any of the others in stock because they sold quicker.
Oh wow, I had this toy and completely forgot about it until i saw this video! Never ever realized it was a Gobot, I just assumed it was a random transforming toy
Cool video! Nice little Go-Bot and funny too. Your stop-motion and editing skills are humorous and entertaining. Nice and informative without picking on the little guy for NOT being a Transformer. I was there before and during the Go-Bots era and Transformers era and both toy products were cool. Transformers became more popular and seemed to be aimed more at pre-teen aged kids and middle class income families and the Super Go-Bots and Revell model kits were directed at a slightly older audience as well. Tonka really messed up though with the Rocklords toys and that was an error that would cost them. Sometimes that's the way it goes though and experience is a good teacher. It would be nice to see another contender try their hand at converting robots close to this size here in modern times that has good details and decent articulation that even low-income people can afford and be something that people in higher-income classes would enjoy as well. I'm about to take a look at some of your other videos as this one has impressed me and I already have a feeling that I'm going to subscribe.
I had that toy. Just goes to show how innocent I was back than because I never left the crane arm on in robot mode nor ever thought of putting it on. Now with how I am, I'd never take it off in robot mode lmao 🤣

At least Go Bots have 4 separate limbs. Unlike many transformers which a solid block instead of two legs.
