Obviously! Didn\’t we all laugh at the kids with Gobots? Nicely done with the rationale though.

Another awesome thing: The Transformers theme song is sung by guys and girls.

The GoBots theme song is not.

I was trying to think if I had anything to add because the transformers were really after my time by a little. I mean I do like transformers but didn\’t really have any exposure to them except through younger cousins. Then it struck me, what the hell is a GoBot? I don\’t even remember them at all.

A very nice analysis, though it takes more of a global view of the toy concepts rather than focusing on the toys themselves. Obviously when you take into account the movies, TV shows, and comic books the Transformers come out ahead (although you have to subtract a couple points from the Transformers movie due to its use of \”Dare to be Stupid\” in a totally out-of-context fashion).

I guess I like metal better than plastic.

Regardless, thank you for addressing another item on my noodad wish list. Now if we can just get some more pictures of foodad the site will become a true online utopia.

Boy bands suck. But if not for boy bands, would I know that Arcade Fire and Broken Social Scene were awesome? If everything was awesome, would anything be awesome? No. Everything would be average. Thanks for being the suck Gobots!

I honestly think the Gobot show intro is much better – more dynamic, interesting, and most of all fun looking, plus the theme music is faster and catchier. The transformers intro takes itself too seriously and is flat out boring. Plus, why do the autobots fly into the mountain at the end when none of them are supposed to be able to fly? Seems like a Gobots rip-off to me.

WHY!?
No matter which camp you fall into, the point is moot. No one, that I have heard, is planning on making a gobots movie…..

Just post a review of how awesome the movie was, and oh yes, it was. Be done with it.
Then let all the weird little fanbois pathetically cry about The GM sell out, Primes flames and my personal favorite… waaaaaa Bumble is suppose to be a VW instead they made him a sweet looking camero waaaaaa
