Transformers

Well, G1 continuity ended in 1989 or something so might be a long wait.

Oh good, I'm glad the ladybots are the big mystery plot if only because it takes something that was just kind of odd (the sudden appearance of the pronoun 'she' in the transformer vocabulary) and turns it into something rad. I've just been reading the summaries on the transformers wiki and they've just been having a hell of a good time with the Lost Light. Really, the whole shift from stuff on Earth to grand space opera has me thinking of coming back.

No it's the new Generations Titan class Metroplex released last year.

That explains a lot. Was wondering why it looked different 20+ years later.

Aletta One been around before Arcee. I think chroma was out with Aletta One. I remember the show had about 5 female auto bots in G1 and Arcee came out in the movie, or possibly the lost episode before the movie, the one with Metroplex first appearance.

I don't recall if the Marvel transformers had any female transformers in it. Although I thought Circuit Breaker could had made it to the regular Marvel Universe.

Elita-1, Chromia, Firestar and Moonracer appeared in one episode together (Elita-1 having a small appearance a bit later when the Aerialbots go back in time), but Arcee didn't appear until after the movie when the cartoon timeline jumped to the far future of 2007 (the Rodimus era). Marvel had Arcee, though given she was written by Furman it was yeah...
Curcuit breaker always reminded me of David Bowie's appearance at the end of Ghostbusters.

I tend to forget that Elita-Ones' group of ladybots were introduced before Arcee was in the film.

What I need to do is to win a fat old Euromillions Jackpot, and fund the dubbing of Headmasters and that by as many of the original voice cast that are still with us.

The current English dub is bloody awful

Ouch. My childhood.

The best Japan show was Supergod Masterforce. Ginrai fought a combiner by repeatedly summoning and dismissing his trailer and later saved the universe with the power of Burning Justice. Loved that show.
