GoBots "Hornet" Transforming Robot (Tonka) *SOLD*
[RARE]
$25.00

(Sorry, out of stock...SOLD for $25.00) GoBots "Hornet" Transforming Robot, by Tonka. Back in 1983, a line of Popy and Bandai transforming robots were licensed to the Tonka Company in the US to be sold as...the GoBots! These were great little robots...well-made, diecast metal, highly detailed...but whereas they got the jump on the Takara Diaclone toys to be marketed in the US by almost a year, they were eternally doomed to second-place status when the Transformers began to be marketed...even though they were all from basically the same origins back in Japan. The GoBots were great, but their TV show tie-in was pretty bad! Just didn't have the same feel to it as the Transformers...it skewed a bit younger in its market. Here is a typical example of the GoBot line, "Hornet", a "Renegade Robot Monster" as he says on the packaging. This is the blue version of this robot..Mr. Pop Top has also seen a grey version. This one is MINT-CONDITION, and the only reason the pricing is a bit low is because the packaging card has a hole poked in it from some klutz at KayBee Toys trying to put it on the rack! A great price for a great robot...Out of stock.
