About GoBots
Challenge of the GoBots follows the heroic Guardians and the evil Renegades, robots from the planet Gobotron who bring their war to Earth. The Hanna-Barbera series ran for 65 episodes from 1984 to 1985, and the story continues in the 1986 theatrical film GoBots: Battle of the Rock Lords.
Good to know
The five-part miniseries from 1984 sets up the war, so start there before the 1985 season. The film introduces the Rock Lords and stands apart from the rival Transformers cartoon, which came from a competing toy line.
