1988 was the first year fans had to live w/o cartoons to follow the new characters of
the year. What a shame too because this year featured some great new additions to
the Transformers Universe. Instead we followed their adventures in the comics by
Marvel. There are some fans who didn't care for the Pretenders but personally, I think
they rock! Their robot/vehicle modes look very Cybertronian. AND if you're looking
for a "missing link" in the evolution of TF's from the all techno- characters of
G1 to the partially organic characters of Beast Wars, look no further! Pretenders
were the first TF's to incorporate an organic element into the bodies. The idea was
that they han an organic shell which concealed the cybertronian within; a very
'pre-Beast Wars' concept if you ask me! Though I haven't been able to add individual character pages yet, please have patience. We'll get to it! For now, please enjoy the box pictures of the 1988 Transformers! |
