Macromasters, rawk!!
Let me get Mr. Luthor to tell you...

"WRONG".

I dunno, were those names used in Macromasters? I'll have to check that out.
Well, I know Sawtooth was, definitely. It's the one that jumped out at me and make me speak up, since I adore Sawtooth.

Okay, I'll count that, and round it up to half of the promised fifty thousand rad points, just 'cause. But no, I was thinking Starriors. The eighties' worst robot toys, but lord help me, I have an attachment to 'em.

Besides, their obligitory Marvel comic tie-in was rad. Worth noting, the "bad robot" leader's full name was "Slaughter Steelgrave" which I have more than once contemplated changing my name to.

I knew that I knew those names!
I had soem of them when I was a kid.
Awful toy, but I remember the comic was kinda cool.

Ooh, Fred's Variant Site has a big section on Starriors just 'cause nowhere else did at the time. They were cheesetastic.
