Often regarded as “that other transforming robot series”, Challenge of the Gobots was enjoyed by kids around the globe in the 1980s along side Transformers, GI Joe, He-Man and dozens of other so-called “30 minute toy commercials” of the day. Although the success of the Gobots never reached the heights of The Transformers, there has always been a large following eager to both collect the vintage figures and revisit the 1980s cartoon.

Now available for pre-order on WBShop.com, Challenge of the Gobots The Series Volume 1 encompasses the first 30 episodes of the series and is the follow up to the original mini-series that was released back in 2011. You can pre-order on WBShop by clicking here for $29.99 and it is scheduled to release on May 6, 2014.

They’re back-at last! Cy-Kill! Leader-1! Cop-Tur! Turbo! Crasher! Scooter! The noble Guardian GoBots and the nefarious Renegade GoBots continue the war begun in The Battle for Gobotron across time and space in their epic series that comes to you factory fresh! With Earth as their chosen staging ground, the Renegades deploy Earth’s worst such as the deranged Dr. Braxis [voiced by Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’s Rene Auberjonois], in the quest to conquer Earth and then Gobotron, so it’s a good thing the Guardians have Matt, Nick and Ad of UNECDM on their side! This 30-episode, three-disc collection finds the amazing, metamorphing cyborgs taking their fight to Ancient Rome, lost Atlantis and back to Gobotron in a series of adventures that will leave you shouting for “MOAR”!
