Line 34:
* [[The Cape]] (Leader-1)
* [[Cerebus Syndrome]] (Though diffucult to really notice, around the start of the Last Engineer/Master Renegade storyline the series gets a tad more serious and starts delving into the divine origins of the Gobots. This is best shown in that the storyline is kicked off after Turbo is horribly wounded by the Renegades and it is explicitly stated that if he is not healed soon he will '''DIE'''.
* [[Cold War]]/[[The Great Politics Mess
* [[Co-Dragons]] (Coptur and Crasher)
* [[Combining Mecha]] (The Puzzlers)
Line 63:
* [[Giant Foot of Stomping]] (Crasher's main attack is to stomp the ground, sending a crackling streak of energy along the ground toward her target.)
* [[Hanna-Barbera]]
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: [[Star Trek Deep Space Nine|Odo]] provided the voice of the mad scientist.
* [[Higher
* [[Hollywood Cyborg]] (The GoBots in general; but also the Last Engineer, who still looks human but with bionic bits.)
* [[Hot Scientist]] (Anya Turgonova)
Line 70:
* [[Humongous Mecha]] (Zod)
* [[Invisibility Cloak]] (the Stealth Device, described as a hologram that works across the entire electromagnetic spectrum)
* [[Iron Curtain]] (The writers could never seem to decide whether Anya Turgonova was from China or the U.S.S.R., alternately mentioning "Siberia" and "The People's Republic." Since it was the [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future|Twenty Minutes Into the]] [[The Great Politics Mess
** Given that most of Russia is in Asia, an Asian-looking Russian is not unrealistic.
* [[Keep Circulating the Tapes]]: Can never, ever be re-released or re-aired, due to the massive amount of legal tape due to copyright issues. Warner Brothers owns the cartoon but the character trademarks are owned by Hasbro (who acquired the property in the early 1990s when they bought Tonka, and also own the Transformers franchise) and character designs are owned by Bandai. Hasbro has recognized the popularity of the line however; they reused the Leader-One name for a character in Transformers Armada, created a homage to Crasher in the form of "Fracture" for the movie toyline, outright reintroduced Bugbyte as the big bad for a series of convention comics, and greenlighted Takara producing a box set of Gen1 mini-bots redecoed in the color of various Go-Bots characters. The characters and mythology of the original GoBots have been incorporated into Fun Publications' ''[[Transformers Timelines (Franchise)|Transformers Timelines]]'' as the Transformer-equivalents in their part of the Transformers [[Multiverse]].
