Looking at them now though, with adult eyes, I can almost see the board meeting that devised the toys.
'Hmm, well there's GI Joe and there's Transformers. They're both very sucessful. Let's combine the two!'
Something I never particularly noticed before.

And its like a young-boy-action-wet-dream formula. Awesome theme song. Check. Vehicles / transforming / weapons / team of heroes. Check. Secret base. Check. They get called on a beepy thing when shit's going down. Check. They all run off from their day jobs and sit round a secret high tech table and a computer tells you EVERY EPISODE who they are and what their specialism is with a detailed breakdown of their abilities and codenames etc. Check.
Its like they distilled and bottled everything a small boy wants in a TV series.
