Go Bots: Battle Of The Rock Lords
GoBots: Battle of the Rock Lords is an American animated film based on the Gobots toy and TV franchise. This movie was produced by Hanna-Barbera (the same company responsible for the Challenge of the GoBots series) and released to theaters in 1986 by Clubhouse Pictures. It was also the last film released by Clubhouse Pictures. It featured the first appearance of the Rock Lords who were given their own toyline after the movie. These new characters featured the guest voices of Margot Kidder, Telly Savalas and Roddy McDowall. The TV series regulars all reprised their usual roles.
Although initially a separate and competing franchise, Tonka's Gobots became the intellectual property of Hasbro after their buyout of Tonka in 1991. Subsequently, the universe depicted in the animated series Challenge of the GoBots was established as an alternate universe in the Transformers franchise.
