Hmm.. I was just looking through these two. If anyone remembers, they did
have the Robotech cartoon on the air in Flint, Michigan for a year or so,
and that was my first taste of Robotech. I also got several Transformers in
that time, including the Autobot Jetfire, which was a dead on to teh
Valkryies (sp?). Does anyone know how Hasbro got this, was it sanctioned, or
a ripoff? Any infor would be appreciated!
