Like! Like?: Transformable Edition

My seething hatred for the Michael Bay 'Transformers' films led me to wonder about the often overlooked cousins of the Transformers from my youth...The Go-bots. I scoured the web in search of others who may be wondering, underneath the same bright star as I and Fievel the Mouse, about them as well. Could they make for a better robotic smash 'em up film than the drivel that is 'Transfomers' and 'Revenge of the Fallen'? The world may never know. I did, however, manage to find some neat-o Gobot art and actually some fantastic Transformers art in the process....reminding me of my once beloved morphing metal buddies. Hope you enjoy these works of art, if you do be sure to click on the links provided and give the artists a loving message in our honor.
