We were brainstorming on Monday night for next years fanzine.
My contribution is already decided.
And utterly predictable.

If so, it would need to go by the true name of ROBO MACHINES.
(Someone asked me if we had any Gobots on Toyfu Saturday and my imediate response was 'as in Robo Machines?')

Matt will be pleased to learn we brainstormed a couple of ideas, so in an ideal world we won't take as long as this year!

You say that, but my idea is very much G2 Gobots, just not those G2 Gobots. Possibly G2bots.

Are we allowed to pitch ideas for this now? I really enjoyed going through the Rock Lords film and writing a guide to that continuity when we did that, so can I write a guide to the Robo Machines continuity as presented in the Eagle comic stories? I know it's different to the Gobot cartoon and I have all the original Eagle issues.

I wish to do a story featuring Stron-domez and Zod Monster in the UK Robo Machines comic strip continuity.

My suggestion: THE CHALLENGE OF (reading about) THE GOBOTS Haha I do like that, though Turnbull's suggestion is Go Bot Or Go Home which is also magnificent
