Day 97: Reptron, Racer-Bot ALPHA, Strong-Bot and Speed-Bot (Invisibility Force)

So many of these Playskool Go-Bot Invisibility Force toys are basic redecos of existing designs that I didn't want to spent too many days on them, so here's a group shot of four reissues with transluscent plastic designs. From left to right is Reptron , the dinosaur; Racer-Bot ALPHA (a redeco of the Speed-Bot muscle car ); Strong-Bot in his ATV version ; and finally another Speed-Bot in his original car mode . 

Day 96: Strong-Bot (Invisibility Force)

Strong-Bot is back in an all new design that sees him turn into a cement mixing truck. Because this was released as part of the Invisibility Force line of Go-Bots, he has translucent plastic parts. One of the few all-new designs released in a line that consisted mostly of redecos. 

Day 95: Fire-Bot and Racer-Bot BETA (Invisibility Force)

Blazing through some more Playskool Go-Bots redecos with group shots. Here, Fire-Bot has been recast in translucent plastic, making him part of the Invisibility Force. So has Racer-Bot BETA.  

Day 94: Preditron

Preditron is a noteworthy addition late in the Go-Bots line. It's not particularly for his design, which is just a redeco of the Big Adventure Cheetor toy with a remolded head. It's not for his finish, which is done with parts in translucent plastic because he's part of the Invisibility Force line. No, it's because he's the only villain character included in the otherwise friendly Go-Bots line. According to his minimal on-box bio, Preditron is a new incarnation of Beast-Bot turned bad.
