Names: Cometroid, Ty-Grrr, Astro Lion, Comet Cat, Tuskor, Dinosorb, Crocobite, Rhinorb, Orbear, and Gore-IllaFaction: Heroic or Evil MeteorbsApproximate US release date: October 11, 1986 I have a vague memory of seeing or even playing some of the Meteorbs as a kid, but I’m fairly certain I never owned any of them. The concept of them is certainly familiar enough for any kid from the 1980s. From GoBots to Transformers to Rock Lords to Mask, it seemed like everything had a transforming gimmick at one point or another. The Meteorbs were unique in the Masters of the Universe line in that…
I just remember the first time I saw these on shelves, a wave of dismay washed over me and I thought, "If they're putting out stuff this lame, then MOTU is done." I wasn't far off, although there were still the final regular figure waves in 1987, including some pretty cool ones.
