> Why, it was "Lion-O", of course. The others, as far as I can remember, were Cheetara, Panthro, Tigra, Kit and Kat, Snarf, and later on Bengali. It's the villains I have trouble remembering: Mumm-Ra, Vulture-man and Jackal-man are all that come to mind.

Yeah... Panthro was what I meant when I said Puma. The brain is the first thing to go. :-}

> > Soundwave was always a favorite of mine. right up there with Ratchet. But my favorite, and I cannot remember his name to save my life, was this little brown guy who turned into wither a jeep or a tank - I don't recall which. Next time I'm home I'll have to watch my "Transformers" tapes and find out which one I'm talking about!

> I think the one you're describing is "Brawn", who was a jeep. "Warpath" was a tank, and a certifiable wacko besides, but he was some magenta color rather than brown. We need to see more magenta tanks on TV, I think.

I may be thinking of Brawn, but I recall his name starting with a "G," though I may well just be suffering acid flashbacks. Who knows? :-}

> I have a confession to make. As much as I dug the Transformers, I never once saw the movie. I have no idea why; I always planned to, but just never did. Not that it matters a whole lot; I know everything that happened in it anyway, and there's no way I'm going to walk into the video store and rent it now, unless I can get a small child to come with me and pretend it's for him. Or maybe Darien. ;-)

I don't think I could take it, emotionally. :-}

P.S.: During this part of the thread, I was listening to "Old Days" by Chicago. How appropriate! :-}
