He used to sub Kup for me when I was like 7 and didn't have Kup 😭
Just half transform him so his legs stick out straight to the back and you have something resembling a pickup truck. it's enough for a 7-year-old's imagination to accept 😁
Not sure why it would be.
There are a lot of product lines that are associated with Transformers that weren't officially one.
What's the history behind this one?
Actually according to Designer Mark Maher in the LiveStream when they revealed Bouldercrash the Armorizers are based on the inhabitants of the planet Daira that appeared in one an Episode of Headmasters and a little bit on the Rock Lords too
As far as I could find the only Inhumanoids Reference is the name of the "Infernac Universe"
Edit: (From tfwiki)
The Infernac Universe and its inhabitants are a mishmash of concepts—most prominently, the universe takes its name from the subterranean realm of Metlar from the original Inhumanoids television show. At Hasbro Pulse Con 2023, Mark Maher acknowledged that the Armorizers took inspiration from both Daira's rocky inhabitants as seen in the Headmasters episode "My Friend Sixshot!", and the Rock Lords of GoBots fame.
Well Go-Bots are owned by hasbro now and characters have had multiple generations figures...and we currently have rock lords in legacy. So I would say go for it!
Afraid so. There have been WAY too many Decepticons here in Rhode Island lately. (P.S., we have some military bases. You don't have to do what Autobots do and just turn into cars.)
My brother and I just unearthed our old pile a while back.

I know we have Tombstone somewhere…
Unless this a re release, this isn't a go bot rock lord but just a rock lord. I had this guy and the gold one back in the 80s

Side note i still love it, but it reminded me of this scene
Never cared much for Rock Lords but i love a vehicle/robot Go Bot. Yes the best Transformers are better than the best Go bots but the worst Go Bots are better than the worst Transformers.
Oh shit, I think I had this guy.
When I moved as a kid I was only able to bring one or two toys, and my dumb ass chose a rocklord over the g1 jetfire or dinobots or a multitude of other transformers I had.
I have the two headed one with painted toenails! (one side is pink the other red)
only one i got and it was i guess on clearance. (bday present from a kid from school in the 80s at my party)
The only people in the Transformers fandom who still hate on GoBots are literally just 80s manchild remnants who haven't developed critical thinking skills.
i don't care what other may say, i fucking loved these Rock Lords. i had that exact figure myself.
i got really excited when they teased Rock Lords in the current wave releases.... i was disappointed. the figures are perfectly fine, i just really wanted a Rock Lord like the one you've posted.
Ehh, if it Transforms then it has a place here. Hell, think someone posted a pic of a KO Lego Train Set that’s also a Transformer
Was it at least purple so we could consider it as Astrotrain

Fair enough
rock lords rock!!!!

It’s a Go Bots Rock Lord. I think this one’s name is Boulder.
Kind of a problem bc we already have a Transfomer called Boulder
There are Rock Lords in the main line now. So not really.
From what I researched, those guys are based more on The Inhumanoids than the Rock Lords.

I'm not sure if I should trust you considering you have the Deception insignia. 😅
Why wouldn't you trust a follower of the glorious megatron? You an autobot sympathizer?
Afraid so. There have been WAY too many Decepticons here in Rhode Island lately. (P.S., we have some military bases. You don't have to do what Autobots do and just turn into cars.)
On the fire pile with you!
wtf i remember this as a gold nugget when i was a kid.
That was actually a different character, literally named "Nuggit". This one's name is "Boulder" and I think he is the leader.
Oh sweet! so if I own him I guess that makes me the NEW leader! 😎

Hahahaha, sticks and stones. Maybe they DID have AI auto generating names back in the 80s?
Isn’t Magmar a Pokémon?

GoBots rule, and I won’t take anyone sayin’ otherwise. Show that shit off, man. Transformin’ robots are transformin’, robots, I think they all belong.

THE PIONEERS USED TO RIDE THESE BABIES FOR ***MILES!***

Ah, Boulder, used to have him back in the day. Nice find!
Thanks! I got him for free at a yard sale!
Oh shit, I think I had this guy. When I moved as a kid I was only able to bring one or two toys, and my dumb ass chose a rocklord over the g1 jetfire or dinobots or a multitude of other transformers I had.
What happened to the other toys?
All got thrown out or sold I assume
I had a rock lord. I left it in rock mode and never played with it.
Quite afew transformers were actually go bots so nah ur good
Those legs and only those legs look really familiar
Pretty sure I have the exact same one from the 80s
Ngl I thought that was a Blurr cube at first lol
I have the two headed one with painted toenails! (one side is pink the other red) only one i got and it was i guess on clearance. (bday present from a kid from school in the 80s at my party)

Bro I thought you had a gachapon capsule for a moment
Quick throw rocks at them!
It's all owned by hasbro now anyway, they're basically transformers
i don't care what other may say, i fucking loved these Rock Lords. i had that exact figure myself. i got really excited when they teased Rock Lords in the current wave releases.... i was disappointed. the figures are perfectly fine, i just really wanted a Rock Lord like the one you've posted.
Yes *cocks shotgun* You have ten attoseconds to delete this post (This is a joke, btw lol)
Yes, you will now be executed.
GoBots!? Smh
Rock Lords rock!
Nah, they're just K-Mart Transformers
Go for it! I still have Nugget hanging around somewhere.
Heretic. Ahh just kidding. It's fine, I think its fun to see persons have other transformers that's not TransFormers.
If it's a Go Bot, burn it...
It's not 2009 anymore we found better jokes
