Omega Prime was the American name of God Convoy. There has never been an Omega Convoy.
3. For which toy line does three come first, first come second, and second not come at all?
Voltron III's cartoon aired first, Voltron I's second, and Voltron II's cartoon never aired at all.
4. Which was the first non-tin toy line that produced characters at 100% scale?
Takara's Microman was a series of toys based upon 6" visitors from space.
5. Put these in chronological order:
Chogokin Big Scale Ships Mini-mini/Popinika Jumbo Machinder
Mini-Mini/Popinika Jumbo Machinder Chogokin Big Scale Ships
6. Which combiner, though often found beaten up and discarded, is rarely ever found "Black and Blue"
Arbegas is often found beaten up, but since the blue member's plastic was unstable and broke down over time, he's usually found "Black and Red".
7. Put these in chronological order:
Beast Machines Machine Wars Beast Wars
Machine Wars (brief Kaybee exclusive) Beast Wars Beast Machines
8. The first Sentai series was originally based on which Marvel comic?
If you said Spider-man, good for you!...but you're wrong. The Japanese Spider-Man cartoon was probably the inspiration for the first Sentai series, but that series was actually intended to be a Japanese version of The Avengers.
Hope you guys enjoyed this!

Cool thread and good idea Shaxper! Here is another one. 1. The Transformer Roadbuster had his roots not in a Takara toy but another company. What other character and company did he come from? 2. What do Voltron, the Greek Alphabet, a Godaikin, ships, and robots have in common? . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1. Roadbuster came from Dovorak, a super-real robot like of Takatoku. His original character was known as Mugen Calibur.
2. Albegas. Yes, those Voltron II triple combination robots were known as alpha, beta, and gamma robot. Their ship was the Godaikin Albegas ship where you can find the same alpha beta gamma symbols on (so I was told). Interesting addition to the story-- there is an old Greek statue somewhere (purportedly) in New York that deals with the same 3 man theme and alpha, beta, and gamma.
