With the 1980's came toy based cartoons. Toy trends like Gobots, Transformers, G.I. Joe, Care Bears, Cabbage Patch Kids and My Little Pony were all the rage. Kids sucking their parent's hard earned money and replacing it with toys that were just going to get thrown in a garage sale eventually.
Here are just some of the cartoons that were some of my favourites.
Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors
M.A.S.K. Mobile Armored Strike Kommand
Voltron: Defender Of The Universe.
Then in the latter part of the 80's there were more and more toy based cartoons and a few movies that were based on those cartoons.
