Rock Lords toys were a spin-off toy line to the GoBots, released in 1986 after the movie GoBots: Battle of the Rock Lords. The transforming rocks came with weapons such as swords, guns and axes. Like all transforming toy lines they were split into “good guys” who were led by Boulder and “bad guys” who were led by Magmar.
Unfortunately the Rock Lords were not a successful toy-line, Transformers were always getting the market share of the transforming toys, they did however last 3 series before being cancelled. There were also unreleased Rock Lords toys that never made it to the market such as the Stone Head play set and Crackpot who came in meteorite colours.
