Separated at birth?

How many Transformers can you find that coincidentally look really similar to something else?

For example, I've always thought that Mighty Orbots bore a very strong resemblance to G1 Blaster:

Can anyone else find any others? Remember that it must be (as far as you know) coincidental and not intentional like say Animated Bulkhead's resemblance to Crunch from Mighty Orbots, or G1 Jetfire's resemblance to Macross' VF-1S etc.

:cool: :D

If you look up Mighty Orbots on wikipedia the combined form was an out and ripoff from another show. They just changed the colours.

Gotta love the 80's!

Kyle: Um... that's not much of a coincidence considering that they're two different versions of Arcee (and both colour schemes inspired by G1 Arcee). I'm looking for similarities that have occured coincidentally.

It should be between a Transformer and a non-Transformer (perhaps I should've specified that in my first post). :)

Nice! :D

Yeah, the gestalt robot form was ripped off from a Japanese mecha from Bandai called Godmars (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNhujQBfRlY&feature=related). Slightly different colours and the face was changed a bit (Godmars' head has a smaller robot head instead of a mouth! pic (http://hima-toy.cocolog-nifty.com/photos/uncategorized/2008/03/28/7_6.jpg)). Also, the individual Godmars robots have elemental powers, much like the individual Orbots! As the wiki article says, Tonka filed a lawsuit against Mighty Orbots (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXFvqfEkdrU), despite the fact that Bandai's Godmars model was NOT used by Tonka for GoBots. (-_-)

Um... perhaps you didn't notice the Davy Jones pic in that link?

I'm not dumb... :o

The early Kamen Riders/Masked Riders rocked!!! Loved Masked Rider Black/Black RX when I was a kid. When I watch the early ones again now they're still good '70s/'80s cheesy fun... :D

Yeah Kamen Riders Are Awesome, if this thread wasnt just for things that look coincidentally like Transformers characters I'd mentioin that Kamen Rider Accel and Megaman 10's Nitroman look kinda similar (oops just mentioned it anyway) well i dont know any coincidental look-a-likes, but i am interested in seeing what other people show
