Just so people know, Robotix was a construction kit line by Milton Bradley (subsidiary of Hasbro) in the same sort of toy as Meccano construction kits or Erector Sets and K'Nex. A short lived comic and cartoon were made to try and promote these sets. The comic was published by Marvel while Sunbow AND Marvel Productions produced the cartoon for the Super Saturday/Super Sunday/Super Week show, to promote this line with Jem, Bigfoot and the Muscle Machines and Inhumanoids, That's why they were able to recycle music pieces from G.I. Joe/Transformers and Inhumanoids as they were ALL by the same composers; Johnny Douglas and Robert Walsh and use the same Los Angeles based talent pool of actors for the characters. And YES four bars of the theme do sound like the song 'Ghostbusters' by Ray Parker Jr. It was a coincidence. The toys, cartoon and mini comic only lasted a year. The characters sadly did not appear like the construction kits, with the exception of Argus and there was no good vs. evil conflict. Just build the biggest motion toy that you can through multiple parts.

I absolutely loved this cartoon and toys as an 80s kid! Didn't get to watch the cartoon much as a kid have no idea what time it came on or channel, we didn't have cable back then just the 3 channels and PBS :)

The toys were cool. They had motors in the box and you could build stuff and the motors would make them move

I had the two big good guy robotic figures. They tended to break at the joints, but they were easy to fix. The wires were strong, the motors good and durable. The ratchet pieces sucked though.

tbh it was almost like a mishmash of lots of other shows, it used lots of soundbites,voice actors from transformers for instance

Thank you for this. This brings back fond memories of the 80’s.

I just watched this show the other day it brings back lot's of good memories of how good it was. Hasbro,Marvel,Sunbow productions and Toei animation were on top.It's too bad kids today don't get the same treatment I did growing up the 80s still rock.

It's like Transformers G1 remixed: instead of ancient robots flying to Earth getting involved with humans with the bad guys wanting to exploit their resources, humans fly to a planet of robots where the humans are the resources. That, plus voice actors, sound effects, music shared with G1 too. And Peter Cullen voices a evil leader this time!

Peter Cullen also voiced Venger, another bad guy in the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon.
