Description One of a series of redesigns I have done of the characters from the original 80’s Gobots TV show, in the style of Transformers Animated.

Sparky was really inspired by Transformer Arcee, almost a Gobot version, with the gun and colour scheme. Besides, way too many of the Gobots are red, so i wanted a bit of variety! Kept the head very similar to the original and i imagine her to be the feisty warrior type and the original Sparky had a bit of attitude so i guess it works. C&C welcome of course!

If they hadn't initially had such campy names (Cy-kill/Cycle, Cop-tur/copter), that toy line might've worked

Yep, certainly too much red in the series... half of the Guardians wore that color actually x_x
Aside from being a female, I do like this one, especially the new vehicle mode, it's marvelous and one of the better ones up till now.
I guess Sparky thus strike me as a feisty one... even her name implies that

She's very cool. I particularly like the transforming stun-gun egg.

I really think Sparky is beautiful The hair look to her helmet is really cute, and keeping the green goggles really makes it complete. I like how her armor looks more like a space suit. It makes her looks more like her own type of character rather than like another Transformer. Her futuristic car alt mode is really awesome and has a very space age feel to it too which I love. However, I don't think giving her high heels was necessary since Sparky is supposed to be a fighter. Her shoes should be flat or more like fighter boots.
