    There was this anime that used to play on Fox, saturday mornings.
    It was years ago.

    The main characters disguised themselves as dinosaur skeletons in a museum and they transformed into robots.Oh,and the bad guy was a dragon.

    The reason i'm asking is not cuz I liked the show but the toys looked interesting.
    I just can't remember the name of the show.

    Dinozaurs, perhaps? That show was great.

    *hums theme song* I loved the ep where that Draka-character got amnesia and was trying to remember who he was. True, it was a clip show, but it was funny.

    they were very poor quality. I got the silver dragon guy and he broke the day I got him. Returned him and got my money back. Nevery bought another after that.

    I had a handful of the toys but the most I saw of the show was the VHS tape that was bundled with them (or was it a mail-away offer?).
    Gave the toys away when I moved house. Kinda wish I'd kept them now.

    Ugh, I hated that cartoon. The animation was probably one of the ugliest things about it. The 2D and 3D animation stood out against each other, and never blended well at all. Not to mention, it was just plain unfunny. I was glad when they stopped airing it. I remember vividly, that was around the time that FOX KIDS was starting to diminish in the quality of its cartoons and live action shows. It was just airing anything damn thing, pretty much like Cartoon Network is doing now.

    I remember that toon. I had the movie, and a few of the toys.

    Now that I watched ^ again... wow. That was pretty bad. The animation is horseshit, and the voice acting by that yellow dude is abysmal.

    Maybe it needs a re-imagining.

    Just to give a heads up.

    A majority of the RID voice cast was in this as well.

    Kim Strauss (RID Ultra Magnus) voiced the T-Rex

    Its not too long ago. Early 2000's.

    I remember it and trust me, there was nothing really awesome about it. It was generic and while not utterly trash, it was nothing really great.

    Just another anime to milk money...
