Many of us who were children of the 80s remember watching and playing with Transformers. It's fair to say that we often dreamed of being one ourselves. Well, in September of 1984, the ABC network showed us what it would be like to be human and also a sports car at the same time with Turbo-Teen. During a thunderstorm, teenager Brett Matthews looses control of his car on a wet road and crashes into the government laboratory building. At that very time, he is zapped by a molecular ray that fuses he and his car as one, essentially becoming a human Transformer.

I remember watching this every Saturday as a child. Very corny premise, but somehow cool to a kid.
ReplyDeleteThat model is cracking me up, though.
That model is crazy, it's like a transformer body with a human head!!
