Starriors were similar to Zoids and made by the same company Tomy. Most were humanoid like and each had a gimmick like moving windup guns or saws. There were also smaller wheeled ones with pull back motors. To me these toys were cooler than most gave them credit for. I played with these bots quite a bit, but took real good care of them. Below are 2 of my favorite Starriors, I have several more to post up at a later date.

I've been trying to find the name of these toys for years, thanks! If I recall, each came with a comic book that made it seem like the drivers didn't exist and the robots were beings themselves. In fact, I think they were kind of depressing, but I loved these toys!
