Masterforce is a spin-off-ish sequel to the horrid Headmasters, where awful Japanese scripters continue the awful tradition of taking interesting Transformers and putting no effort at all, delivering us another horrid sample of Japformers.
Masterforce takes the concept of Powermasters and changes aliens into humans, transformers to lifeless mechas called transtectors and (of course) adds to the equation of nonsense a supernatural Decepticon emperor, named "Devil Z". So, we have Godmasters instead of Powermasters, battling to protect Earth from the evil forces of Devil Z, where for some reason other humans decided to drive Decepticons transtectors.
Although the second JG1 series has 5 or 6 interesting episodes and some moments, especially the ending, which makes it far better from the horrible Headmasters, it's still awful. Better read the Marvel & IDW comics if you want to know these characters.
