Starriors was a toy line and comic series distributed by Tomy and Marvel Comics in 1984.

Premise

Set on a future Earth, Starriors involves a trio of robotic groups created by future human scientists: the Protectors, Guardians, and Destructors, each created with a different role in insuring that a solar flare ravaged Earth would once again become habitable by humans. However, the Destructors and their leader, Slaughter Steelgrave, became fearful of deactivation upon the restoration of humanity, and thus sought to claim the planet for his own kind. They apparently succeeded in defeating all of the Guardians, and for a time Steelgrave's Destructors ruled the planet unopposed. However, a group of the enslaved Protectors eventually rediscovered their dedication to humanity, and with a few loyal Destructors and the last of the Guardians sought to reclaim Earth from Steelgrave.
