      Not as far as I know, but I’m willing to be wrong. I only ever knew about the TV show.

        apparently it was robotech, but the toy lines, not the series; I was a huge robotech fan as a kid.

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exosquad

        The toys were often compared to the popular Robotech franchise, and Playmates acquired the license to Robotech to produce both toy lines under the same label, spawning rumors of a possible crossover.[13][unreliable source?] This possibility was considered by the authors but later abandoned. Today the Exosquad toys are considered highly collectible along with their boxes.

          Ah that makes sense. They did have a similar vibe so I could have absolutely seen a crossover happening. Maybe if the show hadn’t been canceled.

          Thanks for the info.
