Tokyo Terminators

Tokyo Terminators banner

**The Tokyo Terminators** are one of the teams in Mutant Football League. Their logo is a robot head and their team colors resemble those of the Washington Commanders. The team consists of all BruiserBots. Their stadium is the Croakyo Dome situated in Tokyo, Japan and is a parody of the Tokyo Dome, where thirteen of the American Bowl games were played during 1986 to 2005.

> *"The Terminators are an all robot team, made up of heavy armored BruiserBots and high performance, BulletBots. This is a quick strike passing offense led by QB sharpshooter, Tashiro Maguro, receiving ace, Otomo Akira and a big, bruising back, Akinori SumoNinja (yep, he's slow, but he goes down slow too). They don't have much of a defense, but in all honesty, they put up enough points that they don't need one."* (Mutant Football League, Team Scouting)
