I think this probably belongs in here more than it belongs in unauthorized TFs. I was looking at a questionably legit Generations Hot Spot on ebay and the seller was also selling these for about $15 so I picked one up. You can get the visual details from the photos, but it is essentially a scaled up deluxe TF PRiD Wheeljack in Deadend's colour scheme. I'm normally pretty wary of quality when it comes to KO's of legit TFs, but this would probably win a quality battle over the weaponizers from Hasbro - the only component that feels anyways fragile/brittle is the wings.

Comes with quality instructions!

Pretty clear where they took the box from

I'm probably a little scared by this "Mars Robot"

I bought a generations Hot Spot off a seller on eBay, who sounds like the same person, I skiped the wheeljack above as I knew it was a fake.


but now I'm really worried about how legit his products are (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Transformers-Prime-Weaponizer-BUMBLEBEE-Action-Figure-Robots-in-Disguise-New-/261195676379?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item3cd079badb)?


the hotspot seems totally legit, it's probably the best version of the mold for me. even though not a combiner. it's shipping container was only brown paper so the box was pretty knackered when I recieved it, but the toy was fine.

What an awful waste of time and plastic!

Though that Wheeljack figure is very spiffy.

There seem to still be a few from different sellers at different prices. Try typing "transformers weaponizer" into the search engine on ebay. Good luck :)

So you'll be getting the $35 one then? ;):D

Was the one you bought in dead end colours or the white Wheeljack colours?

The Deadend colours weren't quite right. Sourced this version from sirtoys.com but it doesn't seem to be available anymore:
