Amusing KO Movie Barricade

Saw this today at an unnamed location:

I haven't seen anything like this before. I didn't look at it in too much detail but it almost seems to be 10% larger than a deluxe with the legend's transformation. Made of a hideous looking plastic. But yeah, it's the packaging that slays me. Terrible resolution too. It almost like it could have been made on an inkjet. And I'm pretty sure it's a scene out of the video game.

I saw that a couple of weeks ago and yeah it looks pretty rubbish.

Moved to the Non TF section though

yeah ive seen these before too, shelves and baskets full of them... gotta love the "distortion android advanced"..

Was this spotted in one of those Toystores that sell nothing but KOs? Or was it a $2 shop... :D

ahh well ive spotted it in the same store at 2 different locations, a pretty reputable toy store.. am i allowed to say? jaydisc didn't say so i dunno if i'm meant to..

This was a Toy Kingdom. Well the ones I saw it at anyway. Was this Epping, Jay? Was there very much there (centre-wise) if that's where it's from.

There's a whole cringe factor about the KO for me. Just shows how easily it is for Hasbro to really drop the ball if they wanted to. I hope of course that we never find ourselves in such a situation.

yeah toy kingdom... ive seen them at epping and campbellfield...

It was the TK Clearance place in Northland

Good place to practise repainting I suppose (only if it was cheap)

The packaging is so bad, it's almost good! :D

I think that is enough to trick a less knowledgeable parent into buying it, particularly if its in a proper toy store and not a $2 or bargain shop.

When I saw it the first time I misread "Distortion" as Destron!?!

I saw one of those, only it was Ratchet with 'Bee's packaging.
