Thing you have to remember is that Play With This Too is unlike any "third party Transformer" company out there. They are based in the US, and all the owners are publically known former Hasbro employees. They simply cannot make copies of Hasbro characters legally. They know they can make stuff that generally evokes Transformers themes enough to maybe interest fans, but they have to make things original enough to be considered new characters and not piss off Hasbro's legal department. That's why this is a line of 6 inch tall heroic space men fighting space monsters, who just HAPPEN to look a little like some Transformers characters.

Oh, they just announced there will be an all-white figure made for customizers to paint up as this like, and it will haver a fun box:
I hear what you are saying but I think the line of similarity to the '88/89 Hasbro stuff is crossed enough and shrinking the head a little won't add much to any legality that isn't already there.
