    My missus bought my young bloke a shut up toy (cheap but keeps the kid quiet). Exactly the same as movie legends Bumblebee but in a deluxe size. Broke in 3 seconds. Had some of those armada KO's that lasted 2 seconds. Jayden ended up duct taping the bulky arms and guns onto his Mcdonalds animated toys. He has a great future in kit bashing.

    Reminds me of the Transformers I got from the Mega Transformers Show Bag at the Sydney Royal Easter Show this year. Half those toys fell to pieces as soon as they were touched! :/


    Check out Aircraft Transformable - it's a KO of Galaxy Shuttle but with the head, hands and feet of Lion Voltron!!

    Here's a KO Predaking I found in China:


    This one at a Wal-Mart in China:


    These KOs I found in Malaysia:

    That Kung Fu Panda Heinlad KO is hilarious (and horrifically mistransformed)! It's interesting how they've retooled the head to make it look more like a panda and also removed the tail, but kept it as an... accessory? What's also funny is how they've replaced the head of Po the Panda with the head of a real panda!

    That Olympic-robot is weird. It has the head of Cybertron Defence Scattorshot but with the body of Shogun Warriors' Gaiking! And of course, it's ripping off the Olympic mascots!

    lol, I might give a crap about the Olympics if the mascots united to form a giant robot.

    I don't know how that would worked with the Athens ones though... Pretender crossover perhaps?

    Where do Gobots fit into all of this?

    I'm no lousy Gobot-lover, but to be fair, the Gobots came before Transformers - so technically it was the Transformers who ripped off Gobots. Although they did a damn good job of it and now the Transformers (quite literally) own Gobots. I say this because:
    + The Gobots line was cancelled due to competition from Transformers being too good
    + Tonka, the company that owned Gobots, was later purchased by Hasbro! Thus Hasbro now owns the rights to Gobots.
    + The name "Gobots" was used twice in G2, once as the name of an individual Transformer then again as the name of a sub-group (later to become the CR/RiD Spychangers).
    + "Leader-1" is the name of a Mini-Con in Transformers Armada
    + It is official canon that the Gobots' universe was inadvertantly destroyed by Megatron, forcing some surviving Gobots to flee into the Transformers' dimension and rebuilding themselves as Autobots and Decepticons (although I guess they still keep their organic brains).
