    I have a bit of a backlog of these

    Somebody ripped off an activator????!



    Advertising ripoff, but I think these are both technically original molds?


    Jumbo sized legends for everybody. Like the box art though

    Unlike the other toys, these are laudable attempts. Its says so on the packaging. There's also Ultramodern, but I'm not sure how they combine.

    It's hard to tell, but the one on the left is probably a knockoff of G1 Skydive (maybe with a bit of Dreadwind thrown in.)

    I love the way it tells us to 'COLLECT THE MALL'! As if we haven't been collecting the mall since 1984. :P

    Wow no posts since 2012? I swear there was another one of these threads flying around with more recent postings

    anyway, let the KreO ripoffs begin!



    I'm surprised that Kreo is even worth knocking off, though the quality of the vacuum metallisation looks pretty good.

    I think when the KO section was started after the last post of this topic, the "crazy KOs" get posted in there now as separate sightings/topics.

    I might move this topic there as well, as I might have missed it when that section was created.

    These KO Kreo dare to use the trademarked character names, but not the trademark of Transformers. Weird.

    The store on the corner outside Kmart Chaddy sells KO Kreons. Not sure about these particular ones. There's also a store in Knox which sells the KO Lego mini figs and may have these too.

    I remember that place. They had KO AOE figures last time I was there.

    Last time I went to Parklea Markets, there was this entire section dedicated to KO Lego
    I'll update this when I'm needing help finding particular figures

    It's been a while but I think it was at one of those variety stores at Broadmeadows Shopping Centre or Roxburgh Park.

    I haven't seen them in any other shops
