Funny Transformer Ripoffs & KOs

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this thread.

No, it's not. I've moved it into the non-TF section

To be fair, this isn't about 'giving publicity to KOs'. It's more about mocking them for being so bad.

Also, the ones I mentioned weren't even based on real TF moulds AFAIK. They were just a lame imitation of Transformers, not pirated versions of real ones.

Yes, I'm aware. I mentioned this so you know _why_ I moved it

Saw today at BigW, a set of transformable trucks, all with the cab half resembling Armada Optimus and a different back half to form a different sort of truck (one was a crane truck, another was a garbage truck). And each one turned into a robot resembling the Armada Optimus. They are from the same HK source as the Legends KOs I saw at The Warehouse last year. These were slightly smaller than deluxe, and were only about $4 each.
They aren't replicas, but it should still count as an infringement on Hasbro's intellectual property by resembling their registered products.

I have a KO Lio Kaiser - terribly undersized, and for some reason one of the arms (I think it's Hellbat) is replaced with a KO of Double Dealer (Clouder)!! Har! I also once received a KO Defensor (called "Fireeninebot") which had a red Hot Spot and Groove had red tyres.

That's awesome!

I love how they ingeniously tackled the problem with Tankor's wing kibble

Has anyone else seen the miniaturised version of Fort Max?
I seen him here in Sydney the other day, is it really worth picking up?

Think it was only like $15 from memory.

Just noting this previous posting, as this topic was probably started before we had a KO section to move it to... and since that section is used for information purposes not promotional purposes, I've moved it into there now. (and who says we can't have a bit of entertainment on the side, of the really bad ones)
