Come on, someone had to start it!

Robotmel thought..
Well Classics, Prime and other lines have a haul thread, why not 3rd party and KOs too!

So here it is folks, want to gush about that cheeky knock off you picked up online, that 3rd party homage which is now taking pride of place in your display then feel free to post your latest pictures or lists here!
The older KO haul thread (http://www.seibertron.com/energonpub/new-transformers-knockoff-thread-t57.php)hadnt been updated in a long while so I thought the inclusion of 3rd party items would be a welcome return to favour!



If I may start, this little beauty just arrived today...

Dr. Wu - DW-P07 Metal Storm

Wow! This is one piece of heavy artillery, and I mean heavy!
Poor old KO Optimus needs his shoulders tightening to weild this baby!

"Hold your fire!"

This is my first piece from the good Doctor and I gotta say, its pretty awesome! Its a great sculpt, very faithful to his G1 blaster with thick polished black paint and a hollow barrel going in approx half an inch deep.

I would definitely recommend picking up this for your Classics Prime, you wont regret it!

Popped into Bedford the other day and stuck my head in B&M Homestore to see if I could find anything?

This is the first time, as far as I can remember, that I have seen Roadbots on shelves and in the U.K. but I dont get out that much!?
These appear to be very parts-former but for £5.99 down from £14.99 they are worth a giggle!

Roadbots In Disguise!!

"Oi Bumblebee, get out of our photo!"

[Banjo-Tron]

Nice idea dude, I will put my bits up as they arrive. Hopefully it will be Giant this week (fingers crossed)

I have seen those Roadbots in Maplin before, I think! Amongst all of the overpriced electrical components, they have an eclectic mix of goods.

Popped into Bedford town, stuck my head in Poundland and picked up this cheeky little fella!

He's the Funtastic Robot Truck! He converts from robot to truck!

When he's not a truck he's a robot!

He loves play and have fun because he's a robot!

Most of all he loves being a robot!

Whilst visiting Northampton town for a browse, I found this fella staring at me from the shelf of Pound Stretcher only £4.99!

Telitoy Super Robot Squad Space Overlord!

Side Box

I instantly thought 'oversized classics deluxe'.

Front Box

Corner Box

This super robot comes in a generic package, same boxart but different figure in each one.
There are three to choose from, this onne being the silver sports car, which reminds me perhaps of 'Streak?

Rear Box

Theres also a yellow topless sports car, very Bumblebee, too much of an easy tag!
Taking prime position in the middle of these two is a very interesting attempt at a possible Optimus Prime.

[robotmel]

After getting this toy out of his package and having a little fiddle hes a pretty cool figure for an upscaled generic Classics Deluxe!

"But I am a robot in disguise!"

I thought there was an ear/antenna missing but its just how he molded! Phew!
He comes with molded closed fists but swivel waist which is nice.
Can anyone work out if this mold resembles any of our Classics?

"Grrrrrrr!"

The plastics are a little on the cheap side with swirls in the silver/grey plastic roof plus his arms need tightening slightly?

Baby got back!

At least this fella actually transforms!

"Come on 'Swipe get that T-cog sorted!"

MGT-01, PP05W and PP05M just arrived.

Gotta say, I love em all!

Ironhide and Ratchet look nice with my MP set, but are maybe a head to short.

They all look brilliant with my classics set, but now I need a bigger Optimus!

Good to hear!
Any chance of some comparison photos against a couple of Alternators or eqivelent Voyager figures?

I think I saw a picture recently with Ironhide alongside MP-12 Lambor which looked rather cool!

[Arctorro]

Hope this helps

Had to get Sideswipe out of storage for the photo, got VERY limited shelf space. So if he is miss transformed blame the Alternators gallery

They are really close to being the right MP size, but fit better with Classics Inferno and the other voyager toys (except Prime, he's to small).

They look AWESOME!
With the new down-sizing of Masterpiece figures so they fit some type of scale, these iGear figures will fit well alongside MP-12 Sideswipe.
Which Optimus Prime is that in the background, is he MP-01?
