no, I mean those are spec for spec lego parts, I'm holding some of them right now; I'm not talking about being a buildable brick system, I saying those are actual clone/knock-offs of lego pieces

Specifically, just the first four items on the page, as the rest appear to be unlicensed stuff.
The four are new Lego-esque construction brick figure sets of Windblade, Bumblebee, Megatron, and Optimus Prime, all based on their Cyberverse designs, and all sporting the Nezha Transformers logo, Cyberverse art for Optimus and Bumblebee, and Nezha's own box art in their stock images.

And I saw on TFW2005 someone had suggested a repaint of that new figure with the pilot could be Sari Sumdac and I have to say, that'd be an awesome figure for SELECTS

They are, though I don't think that's illegal either. Anyone know?

Lego lost their patent (patents?): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lego_clone
Courts around the world reduced Lego blocks to a functional tool or machine, like a nail or a car. So it's fair game!
And don't forget Transformers Kre-o!

All of the new characters are figures of Chinese mythology adopting robot forms.
Nezha is obviously the small boy deity who becomes the red car bot.
The winged pink fembot is Xiaolong Nü, female protagonist of the 1959 wuxia novel The Return of the Condor Heroes by Jin Yong
The evil purple fembot/woman with the big headdress is Shi Ji Niangniang, based on her appearance in the 2003 Chinese animated series The Legend of Nezha, in which she was the main antagonist.
The big yellow bot is Lei Zhenzi, whom we've already seen in toy form.
The skinny green bot is Tu Xingsun, whom we've also already seen in toy form.
