Help finding a bootleg?, "Invading Reptiles"

by Cobalt Agent » Thu Jun 02, 2011 11:40 pm

I made a thread on TFW2005 about this but aside from anecdotal evidence about having once had or seen them, nobody seems to be able to locate these things-

[url="http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-toy-discussion/405600-robot-reptile-bootleg-toys.html"]http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers...otleg-toys.html[/url]

Basically everybody knows about the popularly made insect transformer bootlegs that come individually or in packs of 4 usually at places like Big Lots or wherever. However I once got a giftset of four REPTILE transformers which included an iguana, a chameleon, an alligator, and a gila monster. They were packaged as "Invading Reptiles" and were produced by Leader Shine/Champion Crown. They're bootlegs of a Japanese, Animorphs-esque line featuring human warriors that turned into animals, which explains why all the insect bootlegs have silver heads with little detail as the bootleggers removed the human faces to make robot toys.

I can not for the life of me track down these things and it's killing me. Any help would be appreciated.
