those RM KOs are pretty much at all the dollar general/family dollar stores. the starsaber/victory leo one is the better of the 3.

Though, I've got a bit of fondness for those G2 bike KOs. They're kinda fun, and the yellow one is pretty well executed for a bike alt mode, IMHO.

Remember the Ghost G1 Mirage auction? I just bought a clear black version of the G1 mold. When I have them, I'll share, but they are coming from overseas, so bare with me.

Yes. They are reverse-engineered remakes.
High value.

Extremely old knock off.. I'd say about 15 years or so. Surprised he survived that long.

Along with his car buddies (he was the waist iirc), the black truck (legs), red sportscar (torso) and a blue twintwist clone (arms) they became a gestalt of some kind.

Anybody reckon they have any information on it? I dont own the other 3 anymore (broke/mom threw em out/lost in time and space) but i'd sure love to get this one complete again. I reckon this was my first "transformer" (although Scoop probably came first)

That's a KO from the Brave series, it's not a TF per see

The one you have is part of a combiner called Land Bison. I know of the KO, he appeared here in Holland 15 or so years ago.

"Super Transformable Transform Warrior" seems to be a shrunken version of Cybertron Hardtop painted to look like Movie Autobot Ratchet, with a bizarre new weapon, with a molded in Earth planet cyber key!

Then there is his friend, rainbow Scattorshot!

These are the first knockoffs i've seen of these molds. They are both just under 4 inches tall as robots.

KO Ratchet/Hardtop's weapon seems to be two of his original molded together with a shorter barrel.

Hardtop/Ratchet KO is transformed wrong. Which is why you can't actually see his Lower arms and fists, in the package. He's supposed to look the other way, and the car hood is his back.

I don;t think his waist rotates though. Which means you're pretty screwed unless the shoulders can come off, like the real version, so you can swap the arms in robot mode.

You can tell they simplified the design somewhat, also, this knockoff is shorter a bit, I think.

What uncreative colours...

Sat Sep 29, 2007 5:37 am

Found a large scale Combaticon Vortex today,

and picked up another "backroom commandant", different colour than my other one, darker blue and new style packaging, looks more similar to the new predacon packaging,

The quality of my other backroom commandant is better though,

Nice, very perty. Did you find him at one of the usual suspect stores?

Check out these ko's from this ebay seller.

Cybertron Starscream, Classics Megatron, Energon Bulkhead,
G1 Optimus Prime and G1 Combiners. I'm tempted by the low price of Cybertron Starscream :-?

I've been eyeing the Bulkhead and Sharkticon KOs... I just got my shoeformers (cheapie version), and they are bad, so I'm kind of off the KO wagon for a bit. :-?
