I notice that the chest doesn't separate as in the official toy. Any other differences/ simplifications, and does it transform okay?

http://cgi.ebay.com/Transformers-Classi ... 286.c0.m14
supposedly this is a knock off. an ebay member contacted me letting me know that it isn't the fansproject cliffjumper upgrade set. i however already paid for it. I guess i can't complain though, nowhere does the auction claim to be the fansproject set. I will report back whenever i receive the item to comment about the quality.

it's not as simple as that. generally when people make knock offs they use cheaper materials to make a quick buck. I mean, who wants a cheaply made piece of crap? that being said, even though the person who contacted me complained and got their money back, I'm going to take my chances with the item and hope it's a decent enough quality for display.

I haven't seen these KOs before,they are of brimstone,leobreaker and scrouge(who wasn't there)
Brimstone and leobreaker come in diffenrent colors and for a buck they seem like a little project.

I found similar knockoffs at a Dollar Store yesterday. I picked up the Brimstone one because I thought it was cute, and painted the right colours, surprisingly!
What's weird is that my normal-sized Brimstone had a wonky left arm, and so does the mini one - I wonder if there was a systematic problem with the mold.

It's been a long time since I've seen the KO Dinobots. Where did you get it and how much did it cost you?
