New Transformers Knockoff Thread
Re: New Transformers Knockoff Thread
I picked up a knockoff based on the mold previously used for G2 Motormouth, G2 Ironhide, Rid Ironhide and Universe Hoist II. It's the same mold, but shrunken to about 2/3 size and no more gun. Overall not a bad knockoff, he's now Micromaster size. Maybe I could consider him a WST G2 Ironhide, except he's bright yellow. I'm attaching him in a picture of him next to the original use of the mold, G2 Motormouth.

Re: Knock Offs
Man.... where do you find these things? I've only seen the Easter Basket Airealbots, KO Combaticons, Constructicons, and Protectobot sets @ Walgreens for Christmas, and some Cybertron Knockoffs at a gas station.
The knowlege... it fills me... it is NEAT!

Re: New Transformers Knockoff Thread
There is a seller on ebay who seems to be selling various accessories to G1 TFs. Knockoffs by the looks, but at least he's making them.
http://toys.search.ebay.com/_Action-Fig ... ssZlinanma
His parts include Optimus Prime fists, Wheeljack wings, Gnaw tail, Fasttrack's gun, and Omega Supreme's clips.
Unrelated to the above, here is a mishmash knockoff combiner.
Body - Cybertron Clocker and Cybertron Legends Soundwave.
Arms - Cybertron Scrapmetal and Cybertron Shortround
Legs - Energon Strongarm and Cybertron Overhaul
Fists - Gobots Power Warrior Grungy?
Feet - Unknown?
Head - Unknown?

I recently learned that knock offs violate eBay's rules even if the seller states that the item is a KO. So if you are annoyed with Transformers KO listings on eBay, simply report the offender to eBay.

Are they high quality or are they like the power bots KOs I bought for £1 from Big D;'s and break after one pose?

Wow! I just got back from the local JC Penny, and they had some knockoff TFs there! In their boys section, they have tshirts with toys attached to them. One of the sets was a shirt with two KOs... a G1 Bumblebee and some other G1 minibot KO. I had seen those there before in the past though.
The ones that really surprised me though were the KOs from the Cybertron line. There were three, but ATM I can only remember two: Vector Prime and Hot Shot.
I plan on going back either after work today or tomorrow and if nothing else, snapping some pics.

I think most open minded people have no problem with KO Transformers on eBay or anywhere else, but it is when sellers on eBay sell KO Transformers as legit or original Transformers. That is when we get annoyed or downright angry...

I agree. Those are the people that I can't stand. They hurt other sellers and make the eBay less trusting for buyers.

Re: New Transformers Knockoff Thread
- Motto: "Doing things my own way and never giving up!"
I was just in Tuesday Morning, and they had K.O. Optimal Optimus and TM2 Megatron (the red dragon) on these rediculously big blister cards. They looked to be the right size, and were 9.99 each. On the back of the card they had a picture of RID Megatron, but none on the shelf. Optimal Optimus had the fron guns and his prime head seprate on the card as one big piece that had to be assemble, and the same with Dragon Meg's dragon arms.
They also had a K.O. Lioconvoy that looked a little too big, but I never had him, so I'm not sure. On the back of Lios package was pictures of K.O. BM Rattrap, Heinland, BW Optimus Primal (the first one) BW Megatron (the first one) and a couple others that I can't recall. I think Lio was 6.99.

I stopped by JC Penny on the way back from work yesterday to check it out. I saw three KOs: G1 Optimus, Cybertron Thundercracker, and Cybertron Vector Prime. On sale for $8.99.
Didn't pick them up though for a couple of reasons.
1. Very generic looking.
2. Still would have bought them if the shirt was cool, but it wasn't even TF related. Just generic little boy's dinosaur shirt. (I can sometimes fit boy's tees.)
I might look at another store location this weekend and see if they have a different selection.
Canned Pasta, what shirts were they attached to at your Pennys?
In a place such as this, you are the perfect prey for a brest animal!

well with two KO threads (viewtopic.php?f=4&t=57&start=1470) it's got to be time we had a proper sub-forum for KO's!

Re: New Transformers Knockoff Thread
I posted this early on in this thread but it bears repeating;as far as the TM knock-offs go, the red Megatron and grn Megatron are your best bets.

Here you go, K.O. Powermaster Getaway in yellow, with powermaster and a new gun. At first glance I thought it was an energon hotshot.
http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Transformers-Bu ... dZViewItem
Edit:
Actually, the seller has FAB Starscream, a newer version of the KO Prime, and the previously seen Wing Saber and BB KO's.

These FAB KO's looks awful, to be honest. AW-FUL.
