New Transformers Knockoff Thread

Do you love your new Hercules set? Can't get enough of FansProject's items? Upset that you bought a knock off when you thought you were getting an original? Use this forum to tell everyone your thoughts about unlicensed and knock off TF products.

I found some interesting knockoff combiners.

It has the Dollar Store Optimus Prime Knockoff, with red Protectabots and some bits of Sixtrain pants thrown in:

Here he is in white, as a police team:

Here he is in yellow with some Constructicons:

Here he is in green with the Combaticons:

Also, there seems to be a knockoff Sixshot in different colors:

I got my Chinese Knockoff Voyager Starscream. It's pretty good, but they removed a few points of articulation and the blades just pull out instead of using a cyber-key. It also is missing some of the paint applications and the cockpit window is solid instead of being transparent.

Then are you sure it's a Voyager knockoff, and not a Voyager sized KO of the Legends toy?

Yes, it is the Voyager mold. It had the tail fins that fold down, unlike the Legends mold, it had more articulation in the legs than the Legends mold, it has swords instead of a sword and gun, it has his missile launcher, it has wing flaps, landing gear, the feet fold like the voyager toy not the Legends. The only things they simplified are the guns on the belly don't move, the cyber key and possibly one joint in the arms.

he has no simplified joints, voyager screamer was like that to start with, all they removed was the key mechanism (belly cannons didnt move) :)

Brief - My latest Knockoff - He's an enlarged version of the Vector Prime Legends figure. He stands about the size of a tall scout, and I got him in a package which was clearly a knockoff of the Cybertron Deluxe toy box. My nickname for him - Vector Minor.

Colors - White, with red and black plastic. Some black, red gold and blue paint.

The disadvantages from the Voyager class figure - the wings don't fold, no sound, no missile, no sword, no Mini-Con, articulation is identical to that of the Legends Vector Prime.

Improvements over the Legends figure- They made the wings detachable and added a peg to them, and you can use them as rifles! Also, his vehicle mode actually covers his face up, unlike the Legends toy.

This figure ends up falling between the Voyager and Legends versions of the toy, but does fall much closer to the Legends.

Here is a very cool Diecast KO Transformers figure. It's a red fire truck with study joints. It's from Asia. I'm impressed with the good quality!

Is it an actual knockoff, or just a generic original mold?

Actually those are original molds I've seen them before. there are bikes, cars, trucks they are mostly die cast, and all transform similarly.

Ok, this one is just funny:

For someone who regularly sells TF's, this is a dumb mistake to make with a Wheeljack KO. This seller also has a KO Grimlock up for $59.99.

This is something hasbro should've done. A combiner out of movie characters. Something like this ko set.
