From top to bottom:

Animated Activators Ratchet
Animated Activators Bumblebee
Animated Activators Optimus Prime
Animated Activators Lockdown
Animated Activators Bumblebee (again)
Animated Activators Starscream

The originals had spring-loaded transformations at the touch of a button.

The coloring matches Activators Thundercracker, actually.

That card also pictures ROTF Scouts Dead End, Knock Out and Dirt Boss.

OMG, you guys have poaundland, and we have dollar tree and the dollar store, but the pound is worth more than the dollar. Interesting. On topic, those are weird, really weird, and notice how they all have the same suffix......interesting as well.

Ok, then let's be precise and say that the white Bumblebee is actually Patrol Bumblebee

[vectorA3]

Do those go in Soundwave or Blaster??

[Skyfire77]

Animals that turn into the Kanji for what they are? Brilliant! See, something like that'd never work in English.

Found this one at Debbie's Dollar in Washington Township, MI.



As you can see he is between Scout and Deluxe size, and fits in well with Legends of Cybertron toys. His right arm has 4 points of articulation, but the left has one. Head moves legs swivle on the knees. All the guns are removable, as well as the arms can be removed and swapped if you like.

Paper Lanterns

[kirbenvost]

Wow, that has to be some of the most unique TF merch ever!

Found this one at Debbie's Dollar in Washington Township MI, part of the same assortment as the KO Superion Maximus and KO Energon Omega Supreme. This one is based on the Robot Masters Star Saber toy.



This one has more articulation than the others, but the legs and knees oddly joint out instead of forward and back. Shoulder have a ball joint, and a joint in the elbows. Comes with sword and a rifle.



Scale is a bit larger than a normal Action Master, which works since his Super mode should be larger.



One odd leftover from the original mold is that he has a second smaller head inder his first.

Finally saw the KO yellow Constructicons/devastator and Protectobots and aerialbots(?) and wannabe Superion at Big Lots last week. Pretty tempting for $9 or $11 whatever it was. Weird pack for the planes

I believe that's how the leg joints work on all versions of Star Saber. In the original, it's for his base mode and possibly part of the transformation. The Robot Masters version (which I believe this is a KO of, judging by the gun) emulates the G1, as does the recent Kabaya candy kit.

Man, I wish we had all these cool dollar stores around here. I'd like a KO Star Saber or Superion!

[vectorA3]

no $1 stores in Canada???

and when i was mentioning the Superion --2 or 3 planes in the pack were vastly different than G1 and so was the gestalt. Strange pack

Huh, that is strange.

We do have dollar stores here, but I never see KO Transformers. Just other lame toys. Maybe I just don't go in often enough.

Hadn't seen this one before, spotted by a friend.

[vectorA3]

that's hilarious and cool at the same time
