Hi,everyone,
Here is some photos about the KO ALT WHEELJACK and GRIMLOCK.
It's really good quality.

And this is photos about KO GrimLock

Where did you get the KO of ALT Whheljack and Grimlock at?

They are sold in China now. Maybe you can get one from ebay later.

How much did you pay for the KO's and "Welcome to Seibertron.com"...


I paid for $10 for this.

I think it might be based on the Macross VF-17S, but I'm not sure. I haven't seen one of those in a while.

EDIT: Found a link to it on Macrossworld.com. It might be related, but I don't think it's a direct KO.

I just won this auction from the philipines. It's knockoffs of Robot Masters Thundercracker and Skywarp. I think I'll be using Thundercracker as a stand in for the OUTRAGEOUSLY overpriced classics Thundercracker.

Plus we got some colorful insecticons.

I love this oversized Hot Rod toy. It seems to come with his original AND Targetmaster parts.

Don't know if some one has already found this, but Happywell is starting to sell a knock off G1 Jetfire in some kind of silver/greyish metallic looking paint. Just dropping some information off.

Can anyone tell me if the knockoff known as Destroy Monarch is close enough to the real G1 Megatron for me to use it's parts in restoring a broken real one I have?

First of, thanks Scaleface, that was the Jetfire KO I saw. I didn't know it had been around, was the first time I saw it.

As for Destroy Monarch, I have that one and it's pretty decent. I have never seen or held a real G1 Megatron, so besides from my life not being complete, I can't comment on the suitability of parts for repairs. My guess would be that yes, they would work fine, becuase the KO is pretty decently put together. Like if you needed arms or whatnot.

My G1 Megatronm which I got in a lot of old bots, it missing one arm and most of the accessories. I wanted to try to repair him and maybe put some reprolabels on it.

The KO Alternators look too legit to be KO's. I think that's just the Chinese version of the way it's boxed. Given all the characters and such.

Is the parts of the legs and arms of Megatron KO diecast metal? I think the KO verison of Megatron is little taller then the original Megatron... If the KO is made of die cast metal then I don't think their would be any problems swapping parts to fix your original Megatron...

I just opened a KO Devestator, Superion & Bruticus that I got... They are **** horrid.

I can't put them on my shelf next to all the real stuff, not even the ghey G2 stuff, so I'll trade them to a guy at work for a bottle of poweraid - if I can.

ADDED: LOL Swearfilter... **** :D

My pal Toni jumped at the chance to buy those KO's for a bottle of Poweraid - sucker, he got jacked on that deal :D .

I asked him why he'd want to put that crap on display with his collection and he replied that they will spend their days getting beaten up by his giant Unicron - fair enough.

My Dollar General store has these, but they're legit... Universe packaging, I think.
