Are "Roadbots" knockoff Alternators?

Not at all, entirely original molds with sounds and lights (and lots of detachable parts). Different scales too (1/18, 1/12 and 1/32). Alternators are 1/24 I think.

Roadboats, are not Knockoff Alternators per se. They are just vehicles that transform into robots. but don't look anything like any Alternator. I don't think they have the same car moulds as the Alts. Well i think the only mould they share is the Ford GT, but the transformations seem to be very different.

They are produced by Happywell, and some are really nice.
Like the Corvette, and the Hummer (Movie Ratchet anyone).
There's a big SUV that's like the size of Cybertron Primus. they have swords and other weapons the Alts don't have.

Happywell's website with many offerings:

They aint brilliant, cheaper (obviously so), but not terrible.

Yep. Looks like Decepticharge, but just like megatroptimus already said, Alternators are 1/24. This auction is for 1/18. Could be a KO but it's a smaller scale than the Alt version.
