The two yellow missiles, I believe, belong to Cybertron Thunderblast.

Yea. I looked up the toy to see where the other missile comes in, but the flame is the missile. The other one snapped in, which threw me off. Makes sense now :lol:

Thank you very much for the clarification on who they actually belong to!

I know that one. It's a World Smallest Transformers. I think it may be the clear version. A something-or-other exclusive.

Found it:

TF Wiki wrote:Smallest Transforming Transformers

Hot Rodimus (2004/2006)
Accessories: 2 Photon Lasers
Initially intended for release in the cancelled third wave of Takara's Smallest Transforming Transformers line of diminutive Transformers figures, Hot Rod eventually saw the light of day as the 1-in-24 shortpacked "chase" figure in wave "2.5" of the series, which was already of comparatively limited availability. He came with tiny versions of his original Photon Lasers (which were attached to a plastic sprue and had to be removed by the buyer), and was blindpacked like all Smallest Transforming figures.
Hot Rod was later made available again as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in 2006, in a unique monochrome red box, available only with purchase of Hybrid Style Optimus Prime.

Found it on Mandrake?

A KO of the Gobot Waterwalk. I think I've seen it before, but I have to dig through my sources to be sure.

The only TF in the Haul, G2 Skyscrocher Terradive

A KO of G1 Scavenger most likely, the G2 or the EU versions don't have those stickers.

That has me scratching my head...Boy am I dumb! That's Super Gobot Defendor missing his turret

That cute little guy is called Bandit, part of the Convertors Spies range.

That would be Super Gobot Destroyer

Nice finds, especially the Waterwalk KO and Bandit.

You telling me the machine robo toys were sold in north america? I never knew that. Then again, makes sense since so was Diaclone.

Thanks by the way!

No, it's a KO. It does come close to the colors of the Machine Robo original, but the KO added the red and had different stickers. Machine Robo were sold "as is" in Europe and Australia, leading to some awkward integration with Gobots. :lol:

By "precursor", he just meant that GoBots were made from Machine Robo toys, not that Machine Robo toys came out in NA before GoBots did.

Also, see my own post about that figure.

Ah nuts! I guess this was a poor kid growing up (as I was). His parents couldnt even afford to buy all real gobots, they had to get KOs.

I really love having found that Terradive though!

To be a little fair, it is said that "Skeez" was so common a bootleg of Water Walk that it was sold right alongside the official product, which sounds to me like even the packaging may have been a knockoff of the real thing, fooling everything into thinking they were buying an authentic GoBot instead of a fake one.

News Credits: 4490 · by **william-james88** » Tue Sep 18, 2018 10:13 pm

Looked it up and the only similar aspect is where the toy is positioned in relation to th card, but the colours and name are very different. Even the artwork with one showing the robot mode while the other showing the alt mode.

This was the packaging:

They didn't look authentic, but they were so common, especially at drug stores and discount stores, people didn't really care that they weren't official. I have a red KO Night Ranger and I think Dart that came in this style package, they came with sticker sheets which was interesting.

Yeah, I did not mean Machine Robo were sold here.

Though, after a bit more research on him, he´s quite a common thing, Amd also apparently a Pepsi promo item.

I have a piece that I think broke off a Battle Ops Bumblebee figure. However, I can't figure out where the piece came from on the figure. It is possible it's not from a Battle Ops Bumblebee, but it looks like the same color plastic. Can anyone pinpoint where this piece is from on Battle Ops Bumblebee? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Mostly power rangers from different shows and lines, but there is a Transformers Energon Omega Supreme there.

And a 2007 Movie Scorponok from Voyager Blackout.
