Picked these up at the Dollar Tree here in town... has an almost spot on Prime head on both, a very very close replica of his gun, and an 'energy axe'. They stand 6" tall. Both have a light up feature... press a button on the grill and a small red bulb lights up. Pretty generic... but interesting.

The arms n head go nowhere?
Wow, that really is very naff.
And you have to wonder why they modelled the arms on Grapple n Hoist's arms...

All the pieces except for the legs pop off.
It does have aspects of different Transformers. For a buck, it has some great pieces for kitbashing.

I have a question:
What kind of Peg do the gun and Ax have? Can they fit say in Armada Bendy Prime's hand? or Maybe R.I.D. Prime?

Oh, no. IT BURNS!
We need a bonfire at Botcon and everyone has to throw a knock off or Wheelie into it for admittance.

Basic round pegs... it does fit Armada Bendy Primes hands and any other figure with the same size peg hole. The gun is very nicely detailed... attached a pic...

That does not even deserve to be called a knockoff.

I actually saw someone selling those on ebay for 9.99 awhile back. I had already seen them at the dollar store and couldn't help feel sorry for the sucker who would buy one off ebay.

Dude, you have to see if you can get a picture of the "light-up" feature. That's the best part!

With quality approximately equal to a large portion of Hasbro's recent Deluxe offerings at 1/10 the price, these wouldn't make particularly bad army-building figures.

I'll have to check out Dollar Tree out here again this week, I still can't find those. I want 'em too, interesting KO's and nice repaint fodder.

I got the orange-on-black version fairly recently, and I got a pretty good idea how to make him fit in with my collection. I went and posed him with C-Unicron and C-Sideways, and the end result was pretty nifty.
So now we have Bludgeon, Sideways, and Optimal Convoy - the three Blendtrons and Emissaries of Unicron.
not bad for a buck......
