FAB/Basic Frenzy Question

I once saw a picture of FAB/Basic Frenzy with a different disc shooting out of his chest, a disc that transformed into Ravage (and another that transformed into Laserbeak, I believe).

Is there any possible way I can get my hands on one of those discs?

Well the FAB figure is in general release. The Ravage and Laserbeak Discs are new to me though, and I doubt that they are official Hasbro releases too.
But you can never be too certain in this "merchandise everything" world.

Very under-rated figure, the transformation is fun too. Gonna love watching my friends struggle to transform him :P

Best thing is that you never have to worry about accidental firing of his disk.

Those are non-transformer related transforming CD's. Agh, who made them, Bandai maybe?

Anyway, it's been a while since they popped up(long before the last site wipe), but these things were out quite a while ago, long before the movie was on anyone's mind. Think the other one was a gorrilla, might have been one more. I'm gonna think abou this a minute.

so is there a possibility that these are knock offs?

I'm pretty sure the ones I'm thinking of weren't Knock offs, though the ones picured might actually be.

I can't think of what they are called.

regardless KOs or not, id love to know who they are cause those are pretty sweet. and if they were KOs, thats some pretty good original KOs.... KOs are usually based off an offical figure, so im guessing there is a liscensed fiure behind this. and if they are KOs, you can always repaint. but, if anyone does have, know, or sells these things, speak up!

The discs were from one of the Kamen Rider series'. I know there was also a maned lion, and a cobra, as well as an ape, a wolf, and the two shown above.

I've been saying F.A.B. Frenzy is a great figure, all along.

That's one thing I haven't seen restock more than once during this shortage...F.A.B.s

for the past few days ive been seeing fab frenzy at just about every target ive visited.... he's becoming a pegwarmer along with fab megs.... what a waste. he's seriously an underrated figure. only if people knew....

Just like any of the Deluxe class figures, the FAB's are selling as quick as they hit the shelves here.

Once we get the Payload/Dropkick/Longarm wave of figures or a general restock then I'm sure it won't be as bad.

Thanks for the info. I personally would not have guessed that the discs came from a Kamen Rider series!

Between $20-40.00 depending on which Animal Disc you want.
