I know Big Lots have some KO figures. The insect ones are different from the origional ones, but they are transforming bugs.

You could always go on Ebay and get him an origional one cheap.

Importing KOs end up being as expensive as the Reissue Insecticons. Cheapest thing I saw were damaged G1 ones at Toy Fairs.. I got the 3 Insecticons, with chipped horns, etc, for $15.

Arucard obviously doesn't have a girlfriend. :P No offense, Arucard.

How much do you like this girl? How old is the cousin? Buying a gift like that for her little cousin could earn you some major points with your girlfriend. If you can't afford the new set, get him something similar.

I could offer KOTOYS.COM but I think to reissues are cheaper.

Get a beat up G1 set from ebay.

I just picked up a set for around $15 for kitbashing. (didn't wanna pay $35 for what amounts to 3 scouts for bashing)

No weapons and a little chrome wear, but perfect for a kid to play with.

As SJ21 mentioned, you can buy KO insect Transformers 9usually different molds from the G1 insecticons) at stores like Big Lots.

Family Dollar sometimes carries them, theirs I think were $10 for a few of them.
