The worst offical transformers ever made

Today I think we finally have a winner, actually 2 winners. I don't think anything else can beat them for this honor. Whoever in Hasbro designed this should be executed on-the-spot.

Let me first borrow one picture from another thread:


With some comments:
Matrix_Holder: I didnt know TRU sold cheap Knockoffs.

FEZaid: I honestly thought they were pinatas at first glance. They are just hunks of plastic, I didn`t see any articulation either, barley gave them any attention since being so fugly




And if u think the front is very bad, wait until u see the back. I was in TRU today, picked the box up and took a closer look. When I put it back, I found this is the back of the box...shameless.....

"How thoughtful, let's give OP red string, and Bumbleebee the yellow string, then just tape it. The kids will love these and their parents for sure will happily pay $60 to get both of them!"

Anyone want to place bets on how soon these will end up at Dollarama for $3?

Do they actually do anything or are they just stylish looking paperweights.

Hasbro making lower quality figures the past year or two, like xueyue2, this one takes the cake

Actually I don't think they weight much, when I picked them up today, I didn't feel anything special.

Re: The worst offical transformers ever made

I'll give the Optimus one a little credit because it's got more and better paint apps than Bumblebee. But Bumblebee is just terrible. Boring sculpt. AND, look at the box art! It's the black "Stealth" Bumblebee from Beast Hunters. They could have just given him the normal BB colors box art, but it they weren't going to color him black and yellow, what's the point? And they couldn't even both to produce a back of the box. Pathetic.

But what are they? Giant Action Masters? The arms certainly look like they can move up and down.

I have Armada Sideswipe, the car mode is actually decent, and I'm sure it's not at $30 price tag.

Re: The worst offical transformers ever made

Ya, does it do anything? Filled with candy? That would sorta make sense.

So, TFs were getting too complicated and expensive so they simplified it and made them smaller. Then, ppl complained they were too small and hollow. So is this the solution? They certainly look bigger and not hollow. Everyone is happy right?

Srsly though. Why? And 30 bucks too?!?!

They look like the cheapass knockoffs I used to find at the souvenir stands by the beach in Mexico
