Re: knock offs?
Okay, I was at TFCon this weekend, and my boyfriend bought me a cassette-two pack, "Frenzy" and "Laserbeak", which were cast in clear plastic.
They had the proper stickers and rubsigns, so are these knockoffs or not? I'm not sure

Re: knock offs?
The clear plastic tapes are probly knockoffs.
I have a red Browning KO, looks pretty nice, but the orange plastic guns it comes with looks silly on him.
I got a vintage KO Bonecrusher at TFCon. The awesome thing is that it works with genuine constructicon parts and limbs. 3 more limbs till my rainbow devastator is complete!

They are KOs... but top of the line KOs if there is such a thing

Okay then. They may be knockoffs, but they are still members of Soundwave's Cassette Army. I'm happy.
Thanks for clearing that up.

Yaaay Knock-offs! I love threads like this!
Incidentally, last summer, I saw that same giant Bendy Prime KO for sale in Toronto's Chinatown for about $12 or so. I was spending a lot of money on other stuff, so I passed on it, but I really wished I'd bought it now.
How is it, quality-wise? I mean, obviously it's a KO, but how does it stand up in that context?

Re: knock offs?
This will definitely sound childish, but the only reason I'd buy knockoffs is to use them for gun fodder in a game. Yeah, I actually play with my TF's

They're knockoffs, but they're of surprisingly good quality. They're definitely a good addition to your collection if you were looking for cassettes.

Re: knock offs?
Those in the know about Brave probably know about good ol' Build Kitty. He's one of the most unique knockoffs I've got.
I also have a BW Tripredacus knockoff, all correct colours, but made out of plastic that feels like shampoo bottle material. From a blue-carded line called SAVAGERY BRAVE.

The more cassettes my Soundwave has to take over the Decepticons with, the better
I was thinking of naming and repainting my knockoff cassettes. "Static" for the Rumble/Frenzy mold, I'm not sure what colours to use yet. Anyone have any ideas for names/colour schemes for the Laserbeak/Buzzsaw mold?

Re: knock offs?
I really like the clear. Call him "white noise".
