transformers knock offs

can we have a thread/post thing just for tf knockoffs?it can be used as a way of telling real from fake,or to entertain those of us who do purchase and collect kos or even to help collectors be wary of what theyre actually buying.(please disregard if there is already a ko thread but i havent found it yet) if not yet,ill start it with pics of a ginormous ko armada "bendy" prime my wifey picked up while in vietnam.it stands at almost double the height of the regular bendy armada prime.

Cool Re: knock offs?

I have tons of odd ball bootlegs that I pick up over the years just cause they have so much charm. My latest ones being from Botcon, some TFcon members know what I am talking about.



My 2 oversized bootleg Classics Rodimus's. They are soooo wacky.

Re: knock offs?

I found an incredibly weird knockoff/bootleg at botcon. But you'll have to go to tfcon to see it. Its just too insane to describe.
