Reminds me of the labeling you'll find on knockoff video game carts. There's stuff like Nintondo and Nintemdo.

I flew a minor Indonesian airline one time, the in-flight gifts booklet had Caslo watches and a Super Mary handheld video game.

I remember reading a book about building hot rods when I was a kid, that cautioned against cheap knockoff parts with deceptive labelling, like "Food" or "Focomo" or, hilariously, "Frod". Never knew stuff like that actually existed.

That's really bizarre because you can normally just buy 3rd party replacement parts for many cars. I guess these are just the really sketchy ones.

A lot of the knockoff Transformers don't even bother outside of changing things like TAKARA TOMY to TAKASA TONY. Everything else is exactly the same.

Sometimes bigger. With improved build quality. And modifications for better transformation. And better everything overall from the original, really. Oh, and also still cheaper than the original.

Wei Jiang is my favorite knockoff company, they make tons of oversized Transformers that improve upon the base product. Kinda antithetical to the concept of a bootleg as we usually know them, but man, their stuff is great. I have about a dozen things from them and they're all fantastic.

The Chinese government is actually banning Engrish but so far I only heard it's on signboards and such.

treiz01: Jan 2, 2008; There is little that makes me happier than taking drugs. Perhaps administering them, designing and carrying out experiments that bend the plane of what we consider reality.

(Edit: this one actually is a pretty good knockoff, I'd forgotten how craptastic most of these actually are so in comparison this is fine)

My nephew is obsessed with Peppa Pig so my sister wanted to get him a playset for his birthday. Luckily, she was able to find a cheap one on eBay!

Can a book be a bootleg? Like if somebody publishes and prints their fanfic without permission from original property owners? Because I've read this bizarre book as a kid, that was basically Demolition Man with Stallone replaced with ninja turtles, and I doubt it was officially licensed.

Why not? Fifty Shades of Grey started off as terrible Twilight FanFic.

Not the only one either. The Netflix series Shadowhunters is adapted from Mortal Instruments, a book series that started out as an infamous Harry Potter fanfic.
