That's actually probably the least knockoff-y aspect, not few official Transformers do that sort of thing these days to replicate old designs. Although this particular one looks like it just hides in the trailer altogether and shares no parts at all with the vehicle mode.

It gets even better once you figure out what it's actually a knockoff of.

Here's your source, only with a new head, chest and vehicle front.

So yeah, it's a knockoff based on the original inspiration of a homage toy based on another popular cartoon character. I can't readily identify the source of this one's head though.

Did it involve ghost peppers, by any chance?

Or perhaps, one of these peppers?



It's too bad that stash doesn't include Dr Foots which is one of the best Dr Pepper clones there is(as it's produced by the company that used to bottle Dr Pepper in The Netherlands, once they lost the right they instantly made their own knockoff) It still uses sugar as a sweetener too.

The manufacturer's page about it is quite entertaining too.

So I hear the Avengers got a new member... (spotted in a Euroland shop here that also had repaints of the Captain Scarlet Angel Interceptors labelled as Star Wars product)



Apologies for the quality, I had to take a quick snap due to staff being around.

:newlol: Team Freemen World Police, it's amazing.*


*Note: I squinted really hard and it looks as it says "World Police". But I'm still not sure.

Yep, it's World Police, as the logo is a knockoff of that of Team America: World Police. I didn't even notice this myself until I looked again.

Yet another Star Wars crossover found at a cheap store:



At least they kept the Angel Interceptor name.

loving love tourist garbage

As someone who lives in Bulgaria I gotta get me one of those.

Also found this at a toy store today. While it's not a knockoff there is some interesting design choices going on...

Once again not really a knockoff but just a somewhat weird toy kitchen: The Talented Chef Spraying Kitchen.

Why fly in an Airbus when you can fly in a Planebus? Gotta love that scale too.

Same chain of stores that I found Killdozer at btw.
