    Hehe, Positivus...

    I picked those up a while back at Big Lots. I forget the names of the characters those used, but they did use the pictures of the original toys, just like yours there. Unfortunately, they are extremely bad, even by KO standards. First time I felt like I might as well throw the toy away... They were only a couple of bucks, and seemed neat, until I got them home. :banghead: 

    Maybe yours are better, though. :thumbs2:

    The best part about that is the story recap on the back of the packaging.

    "Let's take everything about the original, and change parts of all the names ever-so-slightly so everybody knows exactly what they're referring to!"

    Transformers = Transmogrifiers (whatever)
    AllSpark = BigSpark
    Optimus Prime = Positivus Prime
    Decepticons = Deceivocons
    Even the Autobot logo just has the top stretched!

    Okay.....

    How much did it cost? I want to say they were about $2 - $2.50 at Big Lots the one time I was able to find them.

    ROFL, Ubertron!
    But if that was cheap, I've been thinking of getting a Cybertron Optimus, and I'm not very picky.
