    i dont know if anyone heard of this knock offs but i picked one of em up today at my local Sheetz ( a gas station franchise )..Its name is Megacar... a spitting image of Cybertron Megatron. There were others too. For example, a knockoff of Cybertron jetfire and HotShot..

    Their homeworld's called Substandrotron.. The good guys are "Virtuobots". The bad guys are " Deceivocons ".. the leaders are " Ubertron " ( bad ) and Postivus Prime (good )... they came to Earth for the "Big Spark ".. ( allspark )

    No orginality!!!

    anyways, they suck!

    Those names are almost a parody, especially the planet. It's like they're acknowledging their sub standard copies.

    Looks more like an upscaled Legends figure than a downscaled Leader figure.

    I actually really want those; the toys look like crap, but the fiction is what really sells it. Home planet of Substandardtron? (I know, not the actual spelling, but still) thats just full of win right there.

    The toys may not be good, but that has to be the best KO line ever.

    And from the sounds of it it is better than most fanfiction out there.

    These guys are enlarged Legends. Biglots had them last year in different packaging and for a quarter of the price.

    I only saw the oversized LoC's at Big Lots once but was thinking it might be nice to get some more. How much were they? I think there's a Sheetz nearby I could check.
