    Huh. I thought it would be bigger. Weird but still neat.

    Omg, is that a custom Arcee made from Chromia and a dye bath? That's hilarious! I was just thinking about that yesterday!

    Yeah, I know that, I was referring to this message:
    The Knock off transformers thread
    It's just suspicious that "Nemesis Prime" got released while there's no trace of this one. I think it's possible that it's just regular os ko Siege Hound and the colours are weird because pic was shot using potato (wrong colour balance happens, for example it's quite common in EmGo's reviews - purple things often are blue in his videos).

    Is there a thread for non-transformer transforming robots? Like tobot and battle strike team? Or is it pretty much this thread?

    All The Other Transforming Robots

    There’s this general transforming robots thread, although many of the different lines have their own dedicated threads.

    How about doing a google search? As far as I know, Tobots isn't a Knock off.

    Tobots

    When you know the name of the line in question, it begs to question the reasons for questioning... that being said, tobots are hella expensive, and yet sirtoys has had a few including the knockoff versions - there are KO's of tobots, so it's not really a stretch to inquire here if they are so inclined?

    Might get a better sway of convos here too... its more of a ass-backwards backwoods-family type group, but we're all KO fam here.

    I'm interested to see what you think, I'm passing on SS86 Grimlock too for a variety of reasons (mainly he's too big to easily fit into my limited display space and I don't like the overly cartoony dino mode) and I was planning to get the FOC figure in Premium deco, but I like the look of D01 too. More G1-y but the dino mode manages to look more threatening than the SS86 one IMO.

    Hey thanks, that's exactly what I wanted, a thread that might turn me onto new robots. I'm not really into reproductions.

    Right, I was asking because some people got testy about people posting non-KO's, like Beastbox. Having done the first English YouTube reviews for the newest Tobot wave and personally walked Dongdaemun, I don't think I'll need to Google tobot. Also, by most definitions of KO, this tobot helicopter is a Cybertron Evac KO.

    Dong in Korean and Chinese means East so it's a common word, especially for names of places.

    It is also the name of Vietnam's currency.

    No offence, but once you've been around Asia for a while, jokes like that get old really fast.
