Ahh, I see, thanks.
THE KNOCK OFF TRANSFORMERS THREAD
- Thread starter PrimalxConvoy
- Start date
Possibly re-engineered MP10?
Finds at dd's Discounts (IIRC a chain owned by the same company as Ross, but aiming slightly cheaper).
Oversized Constructicons for $10 each, they only had these two. The box back showed combiner mode instructions, though.
$20 for a Bumblebee already falling apart in the box, Optimus, and two masks.
And the only one I picked up, although I'm reluctant to open it up to see how low the plastic quality is, a $20 "Booticus" oversized set. Hot Spot in Onslaught drag, sort-of Swindle and Brawl, and then Highbrow and Starscream as arms?

I'm still disappointed that the 12 cent Bruticus wasn't real.
This is 12 cent Bruticus, just, ya know, inflation.
That Booticus looks a lot like the KOs that have been making the rounds at Five Below. If it is, don't expect much.
Which versions of the Constructions are those?
Well, the FiveBelow ones don't actually seem to combine. And no, these are different designs from those.

FD01 OSKO Newage Jazz
OSKO Shiny-tron.
Don't worry - just give it a little bit and it'll all flake off.
If I get it, I might give it a wash of thinned bolt-gun metal for some minor weathering/panel lining.
It might also look nice with clear, coloured paints (to make metallic (INSERT COLOUR HERE) versions of Megatron.
My store sells some aerosol paints designed to go over chrome and give it an anodized look; those might be useful for this...
The fingerprints are gonna be insane.
'MeMegatron"?
Even though it's a KO, I wouldn't feel confident transforming that thing.
Possibly KO SS86 Seekers?
I had the sudden amusing but horrifying thought of blindpacked Seekers.
