Both Tai Fong AM Radios (Blaster KO-ish)

Bootleg lookalikes borrowing elements from various Transformers, most obviously Blaster and Megatron's head and swords. Interestingly, the one on the right was itself KO'd in Argentina, with Commando Toys acquiring the license from Antex to release it as an official licensed, branded Transformer. Whether Antex had the legal right to do that without oversight from Hasbro is anyone's guess.

Missing Link Delta Magnus

One thing we don't talk about with the eHobby era is how generic the packaging was. Missing Link does not have that problem.

Collecting toys doesn't have to be about the biggest, the rarest, the most expensive toys. It can be as simple as finally upgrading a childhood toy that's aged out after nearly forty years

Custom Turbomaster Hyperdrive (Star Convoy mold), which will be auctioned at TFNation for charity

More details on the TFNation social media pages, custom work by Shins of the Wreckers for Toy-Fu, who raise money for Mary's Meals. Not BST, merely showing off a brilliant custom, so don't ask questions below as I can't help you.

Even though they weren't used for the Transformers releases until WFC Siege in 2019, the Power Dasher's names of Aragon, Cromar, and Zetar came straight from the Diakron, Gig Trasformer, and Joustra releases

This photo is how I realised mine isn't actually complete, there's a longer tank turret part I don't own.

Reissues please.

Unreleased pre-TF mold. Gig Trasformer Crono Car Lamborghini. Not-Sideswipe

I don't understand why they didn't release these as Transformers, to be honest. I know we got Autoceptor and Deceptor, and eventually Scorpia and the classic robot watch in G2, but they could have done all three seekers, Sideswipe, Bee, Fairladies, Blaster, and Megatron just with the molds Takara had.
