what a piece of junk.

I bought one of those Devastator knockoffs from Walgreens today. It's a bootleg of the Transformers G1 toy, and wow, is it a piece of shit.

I bought one of these a couple years ago. I was so disgusted with it I threw it against a wall before throwing it away. I had heard the quality on these KOs was slightly improved of late, so I picked one up. While much better than my previous set, it's still a long way off. Scrapper, the bot that makes the right leg, refused to stay on the combined form, and Bonecrusher, the left arm, had a leg fall off since the plastic was so cheap.

But there are some good points. It's a great way to get some accessories, even though a few guns are missing. And the bots in their single form are good for filling a display, even though their faces aren't painted.

It was only $6, so buyer beware. I clearly had too high of expectations for this set, and for once, people on the interwebs complaining about how shitty it was were completely correct.

I threw this set away too, except for the little guns and the Scrapper figure.

No more KOs for me.
