I don’t know if this is the right place to submit this to, but I want to catalog this bootleg item before I sell it. I honestly had too much trouble trying to navigate this site, which is why I don’t really use it. (if anyone who can make changes wants to chat, I’m open to it)
I currently have no plans to 3D model this, but I am open to modeling some, or all of the parts if there is enough interest, or if someone is willing to pay for the time and effort

Looks like AOE Grimlock. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s part of the Transformers: Fighting Youth Novel Metamorphosis bootleg line which inexplicably uses CCBS skeletons with Transformer-shaped armour
There’s Optimus Prime and Megatron versions too, I saw them for sale when I was in Great Yarmouth once

So Hasbro made a CCBS bootleg?? That is something I legitimately never heard of until now.

That’s very cool! I love the design of this thing, it looks really nice. And it’s great that we know what it is, I might want to look for one of these.

Not Hasbro, just a bootleg brand legitimately insane enough to actually call their product Transformers instead of “Deformation Robot” or something

As both a Transformers and constraction fan I have to say this is one of the more surreal things I’ve ever seen. Are those Glatorian-style hands or Hero Factory ones? And if they’re Glatorian ones…why?

It was listed on my store (idk if I am allowed to link it), but has already sold, and I have no clue if I will get more of these when I get more knockoff parts/sets from a friend overseas
@biomechanical_baboon Glatorian Hands, lol

Weird. Hero Factory hands were right there and presumably more available, so why they would pick that hand mold is beyond me.

Probably because they look more robotic, whereas the Hero Factory versions look more organic. If only they could’ve changed the socket design… funnily enough, the models for the Heroes in the videos actually use Glatorian hands in all videos, even Invasion From Below.

Does this thing actually transform, or at least have an alternate build?

No clue. I don’t care about transformers, and this is incomplete, but I wouldn’t expect it to have transforming functions
