I went into a local store and found a trashed little TF toy for a quarter. As i looked it's remains over a bitcloser I was suprised to see a 2up Top Spin with a grimlock styled face! Here's a pic. I'm at a loss as to what the heck it is called or where it is from. Hope you guys can help me.

 

wow that KO loots like it was vacume formed then glued together i know its not but still its quite ass

Most likely one of the countless nameless KOs out there.

 

I don't know what you plan on doing with it but IMO, that quarter would've been more wisely spent on a gumball.

LOL, for me I love KO's, they are cheap cannon fodder for a collection and even better for backdrops if still in package. For me, when i find a new off the wall thing, i could care less about value, but more about how strange the piece is. If ya knew me you'd understand, and I'm suyre there are a few out there who do.

 

As for the quality of this toy...yeah...it's not there. The pieces that broke off look like they went at the hands of a 1 year old, it's by far the cheapest toy I have seen in ages.

Here it is

bah...missed it toy archive, at least I now know what it is. :clap

I had a few of those when I was a kid as well...they were quite common at Dollar stores and the more run down retail stores. Very big and chunky, the mechanical workings (the wheels/gears, etc) worked hit or miss, sometimes stickers would be off center, or in a completely different location from toy to toy.

 

25 cents? I'd have to agree, I'd have gone for a gumball :tftongue

But I defintaely understand where you're coming from. I used to keep all my broken up figs, KO's and genuines, for dioramas and home made playsets.

I've got a few of those left over from when I was a kid. They used to be quite common.

I found similar style robots a while back.

Here's the thread.
