"Micro Valdigus" aka mini-KO-Bruticus photos (picture heavy)

Post by Osku »

I had sort of promised myself not to buy any more knock offs, but when I saw these micro (small ones) versions of Guard City and Valdigus knock offs I couldn't resist. 5 euros per piece. There was also Menasor with two technobot limbs and micromaster combiner knock off, but decided not to buy.

Photo-shoot of Valdigus.

In package
Image

Combined mode
-18-19 cm tall in combined mode.
-Plastic quality is good for a knock-off.

Image

Comparison with the normal Valdigus knock-off.
-Some stickers included in the set, that didn't come with the original Car Robots Valdigus, or the normal sized knock-off.
Image

Comparison with Menasor (my Ruination is incomplete, otherwise I'd have used that)
Image

Robot modes
-Missing all weapons for th shuttle, and side guns for helicopter.
Image

Comparison with RiD Ro-Tor and ?

Vehicle modes and accessories (some weapons attached to vehicles).

Comparison of the size of big bots.

Another comparison picture.

Comparison with a micromaster.
Image

Comparison with a "G1" minibot.

In short. Well worth the money. I might sell my normal sized knock-off and keep this. Too bad I don't have micromaster combiners or Takara's Robotmasters based on "G1" characters to compare with. At least not yet. :)

Yeah, I've seen those and they do look pretty cool. Did you pick 'em up locally or was there a load of postage on top of that?

Review for 'Other Merchandise'?

Locally, which is quite surprising as it's pretty rare to see knock-offs around here.

Could do a short review, but only after I've had time to open and check the Guard City/Defensor one. :)

Those look pretty cool. Not trying to hi-jack your thread here or anything but I didn't want to start a new one especially if this had already been posted and I missed it.

In the US Big Lots stores there are currently devastator and Superion Knockoffs. The coloring isn't like the originals (Superion has US airforce stickers and Devastator is a G2ish yellow) and they don't have decipticon and autobot logos, but they are 5 bucks a set.
How can I sign my name on the screen? Do I use paint or something?

Guess the maker of the "Kob-Bots" sets decided to downsize them all now...
