May 19 2010Screw Copyrights: More Action Figure Ripoffs

ripoff-1.jpg

From the second installment of cheap action figure ripoffs come GaoRanger DinoThunder: hands down the awesomest thing I've ever heard in my entire life, and I've heard angels doing it. Kidding, it was actually the heavyset couple upstairs and it sounded like they were gonna crash through my ceiling LIKE A CHOIR FROM HEAVEN. I recorded it. It's my ringtone.

Hit the jump for a whole bunch more ripoffs.

Ninth!

thats soo awesome!

nice.

titanic-bots should come with an ice cube tray.

Safari Spider man!

lol

LOL AT NIGHTMARE FEDDY.

Oh my god, I want Safari Spider-Man and Beach Spider-Man so bad!!

Titanic would've been about fifty percent more bad ass if the boat was a giant robot.

love it....Safari and Beach Spider-Man...lmao

Crom

LOL

the spiderman (men) are actually legit reAL TOYS. universal studios weas selling them a few months back

Funny thing is that Gao Ranger and Dino thunder are 2 different series. Gao Ranger is Wild Force here in the states and Dino thunder is AbaRanger in Japan. The Zord above the Gao Ranger picture is from Dino thuder tho.

arent sailor moon dolls made over there anyway? and ROFL at the titanic bot

Titanic Bot seems like the perfect toy for any under-achiever.

Those are great

@12 Your such a nerd. :P

The strangest thing is that Safari and Beach Spider-Man are official, Marvel-licenced products. They are from a toyline called "Spider-Man Adventure Hero" that includet inane action figures like "Ninja Spider-Man", "Firefighter Spider-Man", "Scooter-riding Spider-Man" (!!!), "Baseball Spiderman" or "Soccer Spider-Man" (I´d like to add how much I hate the word "Soccer", its called FOOTBALL!).
But anyway, ripped off toys should be an artform.

lol at #12, you said "zord"

i havent heard that word in ages...

Whhhaaaaatttt?!? They just popped on ken doll beefy arms and called it Beach Spiderman? If I was the kid that got that, I'd feel like mom needs a new job to buy me better toys

Cant't stop laughing at the titanic-bot. best toy ever!

i havent heard that word in ages...

Anyone notice nightmare feddy's box says, "For Ages 4+" ? Some parents. Instead of a babysitter, let's give the kids a horror movie and hope they don't realize there aren't really any invisible snakes on the floor.

The Titanic bot did indeed turn into a robot. I had that exact toy as a kid. Also, when in boat form you could press a button to make it move in water. Such a cool toy!

I don't see what the fuzz is all about , i live in Mexico and these toys are waaay cooler than the originals i was the happiest kid.

That beach spider man..... GOOD TIMES!

Phffft...like the Titanic was a transforming robot but an iceberg that was also a robot (in disguise) defeated the Titanic before it could transform. Everyone knows that.

dammit GW I am sick of that AT$T banner on the top, always scares the hell out of me!

OMFG Beach Spider man ROCKS!

lmao, safari spiderman has a shrunken head... ;w;

There is a toystore at one of the malls I go to that is full of these toys they even have robosapian knockoffs

TitanicBot FTW!

Beach spiderman should be wearing a speedo.

@15 and 17

Yes I know Im a nerd. Proud of it. Also hahahaha...... Zord.
ITS MORPHIN TIME! DRAGONZORD!

OM*G i want one of those amazing beach spiderman and safari spiderman...
I always wanted one of those for my birthday...but never came...Insteed it come A HUGE LOADS OF FAIL...True story

As always GW is ahead of the curve reporting on great toys, check out this from 2007

Anyone else notice the red lipstick on the bat-man "superhero" mask? Disturbing.

Duuude I used to have the titanic one! It was awesome :D

lol...."high performance all new concept! its just Batman and Spider man mixed.

PS. I named my hamster Mega Zord. the name was too awesome for her and she died, so I got a replacement and named her Val Kilmer. She's a badass. justsayin.

Its gonna be a good Christmas this year ^_^

*sigh*
i love life.

Sadly, those last two arent knock offs. We sold those at the toy store I worked at. No lie.

when the hell did oded fehr play indiana jones?!!!
lol

Wow. Suddenly I don't care about the Avengers movie.

Lmao I love knockoffs! Lovely potato is the best thing since Robert Cop.

As for the spider man dolls, I think I'll hold out for the Safari SPADER man!

I agree with 17, that made me laugh once i processed it.

Want to know where to get them? Flea Markets/Swap Meets. And they're crazy cheap. Thought about nabbing one of those GaoRanger DinoThunder boxes a few weeks ago at $2. Y'know, for kids.

Maybe if Titanic was a large robot, it would have really been unsinkable

This is too normal to me, because I live in Latin America, so I can't laugh as I really want.

TITANIC BOT!!!

yeah, titanic bot looks the best out of all i would have to say, which is just bad, the one thing ripped out of real life they turn into a toy and it failed, bet the toy does too.

@46
I don't live in latinamerica,
but my parents are from mexico.
So I know what you mean xD
I think I got a lot of pokemon rip off toys when I was little.
we still have them I think.

Actually Balrag, everyone says the titanic bot toy was really well done... o.0;
in fact i kinda want one now just for the sheer silliness!!! And wtf? Lovely Radio controlled Potato? Why the heck do we need a potato to be radio controlled?!

Best ones are in order

1. Nightmare Feddy
2. Snap Blocks
3. Planet Girl

This made my day, thx geekologie

A lot of these were taken from:

http://www.knockingoff.com

Which has a huge database of funny knock offs. My favourite is Dolce and Banana.

oh man that titanic mecha looks so smexy

Those Bootleg Spider-men bring back memories:

I was wandering through a "Toy Museum" in Seoul, South Korea last year, and came across this guy hanging from the ceiling:

http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=5083868&l=468ae03634&id=501049321

Along with a few other very boot-leggy figures. It was an odd sight, particularly the Spider-man wearing a cape.
