I know these are KOs, but I'm pretty sure I had a broken version of the real blue truck. And the yellow truck has a had like the g1 combiners so I wonder if these are KO of some foreign exclusives.

Someone Identified one of my accessories (a red version of the blue triangle chest in the first picture) and the bot it goes to is a cool KO I've never seen. I think I have the dump truck arm too, although I might just have the gobot that looks like it.
The piece goes to a Devastator knockoff called Mr Hard Hat, made by a company called Four Star. He came in a variety of colors. Here's a pic:

The three orange clear plastic parts in V should be KO version Robot Masters accessories: OP's gun (left), Air Hunter's sword (middle), and missile launcher sold with OP, Meg or Starscream (right). They are most probably KOs as no clear orange version of parts are officially sold by Hasbro nor Takara.
From TransformerWiki:
http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Arsenal_Force
"The 'Space Warriors' knockoffs of the small Robot Masters toys come with blue solitarium weapons that can be combined into Arsenal Force, although as one might expect the tolerances are poor".

This gun says barricade, but I've never seen it before. Its a child size gun, not an accessory.

Found your gun, LD2062. i think Bumblebee came in a Radio Shack set like this, too, and maybe Optimus Prime.
http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Barricade_%28Movie%29#Micro_IR_Transformers_Cars wrote:Micro IR Transformers Cars
Barricade (2007)
Made under license by RadioShack. Three-function infrared remote, in Barricade's signature colors, gives you control of the car with forward and reverse turn movement. More than just a vehicle styled after the Movie character, the car also transforms to robot mode. The transformation is very reminiscent of the Generation 2 Gobots, but the toy is an entirely new mould.
The top of the gun-shaped IR remote serves as a storage point for Barricade, but the remote can't stand freely so it's nearly useless for display. The tip of the gun's barrel can also be unscrewed to reveal a ballpoint pen, which... wait... what? It's actually just a pen cartridge which sorta hangs freely and is difficult to use for writing, because you have to hold it and support the entire gun's weight while you do.
Each of the Micro IR toys comes with a generic instructions sheet printed in black and white and showing the transformation for all three toys.
...so i guess it IS an accessory, after all. "From a certain point of view."
In fact, on the Special Edition DVD for the 2007 TF movie, there's a deleted scene where Barricade uses that enormous gun. And if you believe that, i have a space bridge in Brooklyn to sell you. ;-)

S4 is killing me. I know it.... Or I have one just like it... I am trying to find it either w/ my figs or with my ziplocked accessories.

Actually I found out on what that one is. Its from a KO version of the RID Skidz.
Figured I'd post this here too:
I got these mixed in with a box full of power ranger cycles. They are made by hasbro. They have a recorded phrase, but I cannot understand what it says. Just the word "martian".
Anyone know what these are?

This piece seems so familiar but I just cannot place it. Although it seems more transformers than power rangers to me.

Don't know. Never seen it.
But, S2 is Robot Masters Victory Leo's cannon if it hasn't been posted already. I looked, but didn't see anyone say anything about it.

Are you sure about that? I don't see it on the tfuinfo:
http://www.tfu.info/2004/Cybertron/Vict ... oryleo.htm
someone else identified it as convertors gazzette gun.

Nope, I am not sure about that. I am crazy. Sorry!

Heres some minicon I cannot identify. I don't see any stamps on them either.
The robot ones are all very similar so I assume same maker or series. no clue about the scorpion, but it has a cross shaped connecting peg on the bottom.

Took me a while to remember (by means of searching assorted buzzwords online) where i'd seen gizmos like those before. Not sure about the tank-looking one or the scorpion, but as for the rest, i'm fairly confident they're not Mini-Cons--nor even Transformers. Behold, from Mattel, the makers of Barbie and Hot Wheels... Behold, Robo Wheels. The best (er, only) pics/links i found for Robo Wheels other than on eBay:

Couldn't find exact matches for any of yours, LD2062, but they sure look like the same toyline to me.

Agreed, that definitely seems to be them. Or at least those are the toys they are a KO of. Thank you!
Edit: Found a you tube video that seems to ID all of the robo wheels in my pic.

You've probably ID'd this already (perhaps I missed it). I brought mine out to confirm. P11 is the dual orange gun for Dai Atlas. It's also possibly KO. I don't know how to tell the difference between the original and the KO.
Posted: Thu Nov 10, 2011 12:16 pm
by LD2062
No I don't think anyone has identified that yet. P1 looks to be his black gun too.
Now if only I had a clue as to where I might have put those.

I don't know how I missed that being his black gun considering I brought out my bag of Dai Atlas accessories.
I should have identified that one too!

If I find them I'll try to take a bunch of pictures. Hopefully there is some feature on the that'll tell me if they are genuine or not. Although I'd bet even KO's would be welcome to many people considering how rare that guy is.

Mine's a knock off and it looks identical. However, just like you said, considering how rare they are - people will want them either way.
