Super Change Tomas (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbm_hPKPrp8). A video review of a toy that's a cross between Transformers, Super Sentai... and Thomas the Tank Engine. Yes. Really. And here's a Japanese blog post (http://www.moeyo.com/2009/11/toyfes_19_dynamic_koguma.html) with even more pictures of this bizarre mutation.[/quote]Reminds me of that Covertor Train (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYRK5lzfb9w) Ashens did a video of recently. Also managed to find another one (http://www.theshiznit.co.uk/feature/bootleg-toys-fund-terrorism-worst-movie-toy-knock-offs.php) that's apparently from a Japanese company. Seriously, why are these companies obsessed with combining Transformers and Thomas the Tank Engine? Also among that page is Batman riding a horse because Harry Potter stole his Batmobile and gave it a chavvy paint job as well as a cross between Transformers and the Titanic. Here's (http://www.i-mockery.com/blabber/2010/04/10/bizarre-toy-find-2-titanic-bot/) the latter in more detail. :D
A couple I remember from watching Brydo's video of weird toys would be the Supper Rangers and that mutant cross between Winnie the Pooh and an arachnid, neither of which I can find a picture of ATM. :\
Oh, and apparently Bruceploitation isn't just prevalent in films and pirated games. Looking on Google Images I found this topic (http://forums.toynewsi.com/index.php?showtopic=2060915) showing a series of Super Powers toys.
Also, it might be worth pointing out that these POS are easy to find in places like Poundland (or whatever the equivalent is elsewhere) and the Mediterranean. Pokémon/Yu-Gi-Oh/etc bootleg cards tend to be very common in Cyprus from what I've noticed.- Title: Bootleg Toys

Usually with utterly nonsensical Engrish on the packaging, to boot.
They're pretty common at flea markets, too-- I know I've seen bootleg Yu-Gi-Oh cards and some sort of obviously fake Spider-Man (I think it was the one that was spelled "Spidar-Men", but it might've been another one) at my local flea market.

Reminds me of that Covertor Train (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYRK5lzfb9w) Ashens did a video of recently.[/quote]Wow, how did I miss that? I need to just subscribe to Ashens' channel already. :)
Oh, yeah, another thing: as I hinted at above with Bear of the Interest, bootleg toy makers love their Eurodance.
There are a bunch of toy phones-- including the infamous "Benign Girl" line (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVNYgU-5gLM)-- that play the first line of Smile.DK's "Butterfly" in a loop. And then there's the Spiderman knockoff version (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XExYuPuiUg).
There's a whole line of toys that plays the refrain from "Kiss Kiss" by the Vengaboys. Over. And over. And over. Like this dog (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_ao8tnESXk&feature=related). And this Mini Cooper (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCImXgD1Yhk).
And then there's these Pooh toys (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwX5DYJdB6c) reviewed by Mike Mozart. One of them plays "Around the World" by Aqua; the other is "My World" by Sophie. And then there's a Lightning McQueen knockoff that plays 2 Unlimited.
Speaking of Cars, Mike did a video on Cars knockoffs too. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgmr7NP-qbw&feature=player_embedded) One of 'em has the same Sophie sound chip from the Pooh toy. The other one is a strange mutant Lightning McQueen with wheels going around larger wheels, that plays... "The Lonely Goatherd" from The Sound Of Music. What.
Edit: Yet another one with the Sophie sound chip: Creepy Mutant Flashing Nemo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mB-h6OBCdFk).- Title: Bootleg Toys

Funnily enough, one of my mates had some odd wand or something that also played a loop of Butterfly, except it was the whole chorus and it played at a reasonable speed. Also, why is it that the stolen music is slightly faster than normal with these toys?
Edit: Just found this bootleg toy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rPDumBuuLs) of Mario and Yoshi, or rather demon-eyed Yoshi and Stewie Griffin's mutant brother. :P- Title: Bootleg Toys

Post by: codeman38 on April 29, 2011, 01:17:34 PM- I just realized that the song Bear of the Interest plays isn't Smile.DK, it's Aqua's "Lollipop". (To be fair, the sound quality was so terrible that I couldn't decipher the lyrics at all, and they're both Scandinavian bubblegum-dance groups, so yeah...)
(For the even more curious, the line repeated over and over and over appears to be "I wish that I were a bubble gum, chewing on me, baby, all day long.")
Edit: What caused me to realize this, incidentally? Yep, yet another bootleg toy. Specifically, this egg-laying chicken (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FU55_dKZQsk) which has the very same sound chip (of course!).- Title: Bootleg Toys

Post by: Linkrulezall on August 07, 2011, 08:43:42 PM- Apologies for whacking a dead horse (or in this case, a dead post) for the umpteenth time, but I've got some more news regarding the bootleg toys.
I was in a flea market a few days ago and there was a few chinese guys who unloaded a huge truckload ofcrapchinese knockoffs. Among these was Gusto Choochoo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R20A6yUz8wE&NR), a Thomas knockoff which I found a video of on youtube. It actually looks quite a lot like thomas and sounds quite a lot like a train, so they're headed the right way. Unfortunately, they mucked it up with all the strobe lights. >_>
Then there's The Pooh Train (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXCwq-36KYM) which seems less like a train and more like a mutant rolling seizure-inducing dance club with the same sound chip as Mike's 3rd "Lightning McQueen" bootleg. :shock:
I didn't bring a camera, and I couldn't find a video of this one. It's a Pikachu driving a Ferrari with a sped-up loop of Mr. Brownstone by Guns N' Roses (With the word Motherf**ker still included) with flashing headlights. Pikachu bops his head, and a random anime girl in the trunk. O_o
Well that rounds out the trifecta. Pretty weird, huh? I would upload my re-creation of the Brownstone loop, but I can't find a reliable audio server.- Title: Bootleg Toys

SuperCycle - Pikachu on a motorcycle with the brownstone chip in it. I think they came from the same company.
Pokemon vs Panda - a badly motorized diorama of a panda beating the crap out of pikachu.

Apparently, it's a bag based off House M.D. and Quake III Arena with the Apple logo, a pink Pikachu and that bloke from The Prodigy. :rolleyes:
Edit 2: On closer inspection, that last one is probably a photoshop job. Wouldn't be surprised (well, not entirely) if it was real though. :whistle:[/quote]That last one is indeed a Photoshop-- but it's based on the very real Harry Potter Obama Sonic bookbag (http://failblog.org/2010/02/03/backpack-fail-2/).[/quote]I'm aware of that one already; I figured whoever produced that made a line of "bags with a load of nonsensical decals". They need to make one based off Harry's Legend or something.
BTW, I just found 11 pages worth (http://www.sonicgear.org/BootlegFakes/HowToAvoidBootlegs.html) of Sonic bootlegs. I don't even know where to start here, hence why I provided the link. Quite frankly, some of these things are produced so lazily wouldn't be surprised if Sonicfags made them. :P- Title: Bootleg Toys

Moving on, I found yet another page with some bootleg toys (http://www.i-mockery.com/minimocks/olvera-street/), mainly cheapo action figure sets. One of them features Naruto for no apparent reason. He barely qualifies as a ninja, let alone a super hero. :P I also love the obvious photoshop job on the Puffer Ball box. (I don't think that counts a bootleg toy, but whatever)- Title: Bootleg Toys
Post by: mimitchi33 on August 09, 2011, 09:26:45 AM- Not even toy phenomenons of many years ago can prevent themselves from bootlegers.
Here's the Furbish, a knockoff of the Furby! (http://www.reasonablyclever.com/bootlegtoys/photos/furby/furbish/furbish.html) This article has funny statements about the toy, and even states that if you change channels on a TV, he will wake up! In this video, they show what actually happens during a chat between the Furbish and a Japanese Furby. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gihyn_MLWE),
Then there's the Furdy, which was found in the UK at the peak of the Furby craze. (http://www.reocities.com/athens/bridge/1111/furdy.htm) It wears a bow tie that also can be taken off, so that's an easy way to tell if your Furby is, well, a Furdy! It also sings Old McDonald, like the Furbish in the video above! This is a video demo of some things this lovely knockoff does! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMGSSy_IzNg)
Tamagotchis, another "toy phenomenon", have been bootleged as well. Here's an example of a Japanese Tamagotchi bootleg, Thimagotcha Color (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNgr6xCjZVk).
This site has tons of knockoff Tamagotchi toys. (http://jidantoys.en.ecplaza.net/)
It's time to take a trip waaaaaaay back in time, because back in the 80's, there was such thing as bootleg Cabbage Patch Kids! There are a few articles on the web about them. This article said that they have a kerosene smell instead of the iconic baby power smell. (http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=EREhAAAAIBAJ&sjid=HHQFAAAAIBAJ&pg=5526,1220635&dq=cabbage+patch+kerosene&hl=en) And this one states why children at Diamond Bar Elememtary Schools can't bring in dolls to school-guess which counterfeit doll was the culprit? (http://articles.latimes.com/1985-01-11/local/me-8451_1_dolls)
And about the SpongeBob Caramelldansen thing-I didn't see it, someone else on YouTube said they saw it in NYC on one of the Mike Mozart videos-I think it was the one with "A pooh friction is very interesting" on the box of the toy that played "Around The World"?
By the way, if you want to know the verse that was used for that particular Pooh Toy, it's: "Little by little, it's the finest meal, it's appetite for hope..."
I saw the Lightning McQueen with the Sophie soundchip and Gout at a dollar store once. I even once had a nightmare where I was at a dollar store and every toy in the store played it. I often hear it in dreams where I go to discount stores because well, as I said before, it really freaks me out.
Edit:Yet another bootleg of a toy phenomenon: Beanie Babies. (http://www.aboutbeanies.com/fakes/news.html)
Bootleg Bob's has tons of knockoffs toys on his blog. (http://bootlegbobs.tumblr.com/)

Does Bear Of The Interest want to wear a bubblegum wrapper, or become a bubblegum dance group? (that's another name for Europop, by the way)- Title: Bootleg Toys

3.Oh, and my friend Brights Brightly had a bootleg Cabbage Patch. She called it a "Kerosene Kid". We even parodied the first song on Cabbage Patch Dreams to make fun of her doll!
4.These Spongebob dolls that sing Caramelldansen are for real? What's next, a Dora The Explorer doll that sings Justin Bieber or an Elmo singing Soulja Boy?

[/quote]Lol I looked at some of those, and they have one with a stylist, wtf? Wouldn't be surprised if it didn't even work considering the Thimagotcha Color wasn't even in color!
Oh btw I just remembered how I actually have these weird pirated/unlicensed Pokemon posters. One is of the Mewtwo Strikes Back movie poster, where they badly photoshoped an image of Mewtwo onto the poster, and apparently he was in some kind of yellow background so there's yellow all around him and in between him. Also on the same poster there are two Pikachus, and they're also poorly photoshoped on there. One is the Gen 1 Pikachu and the other is the I think either Gen 2 or 3 Pikachu, problem is the character designs look different so they don't even match. The second one is a big Pikachu on a green poster. This one's not as bad, just that Pikachu looks like it was a very small image they increased the size of so it looks like very bad quality. And the last on is of a whole bunch of Pokemon, this actually doesn't look that bad, I forget completely what it looked like. I have to dig those things out of storage lol.- Title: Bootleg Toys
Post by: FlanDo on August 13, 2011, 09:09:21 PM- I payed a dollar for a foam rocket shooter with "super rochet launcher" on it. The "rochet" broke 2 weeks later. Along with a cheap baseball set with cardboard bat. Go figure.

Post by: Linkrulezall on August 26, 2011, 05:13:32 PM- Remember the first bootleg on this page, the Super Change Tomas? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnrbCrZgd60) well, I think I may know where they came from. Lo and behold, This cartoon that an independent animator made for his son. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwCOG-2ORrc)
Also, while I couldn't find The travelion knockoff version, (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbm_hPKPrp8) I did find The other variety on Ebay. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/new-Thomas-Tank-Combiner-TRANSFORMERS-DEVASTATOR-3-1-/170685053926?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27bd9f3be6#ht_998wt_1270) I'm not encouraging anyone here to buy it, but that's like putting a pie in front of a child and telling him not to eat it. They're up for 8.50 US dollars. And also, if you search for Thomas Transformer on ebay, some poor sap thinks he has a rare item when it's clearly the bootleg, and he's selling it for 150 bucks!

Post by: Linkrulezall on August 29, 2011, 04:04:51 PM- Remember that creepy mutant flashing Nemo from the first page of this topic? Well, I found out that it's based off the very real and totally official iFish (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8iz0-Q2pR0).
And since I'm contractually obligated to bring up another bootleg toy line, I went to a swap meet and found some bootleg Team Fortress 2 figures! They came in packs of 2, and you can get 'em for 2 bucks a piece. I bought the Heavy, Scout, Sniper, and Spy. There's no fancy lights or sound, though, which explains why they were essentially a buck apiece. The card at the top says Team Fortress 3, and they're contained in terrible plastic bags that feel like sandvich bags. I'll be uploading pics of them soon.- Title: Bootleg Toys
Post by: mimitchi33 on September 04, 2011, 03:41:06 PM- More bootleg toys!
Meet the Dazzling Magic Bar. (http://precure.livejournal.com/1428964.html) Wait, by "Bar", do they mean "Magical Ice Cream Bar", or were they too lazy to use another word for wand? It's a knock off of this wand from the Pretty Cure series. (http://img.icez.net/i/ob/dreamtorch.jpg)
Then there's the Wizardly Magic Sailor Moon bootlegs, which are near the bottom of the page. (http://www.animecollectibles.com/acnew/ac_sm_toys.php3)Further investigation reveals that every toy in the lineup plays the Pink Sugar Heart Attack music, rather than Eurodance. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GPXmYC0xRbY)
Next, here's another Pooh fake from Mike Mozart. And it rides a motorcycle! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58MVcHhGcUs)
They've now made a bootleg Tow Mater toy! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJ8oYOl5DS8) The Lightning McQueen from the Mike Mozart Cars bootleg toys video that played "My World" by Sophie is by his side, too!
Yet another Mike Mozart video, with TONS of bootleg toys, including Pokemon and WWE. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUupjGCC0S4)

Hey, it's Mr Incredible! Wow, his eyes light up, too! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0np5_AmSJs&feature=related)

Superman rides a dinosaur... (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EC15nzDAkpc&feature=channel_video_title)
Here's a Spiderman Laptop. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rte7sdcyxQ4&feature=relmfu) And instead of Eurodance, like most bootlegs that are like this (Bear Of The Interest), it plays a nursery rhyme.
A very noisy Power Rangers figure. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvTBPu8wPyw&feature=relmfu)
A Spiderman that makes tons of sounds, (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlP_ih2F-Gg&feature=channel_video_title) including a car alarm,a phone,Buzz Lightyear shooting a ray and...The cry of the Pokemon named Ghastly! What the heck were they thinking?
Oh, and I saw a bootleg Thomas The Tank Engine toy at the mall on 9/11/2011 that played either Smile DK's Butterfly or Aqua's Lollipop. Again, what the heck?
You can now buy your very own Funny Car King on eBay! (http://www.ebay.com/itm/lIGHTNING-MCQUEEN-MOTOR-DRIVEN-FUNNY-CAR-KING-BUMP-GO-/120683324538?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c1949647a#ht_848wt_1165) The one that plays Sophie's My World!

Post by: mimitchi33 on September 23, 2011, 09:52:26 PM- Well, I went to the mall today, and the song of the day for most of the toys was "Kiss Kiss" by the Vengaboys. O.o And a train set that played a song that I have seen many times this year that (I think) plays a song that sounds like this Pokemon one! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0G12EBW4KY)
Anyway, here are 2 funny knockoffs I found on some websites.
Here's another variation of the Gout car...but he's Mr Bear this time! (http://eshop.ahmedabad.com/Shop-online-pooh-bear-picnic-musical-car-india/THI0065.htm)
A generic toy train with hilarious Engrish. "More new items avalible!" (http://eshop.ahmedabad.com/Train-Set-Battery-Operated-And-Musical-Toy/SRM0040.htm) Wait, do the little kiddies have to collect every toy that plays the same song this plays?

I actually bought this one (2 bucks) and recorded a video of it. The audio was incredibly quiet, so I actually had to record it seperate (no way to change the batteries in this one, It'll probably be a mass of corrosion in 2 months) and edit it in using windows movie maker

I never knew that babies crawl while their hands and feet are glowing. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ee2YUawDJic&feature=related)

You can now buy your very own Funny Car King on eBay! (http://www.ebay.com/itm/lIGHTNING-MCQUEEN-MOTOR-DRIVEN-FUNNY-CAR-KING-BUMP-GO-/120683324538?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c1949647a#ht_848wt_1165) The one that plays Sophie's My World!
[/quote]That's not THE funny car king, This Is. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-LIGHTNING-MCQUEEN-BATTERY-FUNNY-CAR-W-LIGHTS-SOUND-/200649501325?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2eb7a46a8d) The jokers at wmsholdings2010llc on ebay basically sell nothing but knockoffs. I also found Gusto Choochoo and a "Winnie Thr Pooh" toy phone among others mentioned previously here.- Title: Bootleg Toys
Post by: Linkrulezall on September 26, 2011, 09:42:19 PM- Sorry about the bump but trust me, this REALLY deserves it. I can't find the figure this came with, but I saved the card, and you'll see why.
Reason 1 - The sheer blatant fakery
Reason 2 - The hilarious typo in the name
I scanned the card this came with, sharpened up the image a little (shrunk the size), cropped out the white, and BAM!Spoiler: click to toggle
I personally think that name smokes out Bear of the Intrest and Vague Shat as far as bootleg names go.- Title: Bootleg Toys

More Nemo crap. Just as scary as the first one. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L61i-WdMMck)
"Fish stick fish stick, where are you?" ROFL, that is now my 2nd favorite bootleg toy, only beaten by "Bear of Interest" simply because I love that title so much..[/quote]Well, my favorite bootleg toy just happens to be this bootleg Shugo Chara Humpty Lock. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2NdPTjrjdA)
After all of those "superheroes on motorcycle" bootlegs, like the SailorBike (http://www.reasonablyclever.com/bootlegtoys/photos/smoon/bike/sbikedetail.jpg), you thought they wouldn't get any of the baby shows, would they? Now there's Motorcycle Winnie The Pooh! (http://www.ebay.com/itm/HAPPY-TIME-WINNIE-BATTERY-OPERATED-MOTORCYCLE-/190573766689?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c5f14e821#ht_500wt_1180) (Although there was another Pooh one earlier in this thread, this looks too attracting to kiddies!
Ladies and gentlemen, the first toy from the movie Cars 3! (http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-LIGHTNING-MCQUEEN-BATTERY-REMOTE-CONTROL-CAR-/190573755247?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c5f14bb6f#ht_500wt_1180) Well, what do you expect from this bootleg?
This is for Linkrulezall. It's a Thomas the Tank engine that has a pop-out mini Transformer at the top. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-BATTERY-OPERATED-THOMAS-TRAIN-TRANSFORMER-/190534148075?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c5cb85feb#ht_500wt_1180)
I don't remember "Bakugaun" having a "BakuCar" during the series. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-BATTERY-OPERATED-BAKUGAN-SPEED-RACING-SUV-/200652303955?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2eb7cf2e53#ht_500wt_1180)
This is the Toy Story 3 Police Car, and the scary thing is that it's actually safe for ages 3 and up! (http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-TOY-STORY-3-BATTERY-OPERATED-SPACE-RANGER-CAR-/190574848137?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c5f256889#ht_500wt_1180)

Post by: Linkrulezall on October 14, 2011, 02:42:22 PM- I don't know what this bootleg is, as I've only seen the thumbnail, but I don't wanna watch it! Can someone else tell me what it is? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lsCr3SHwg8&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL)

Post by: KingPepe on October 14, 2011, 07:47:54 PM- It's some bunny flashing colors riding a cat whose eyes blink red. I'm more interested in that ripoff Mickey thing behind it.

Post by: Linkrulezall on October 15, 2011, 10:08:46 AM- Here's a bunch of fake toys found and seized in a warehouse. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcbBc7xedps) Some of it is slightly interesting, lika a fake Doctor Who car, "Bear and Tiger" walkie talkies, a version of the Funny Car King that actually says Cars instead of King, and many more.
Then there's a bootleg Halo assault rifle. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=pKj9fOixd-0)
This guy made a video featuringa pack of fake Yu-Gi-Oh cards, a really weird fake gun, and a really crappy microphone. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUbnjtpmpI0)
And finally, my nephew got a red and blue flashing RC car that rather than eurodance, plays belly-dancing music.- Title: Bootleg Toys

Post by: taizou on October 15, 2011, 04:24:19 PM- Well I lived there for a long time, a lot of distributors of dodgy plug & play consoles and the like were based in the area. Power Joy UK for example used to be about a 5 minute walk from my house. But that was before I had any idea about pirates so I never thought to go and pay them a visit D:
I'm not sure why its such a hub of bootleggy activity though - even though all the distributors are based there, I rarely ever saw anything like that in shops or anything, or even on market stalls. Apart from the "Wow" console I got late last year anyway. There was far more in Hull really.- Title: Bootleg Toys
Post by: mimitchi33 on October 31, 2011, 09:15:47 PM- You know the Dazzling Magic Bar (http://www.curemoon.com/altro/pretty-cure-fake-toy-wand.jpg) I showed you earlier? Well, as it turns out that the wand was not a bootleger's one-of-a-kind attempt at a knock-off Dream Torch from Pretty Cure, but from a show called Balala Magic Fairy. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZI0NRWhG62k&feature=related)
More Cars crap. Just as scary as the one with too many wheels. (http://www.takefiveaday.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/mater-smokey.jpg)
A whole site deticated to bootleg Sonic stuff. (http://www.sonicgear.org/BootlegFakes/HowToAvoidBootlegs.html)
Think Thomas was the only kiddie show that can be a Transformer? Now there's Mouseformers, (http://cdn.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/attach/4/0/5/9/7/11_1242080982.jpg) featuring everybody's favorite mouse, Mickey Mouse!
Pocket Monica Chess, (http://www.blogcdn.com/www.comicsalliance.com/media/2011/03/bootleg03.jpg) a really weird chess game with poor spelling and spacing errors.
And now, here's a 5-parter about bootleg toys at flea markets!
