    Official BOOTLEG TOY picture thread!!

    I'd love to see your best bootleg toys, here's some I've come across in the last few years.



    Bootleg Sectaur, totally out of scale. made of hard unarticulated plastic, with movable arms.



    Um, yeah. Superman. sure. Has a button to make very tiny light glow in the front. $1.50 at local buck shop.



    Space of the apes. 2" vinyl figures from 90's remake(?). Only two figures I could find.



    Shogun warrior style party favours. Come in packs of 5 for a dollar. Wish I had of bought them all, as they are now gone. Have about 10 different ones.



    THE WORST BOOTLEGS EVER!!! prove me wrong!!! You just got lead poisoning by looking at them, sorry about that.



    90's bootleg Power Rangers. I have a few more, at least the arms move.







    12" blow mold Hulk that came with a parachute. I flipped when I found this thing, now I can't remeber why. Has ninja feet and hands. Yes I said NINJA FEET AND HANDS. Arms and legs used for batman as well, which explains that.



    Blow molded Darth Vader, unsure the year of make. would love to find others like it.

          I'm a big "Ninja Turtles" fan. Here is a picture of Bootleg/Knockoff figures. The four turtles and Master Splinter are fakes. The official large turtles were much larger and Playmates never made a Master Splinter bigger than the standerd 4-5 inch figure. The Bebop and Rocksteady at each end is official made by Playmates. There is even a small figure in front to show the size difference.


          Here's Master Splinter with bootleg box.


          Here's Mike with 2 different bootleg boxes.


          Definately a neat idea for a thread. I'll have to dig out more.

            That Hulk has an expression on his face like he just went it for his yearly exam.
            It's all good!

                Hey Stretchandro, your freakie Hulk looks like he actually has Ninga "Turtle"arms and legs. I was looking at the Turtle pics above and they match .
                Way Cool stuff you have there, that KO vader rocks !
                By the way, does the Hulk Turtle have pointy ears? He kind of looks like it in the photos.

                Keepin' it Mego-ey !

                  hey jwiz154 i thought you might like to take a look at these
                  got these from a shut down toy factory... i got the backing cards, the bubbles and the figures and weapons... showed them to a few turtle nuts and they cant decide if the backing cards are original or not, the toy factory was a repitable one, the figure on the right is stamped and looks official to me the figure on the left is a light weight no stamps
                  someone on a turtles site said the backing cards look legit, as most bootleg turtle backing cards are plain back, shame its all japanese/chinese ?

                  anyways thought you might enjoy the pics this is just a small sample... i got lots lots more

                        That Space of the Apes packaging is pretty cool, (Zira holding a gun?), too bad the figures aren't.

                          Yeah, the Space Apes are a riot. Figures suck but the stolen Addar model kit art with superimposed weaponry is priceless!

                            Would love to see the rest of those apes from space.
                            I was thinking of starting a thread on the subject of Mexican toys. I like this one a lot better! It covers the globe.
                            I've collected some DC and Marvel Mexican toys off ebay. Mostly playset plastic figures. Marx reproductions, a series of Marvel figures I've never seen else where. I really enjoy the Header-Card bags of plastic goodies!

                              It's more than possible the company that was bootlegging hulk also bootlegged some turtles. They probably did turtles first and changed the torso molds later. Here's a crappy picture of hulk with batman. I've seen a better photo of batman and it's definitely the same legs/arms.
