First there was the Marvel Spiderman knock off City Nimrod, next was the knock off of DC’s Batman action figure and now, the knock off version of Hasbro’s Transformer Optimus Prime.
You’ll note the picture of just the head of the knock off Optimus on the left there. No I didn’t take it apart in that sense. Removing the head is all part of the design of this Dollarama toy.

Well, it looks like the 11 inch army guy is going to get a makeover. I found an equipment pack for 11 inch army soldiers at a new dollar store I went to. I have not seen any other 11, 11.5 or 12 inch army figures at any of the dollar stores I have been to since the first one I picked up, so you can probably imagine my surprise when I actually found an accessory set for one. They didn’t give him anything good in the original package so they make you have to spend another buck on better gear and equipment.

Another cheap action figure I found at one of the dollar stores is the Super Hero Batman action figure. He has a different costume design, no cape and gold dust designs on his black suit. He also comes with a gigantic bow and arrow with 2 suction cup dart arrows. The bow is colored the same way as the suit.
That’s typical of Batman though, marking his toys with his own logos and symbols.

The 11 Inch Army Soldier is a dollar store action figure that comes with a really, really happy guy who looks like a black Ken doll. He is wearing a cloth hat, a cloth uniform, a left boot and a right boot. The reason I specify a left and right boot is because upon closer inspection, I found out they are actually 2 different boots. At first, I thought the uniform just came out of the boot but they really are 2 different boots. One is shorter than the other and that is why it was not tucked in.
