Something I always get a giggle out of is looking at bootlegged knock-off toys. Where else can you find figures of Spider-Man, Superman, Batman, the Thing, AND Mr. Incredible all in one set? (I kid you not. I actually found this) this one of Astro Boy I found on Ebay is no acception

Oddly, I'd buy this if it turned up in one of my local dollar stores, just to have it for the weirdity!
Atlas and Ochanimizu are coloured completely differently, Uran's got blue tights, and according to this side of the box, it's made by Doll Fashion Inc., who encourages us to "colleteo them all" for their "grand arrangement, grand show".

I thought the same thing about some other bootlegs I found. Like that set I mentioned with the super heros. Even though their paint job sucked XD
