@@weelzneal4768 Same. I think it’s because a) I hate the way everything is a goddamn meme these days, and b) it’s needlessly morbid. It’s pretty fucked up to talk about somebody dying/suggest someone has died just for the sake of some cheesy-ass “lols”. (I can appreciate dark humor at times, but there’s a difference between a quick, sharp little quip and constantly making the same uninspired gag that has already been made exactly the same way a few million times before.) Also I can’t fucking stand everybody doing and saying the same shit as everybody else. It’s not funny, it’s not cute, and it’s damn sure not clever. A whole lot of people desperately need to open a can of shut the fuck up. Ugh.
The Google translate segments were like rapid fire gags unto themselves, loved them. Especially the ominous "Chaotong's wife is in trouble and ancient voice."
When the people in charge of the translating app realize Chaotong's wife is in trouble and try to sneak a secret message to see if someone can help, but Phelous is the one who receives it and is too busy checking out bootleg toys to care.
Schoolmate 1: “WHAT ARE THOSE!!?” Schoolmate 2: “At least my shoes can transform!” *Shoes transforms* Schoolmate 1 (in King MaGawd’s voice): “MA GAWD!!”
I literally laughed at the silly image at 7:03. It was _definitely_ worth it to see Super Thomas wearing these, Phelous. 😄 Also enjoyed seeing you put Google Translate through its paces to try and give us translations for blurbs. What a magical language Chinese is when it can be putting up such potential translations as, "Super Paper!" and "Super Shadow Shoes Left Difficulty," and let's not forget everyone's favorite, "Superb deformation shoes are difficult to reconcile" - Thank you, Google, for giving us such insight into these amazing and dumb bootleg packaging. What a time to be alive!
Gotta admit this bootleg is pretty good considering it comes with both left & right shoe Megatrons who both come with their blasters! Always nice to see bootleggers put more effort into their products than the official release!
It's weird seeing a bootleg that I actually had as a kid on this show. Although it was the Optimus one, and I think it was an even cheaper bootleg that didn't have a gun for the figure, was all white and orange, and was an utter pain to properly transform, and I think it eventually broke when trying to do that.
Dude; a new episode of Bootleg Zones! ON VETERANS DAY!!!!! & As a Disabled Veteran I’d like to say; “life is gooood!” Thank you Phelous, you made MY Holiday Awesome lol
Okay, I've never heard of the "Transformers" Sports Label line. I've seen Transformers figures that can turn into Marvel Superheroes/Villains, Star Wars Characters, Dracula, the Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters, and the DeLorean from Back to the Future, but Shoes? I kind of want to see Hasbro partner up with "Reebok" and make a Transformer out of there "Pump" sneakers. The tagline would be "Transformers Reebok, Pump it Up, Transform, and Air it Out!"
They had some other weird Transformers crossovers in Japan. Street Fighter: They're just existing Transformers painted in the colors of Street Fighter characters, including painting their faces as if they were human skin. The Arcee / Chun-Li one is pretty cool, but the other three (Ryu, Ken, and Vega (the dictator guy) aren't very good at all. I read recently that they were going to bring these to the US. Device Label were Transformers that turned into working computer accessories. Ravage (and various other cat recolores) that turned into a USB thumb drive, Grimlock and a Trypticon recolor that turned into computer mice, A Blaster that turned into a USB hub which was shaped like a Toshiba laptop, Soundwave that turned into an MP3 player, and, the lamest one, Rumble and Frenzy that turned into a pair of headphones. R & F looked crappy as robots and their headphones mode was really awkward to use. Disney Label: Mickey, Donald, and Buzz Lightyear piloting robots that turn into robot versions of themselves. Mickey turned into an Optimus Prime style truck, Donald, a VW Beetle with a surfboard on its roof (which wasn't painted like Herbie: The Love Bug), And Buzz Lightyear turned into a spaceship. There were both color and black and white versions of Mickey and Donald, and for some reason Halloween colored ones. Although not a Transformer, there was a Disney combiner (I think by Bandai) made up of robotic versions of Mickey and his friends. In their QT ChoroQ Transformers, they had Snoopy and Hello Kitty Transformers remolded from the Optimus Prime of the same line. "The tagline would be 'Transformers Reebok, Pump it Up, Transform, and Air it Out!'" Well that's not gonna happen, as Hasbro is now too scared to use the word "transform" on their packages for some reason. So you'll see things written on their boxes like, "Convert and roll out!".
@@KasumiKenshirou And given how Takara Tomy has a long association with Thomas & Friends, I'm surprised they didn't make Japan-only legit Thomas Transformer toys!
Truly hilarious for sure! Megaton as a shoe I absolutely love this video! Bootleg Zones is always fun to watch! You often find the coolest insane stuff on these segments!
I literally couldn't believe that this is a thing that actually exists, even though I'm watching a video of it now! Proteus you are one of a kind my man 👍💯 the amount of bootleg stuff out there I didn't even know this much existed until I found your awesome and hilarious channel 👍💯 keep up the great work man 👍👍💯
🎶 shoeformer more than meets the shoes sneakers bot battle to destroy the evils of the boot deception cons 🎶 wabuu: that song is so stupid * laughs and bops head*
Sports Label is a reminder of why I love Takara, they sometimes just have the most nutty ideas for Transformers. Though what's funny is that with there being four in this bootleg line, that means they actually managed to beat the official considering that one repaint that was called Starscream... which is hilarious in its own way. Starscream chose to try and beat Megs even as footwear.
Thanks Pheolus I needed this after hearing about Kevin Conroy's death. I personally have an Optimus version with Star saber colours & yes the first few times you transform it is frustrating, but you get how it works.
LMAO! I could not help but laugh when the Google Translate came up with "Superb Deformation Shoes are Difficult to reconcile" - YEAH, THATS 100% ACURATE! Describes the official Line too!
I don't know why RUclips failed to notify me when you uploaded this, Phelous, but I'm never going to forgive them! This latest incredible entry to the Bootleg Zone is way too good! I'd never even heard of the official version, let alone the knockoff! Such a strange thing for a robot to turn into - not just a shoe, but a big name brand shoe. As always, my favorite part was when you played with the toys at the end of the video. That will never cease to entertain! Someday you should make a full-length video with all the members of the Bootleg Zone Cinematic Universe. I'd love to see Nike Megatron, like, team up with Motorcycle the Pooh to do battle against Big Cock and/or Bat Hero. I just know you'd have us laughing ourselves silly! Thanks again for this truly magnificent video, Phelous. You did a fantastic job, like always! I'm so sorry it took me so long to find it, but to my everlasting dismay, RUclips failed to notify me. Keep up the awesomeness! ❤️
I'm honestly surprised Takara Tomy didn't do a series of Transformers toys that transformed into kitchen appliances, or legit Transformer versions of Thomas & Friends characters (given how Tomy was Thomas' biggest toy licensee prior to the Mattel buyout, and still makes the Plarail Thomas range for the Japanese market)
Cool, I am now pretty confident that the Thomas the tank engine transformer can be part of the Harlem Globe-Trotters, with these on. You can pump them up... Right?
Wasn't expecting to see bootleg transformer Thomas the Tank Engine wearing two bootleg Megatrons on his feet today! E: or that there were actual shoe transformers made. I'm learning all kinds of important stuff.
If a collab with Nike and Takara for a bunch of Shoe Transformers weren't weird enough... we got Bootlegs of them. I just wish those doofy red eyes on the Megatrons didn't remind me of a certain princess in our castle...
Something occurred to me. Were the official Transformers shoes made in an effort to inspire kids to learn to tie their shoes? Just thought of that because I had a toy clown when I was a kid, with laces, zippers, and buttons.
i can clearly see me as a kid being disappointed upon finding out they aren't actual shoes that you can wear to school then transform them into toys during recess then transform back to wear to class
I kinda like that there's actually holders for the blasters in 'shoe mode.' Even some of the official transformers still forget that stuff.
Hasbro just puts a giant hole in the car mode's roof for you to stick the blaster grip. Weapon Storage!
@@ShinGallonbecause nothing says a disguise like a car with a giant gun on the roof
Starscream: "Golden Megatron has Blown Out. Now, I am the leader of the Decepti-Reeboks."
Optimus Prime: One shall stand, one shall trip over a crack in the pavement of the sidewalk
He always was a heel.
Deceptiboks
Conscream inferior. Timberwave, superior.
Decepti-Converse.
The utter lack of care or urgency when hearing about Chaotong's wife being in trouble is why I watch this channel.
Idk why but i hate seeing "rip so&so" in the comments of vids

I went from not knowing Sports Label even existed to wondering why we don't have wearable transforming shoes right now. It was quite the journey.
I can just imagine that. "Darnit, Sean, I told you to transform your sneakers *before* going to bed. You're gonna be late for school now!"
because the plastic would break under the pressure of your body
Schoolmate 1: “WHAT ARE THOSE!!?”
Schoolmate 2: “At least my shoes can transform!”
*Shoes transforms*

I’m surprised the yellow one wasn’t Bumblebee
that would make TOO MUCH sense XD
Bumblebee, why were you not a shoe?
@@gracekim1998 That would require them to make new parts, though.
@@KasumiKenshirou I know 😂
No way. It'd be Goldbug, duh. Dull gold Goldbug.

Shoeformers, Robots on your feet.
Did…..did you just make the perfect theme song/tagline for a Shoeformers spin off?!
"Megatron has fallen arches! I, Starscream, am your new leader!"
go starscream!
"Coro-Nike Airs, Starscream? This is bad comedy."

Mine was colored as Star saber
Decepti-Nikes and the Auto-Crocs!
Instead of two Megatrons, they really should’ve given you a left shoe Megatron and a right shoe Optimus.
"chaotongs wife is in trouble and ancient voice" is my favorite transformer series XD
I already care more about Chaotong's wife and her peril than any of the humans in the Bayformers movies
I really hope Chaotong's wife got things smoothed out with that Ancient Voice.
Now I have the mental image of all the Transformers flying and driving around while the Sports Label ones trying to keep up by jogging as giant shoes.
Dude; a new episode of Bootleg Zones! ON VETERANS DAY!!!!! & As a Disabled Veteran I’d like to say; “life is gooood!” Thank you Phelous, you made MY Holiday Awesome lol
Just the thought that one day you want to put on your shoes then they transform into a robot and run away

Nope but I think there was maybe a ko sega Megatron?
