A example of a knock off is the flimsy yellow constructicons that you buy from Big Lots, a third party toy is I-Gear, etc..
They are NOT the same.
A KO is a remake of an existing figure using the same mold (a recast).
A 3rd party is someone like fansproject, maketoys, etc that make their own original toys from their own new molds and do not recast.
IE: Kup's comic head is an original 3er party product, not a KO because it did not exist before.
Now please answer the question.
Anyone that thinks I may be wrong, please contact Hasbro's PR department, they will inform you of their stance on the matter.

there for the items you just showed me are KO's, though I prefer to call them 3rd Party,
Reproductions.
Now if it was a new character that they had created themselves, then
that would be different..
And congrats on the recent purchase,I own them both as well..
I'm a big fan, hence why I sell 3rd Party/ KO toys for those that cant get them.
Now, do you have anything to say to me thats not blatently obvious as a means to
just annoy me..?
Because seeing as your a Mod I find it slightly less than amusing you rehashing stuff and
trying to force your personal opinions on others.
I answered your question, do you have any more? If so I'll try and get to them tomm, I have
a nice cold drink an a episode of American dad to get to.
Night..
Now, do you have anything to say to me thats not blatently obvious as a means to

1. No flaming, trolling, harassing, or baiting other guests.
Flaming should be self evident, trolling means to make posts or threads for the intended purpose of starting an argument, while baiting is any post intended to make another user resort to flaming. Harassment means following a user or group of users around through multiple threads to flame them, bait them, or otherwise cause them to want to avoid the boards because of a user's actions towards them. If there is a discussion and there ends up some sort of disagreement on someones personal opinion, simply try and respect each others opinions without forcing them on others.
5. No Spam or Commercial Advertising.
Do not make threads that have absolutely no constructive purpose (such as "Post about anything here!" threads). If your thread does not have at least some attempt at a topic, it will be considered spam and locked. This includes spam posts just so you can pad your post count. We are also not here to be free advertising to make you money. If you want to advertise on Seibertron.com, contact a moderator or the site admin and we'll see about working something out with you. Otherwise, any thread linking to a commercial site for the express purpose of getting guests to buy things from it will be locked, and the link removed. Do not continuously bump your thread as this can be considered spam to pad up your post count, let others move it back to the top.
11. Mod's the Word
If a moderator/administrator has to step in and hand out warnings/bans or other disciplines adhere to their wishes. Do not treat the warning as grounds for a personal vendetta. Warnings are carefully thought out, and flaming, bating or harassing a staff member because of it will only lead to a harsher reprimand.
