What does that mean? They cut off 10% and replaced it?

How does the box match?
2002 reissue:
The auction in question:
Unless the big white box with Asian text in it is a label slapped on after the fact, rather then something printed on the box itself. I suppose there's no way to know unless someone asks the seller.

I noticed there are many reissue's being sold. Are these types with the back cardboard that says " Transformers" fake? No where does the ebay ad say Hasbro or Tak. This is the link http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Transformers-G1-OPTIMUS-PRIME-Re-issue-Collection-SET-MISB-Brand-NEW-/181299474552?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item2a364a7078
Because I see the common Optimus reissue don't have that extra cardboard. link here http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Hasbro-Transformers-G1-Reissue-Optimus-Prime-Mint-in-Box-/321242369088?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item4acb898c40
Is the first link a legit thing?

Yes, but it can be an expensive teacher!
