For it to be a KO, there needs to be an "original" for it.

The 20th Anniv Masterpiece trailer came before MP-4 if I assume correctly so one could claim that the MP-4 trailer is actually the KO.

(correct me if I'm wrong)

Nope, you are right about the timing. However, there was an original. G1 prime is the orioginal design. They just blew up the size and simplified it. Like the WST dinos. They are KOs as they are mini versions of the orignal dinos.

If it is only a KO if there is an original of the sae scale, then that would make all the mini combiners, enlarged Combiners, Odd colored "G1 Reissues", and all the other KOs out of china into, well, non KOs, for lack of a better word.

If the justit stuff is not KO, then the Nemesis Mirage and mini combiners made in China a few months ago are not KOs either.

A goo d example is the oversized Bruticus made in China about 10 years ago. Quality was fantastic. Size was fantastic. Colors were perfect. Yet it was rightly considered a KO though it sells on ebay for 150-200 now

I was just answering the poster's question of whether or not this was Justitoy's trailer or a KO of Justitoys trailer. I agree that the trailer is not an official Transformers trailer.

Oh, nothing personal. I just randomly grabbed your post to quote as a few people mentioned that it is not a KO. I felt that was unfair to our Chinese TF amking friends as I am sure that they would love to have their product called the "Chinese version" instead of "Cheap KO." :grin:
