Apparently already there is bigger version of KO Mickey Mouse Prime available, according to a thread at HK-TF.

This looks a lot better than the acurately sized KO that's already been seen. Colours look good, Mickey is there (so presumably in both modes?) and the stated size I prefer to the tiny original. I bought an official one as a birthday present for a mate who's Disney mad but the price tag has meant not grabbing one for myself as it's just too much for a niche item that doesn't really fit with my overall collection, but if the price is right on this bigger version I'll consider grabbing one.

Eat it, Disney!

I'll buy this one and repaint it into Rattrap Prime.

Seems pretty risky for the producers of this knock-off: not only infringing the rights of Takara, but especially on the copyrights of Disney and the usage of Mickey Mouse. The size-difference might take care of some legal smallprint as far as Takara's rights are concerned, but (ab)using Mickey Mouse's image should certainly focus some legal interest on this knock off (especally when combined with the additional new interest in TF's due to RotF).

It's toys like this and the 250.00, comic-colored Grimlock that make me think that Takara is coming close to jumping the sharkticon.

I guess you've never been to China

Me and my fellow KOllectors have been posting our KOllections over on the KO Thread, I need to do a count on how many KO's I have, but I have over 2000 pics of KO's on my site

There were ROTF KO's before the movie came out

I'm hoping they make an oversize Xi Yang Yang Sheep Cartoon version of this next lol

Even awesomer would be if they put a Thomas The Train head on it, or a Yao Ming head

Is anyone else amused that this Knock off is "Mickey Mouse". A term commonly used to describe something that is cheap and badly made.

If you wish to see the toy itself, click actoys thread link. An user posted images where he opened up the package and showed us the toy.
