Just looking for some reviews and feedback. From some here who might have bought these Knock offs toys.

Seriously, Considering getting the KO MP G-2 Sideswipe.

I'm a bit worried that Hasbro might not release the MP Sideswipe toy in the states. I'm prepared to wait till Botcon,to see if Hasbro says yes or no.

I havent bought any but i'm having a pretty hard time trying to figure out who's the legit sellers on ebay at the moment , guess i'm just gonna take a risk i can always get my money back of ebay if it's a KO

For some excellent comparison videos check out Rocket Punch Army on youtube .

I'm tempted to get a KO red alert.... because My Masterpiece red Alert has f*cking weird paint defects on his chest! wth? It was fine when i took it out now there is spots? i don't know what could have happened. just took it out transformed and place in a detolf. I'll see If I can get pics of it. anyway thinking about getting the KO and replace the chest with that piece if possible.

I don't really buy KOs, but I'm particularly against MP KOs. The modern incarnation of the MP line is one of the coolest things to happen to Transformers in many, many years. Thus, from a principled standpoint of wanting HasTak to continue churning figures out, I don't buy MP KOs.

I do, however, support Mooncake buying them for parts.

I have the KO Sideswipe and it's really good. I compared it to my friends real one and the KO actually had better paint! :lol:

The irony! To check for an authentic version, paint quality should suck. :lol:

I've made a decision. I'm going to be buying the KO version of MP G-2 Sideswipe. The $39.99 price with free shipping does seem like a great deal.

i like all of those words :APPLAUSE:

of all the things to support, MP should be one of them. and the money youre saving, isnt enough to justify it in my opinion. ive bought KO's, but only of things that hastak had never produced like chms seekers, or were ridiculously expensive like chms wildrider (who i actually bought to wear shadow scyther and keep my real wildrider by himself).

buying KO MP's youre saving 40 bucks at most? and i mean the MP's that are still readily available. i dont support it.

*gets down from soap box*

Just be warned that you get what you pay for. At $40 for a KO MP figure, it will most likely not be all its cracked up to be.
