Is this real? there was a G1 accurate MP-03 Masterpiece Starscream that is not in the Walmart packaging?

It's a custom box with a Walmart Exc Hasbro SS.
It's been around a long time.

Yea I've seen the custom box too. but seller is saying its shrink wrapped (meaning MISB?) thought the custom box might have came from somewhere... and this is auction legit.. kind of deceiving.... I mean what if theres a skywarp inside?

The box is definitely fake, a custom. Takara did release its own version of MP-3 Starscream in G1 colors, with minor differences from the Hasbro version, but as a "USA Edition", meaning the US packaging was retained.
