Identify KO Masterpiece

Postby Sideswipe79 » Sat Feb 21, 2015 3:49 am

I have some problems purchasing Takara Tomy Masterpiece here in Italy. There is an online store I trust but is more specialized in Bandai Robot and Saint Seya so you can buy there only the last Masterpieces, I usually buy them on Ebay, looking only for good feedback, but I was wondering if there are some clue and hint that help me to recognize a KO if someone tried to cheat me.

For example I bought Mp17 Prowl with hint joints a little bit weak. Could be a signal?
Someone can help me?

Most KO's sellers on eBay are blatantly honest about what they are selling. I would recommend buying from someone with a long history of TF sales with no rinse and repeats. Honestly, eBay is not the best place to go if you don't want to end up with a KO. Buying new is always an option...and you need not concern about what the seller "accidentally" forgot to put in listing (like broken tabs).

If you do decide to buy ebay MPs avoid any Lamborghini or Fairlady mold like the plague.

Your Italian? Then I suggest you find some online stores in Japan. Ryan made a list sometime ago about where to find Japanese online shops. Avoid ebay like a plague for the (no pun intended) Italian and Datsun brothers.

I bought a couple of ko cassettes just to stick in soundwave and soundblaster chest yet still have all the real ones out in robot mode.... I will never buy a ko again though as it sours the market.

Try pm to Ryan. Or the site's search engine.Kind of sleepy to search. Use Keywords like Online Japanese shops. It's sure to come out. Good luck!
