The pix for Springer are Seib's. I know that Seib's want's to know when his pix are used on eBay, but what about iOffer?

Further reasons why I don't collect G1

Same. Even if I did want to, I'd be discouraged by these unnervingly accurate mimics. Seriously, the liiiitle details one has to stare at to detect a G1 KO...

I'd take a blue Sideswipe and a pink Red Alert...but I never get what I want, so no money from me.

Not interested in the other 2, even with a different color scheme.

Hold on dont be so hasty, save the molds and kidnap the guy who made the molds then sell them to hasbro so they can make em. Then you can blow up the place.

Id like to see the real product, Springer is one of the TFs that i want but can never seem to get.

I just collect them loose, for two reasons:

1. Being able to inspect the toy thoroughly, mainly its condition and authenticy.
2. Not feeling guilty over opening a MISB specimen

another way to avoid knockoffs is to buy them all in misb.
i found this old 80s store were i live and they have all the old '86 transformers on card and look brand new. =P~

At this rate most of G1 will be KO'ed or Repro'ed.

i have no problem with knock off i own couple knock offs its better than paying couple 100.00 for one combiner when i could pay half or fraction of a price at bbts or ebay to get ko combinor my only complaint with my ko combiors are the joints are very tight.

the wing was extreamly tight on one of superion jets te black i dont know the names i didnt reinforce the wing on the top & the bottom to make move and the wing snapped off but everything else other than that i am pleased with some kos
