Knock off Horri-Bull?

Postby RacerGuy » Fri Dec 12, 2008 1:20 am

Hi all,

I purchased a supposedly G1 Horri-Bull with box and bubble. I am wondering if I got a knock-off or a reissue. :sad:

The toy is stamped "made in Thailand".

Box copyright says "Made and printed in Thailand by Takara Co."

You most likely have Bullhorn which is the Japanese version of Horri-bull. The toys are identical, they simply have different names.

It's best to assume every link I post is NSFW, and every post I make is just me taking the piss.

I'd say the same thing, as Takara is the Japanese distributor of Transformers (and the owner the brand for that matter). Plus, before China, the toys were produced in Thailand and Macau.

Any chance we can see pics?
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:
