This guy is offering both Starscream and Thrust at very reasonable starting bids. Somehow the stickers on the jets have been applied, yet both boxes are sealed. Starscream is not even facing the right way in the box. These must be factory errors which explains the high starting bids for these two "never opened" items.

could be a knock off.. my guess is the pre-applied stickers and the box as noted here:

Then again I could be wrong

$500 for Starscream and $650 for Thrust is reasonable? :shock:

I guess you missed the sarcasm in my initial post. Both toys have quite clearly been opened and played with, yet the seller claims that they are both sealed and his starting bids are waaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy higher than the items are actually worth.

There's one element to differetiate KO from orginal. KO has the (R) symbol on the upper of the of the "S" in "Formers", where as the original has "TM".
