Masterpiece MP-12T Tiger track - How many versions are there ?

As the title says, I cant tell which is which and afraid I might "run" into a big bad KO version which I dont want. Here is what I gather so far:

- KO version all over the places on ebay.
- A red color knee version available on BBTS and TFS
- A silver color knee version.

I am trying to see if there are any differences in packaging between the red and silver knee versions (forget about the KO one) but they all seems exact the same from what I gathered from googling.

Can anyone with experience with this MP help out ? Thanks in advance.

The official version of Tigertrack has the red knees.

TFsource & BBTS don't sell KOs without stating so in a product listing, and neither has been selling MP KOs. You should be safe buying Tigertrack from either of them.

Yea, they were intended for that purpose, with distribution to US customers coming from online retailers. That exclusivity is why Tigertrack is somewhat more expensive than the other MP cars (upwards of $90 rather than $80 in the States).

Huh, I didn't notice there were more than one version. I am going to have to pull my Tigertracks out to see if I have the silver or red knee.

Now it's much clearer but yeah the mysterious silver knee version looks much better in bot mode.
