More KO’s to be careful of: G1 Scourge, Cyclonus, and Reflector. TFieds.com has pictures of the figures. These KO’s are getting harder to tell from the real deal. If you want to learn more about the difference between legit and fakes – check out HighendTFS.com, which has information about Cyclonus and Scourge.

Might be nice to see the pics. But I recall it being announced that those very same figures were up for re-issue. So are they official or KOs or are we getting both? :-?

It's not a knockoff, it's Shattered Glass Scourge!

For those who are getting a forbidden message, if you copy and paste the link into the address bar it should work.

Oh, and Cyclonus has a high quality label app.... :roll:

No, these were not announced for re-issue. The 're-make' used by the seller is his code word for KO, so he can still sell them.

I was not able to fix the links. So, just follow the general link.

I've all but stopped collecting G1. Sold off almost all of my collection. Too many KO's now, and they're bricks. I've only kept Optimus Prime, Blurr, Gears, the 5 Dinobots, and Ultra Magnus.

Plus with Classics/Universe, I don't mind foregoing G1.

Did the same thing and kept only a few. For more reasons than noted above though as insurance was killing me. I will continue with the Encore reissues though to get my G1 fix.

beware indeed.

I have the Reflector ko, and it really is amazing. The mailer box is done very well, and the figures are of excellent quality. Be really careful when looking for a reflector, I can't really find any KO qualities on mine
