One that will be hard for collectors to turn down that I have just seen and been given proof that he is coming is the blue bodied, version of Bluestreak, available to so very few collectors because while G1 boxart showed the blue body, the only release in blue was a Diaclone (Pre-Transformers) version.
Much like the red G1 style- Mirage (hard to find Diaclone version), this toy will probably garner both a lot of love and a lot of hate due to its original scarcity, and now people wanting to own an original will have to be even more on guard to make sure they are not ordering/purchasing a KO. When more is known, hopefully we can help collectors to avoid the KO version, if it is a real version that they seek.
You can read more about Pre-Transformers releases here, and of course, go to page 1 of this thread to see the list of G1 era toys that have been 'remade' or unofficially knocked off. If it is MISB it should be easy, because it will be in a G1 Bluestreak box, and according to sources, versions like that do not exist. Out of package and loose it may be a whole new ball game though.
