I found a seller on ebay selling human alliance Jazz figures in their box for $36. The last time I went looking for human alliance Jazz the best price I could find was low hundreds. Is there a knockoff Human alliance Jazz or is this the real deal?

the listing says it is real (even mentions to look out for knock offs) but I just wanted to be sure

best,

Just looked at the ebay auction I thought it was a local seller. HA Jazz was found in large numbers on clearance at Toyworlds across Australia in late 2011 and they were $40.

So it's not impossible that some of the surplus was also around overseas.

Looks alright to me, but he also has this: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Transformers-Prime-Weaponizer-BUMBLEBEE-Action-Figure-Robots-in-Disguise-for-kid-/300922750800?pt=AU_Action_Figures&hash=item461064c750&_uhb=1

Never know, he has a mix of stuff.

hmm seller is from China so he would most likely have both original and dubious stuff and that is the risk......:(

I've previously purchased this (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Transformers-Generations-Voyager-Protectobot-Hot-spot-GDO-Fall-of-Cybertron-/271239222666?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item3f271e158a) from a differnt seller at about the same price, I am positive it was legit.

I know someone else from here has also purchased a powerdive (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/New-Transformers-Generations-Powerdive-Megatron-Protectobot-Hot-Spot-GDO-Voyager-/300892049839?pt=AU_Action_Figures&hash=item460e9051af)repaint and they were pretty sure it was legit. don't know from which seller.

I think there must have been some surplus show up somewhere over there as there are several sellers with quite a few voyagers for around $20 shipped.

It is a bit of a gamble but the non-legit stuff he has is pretty easy to spot. Just be prepared for a dinged up box, my hot spot was shipped in what was essentially a brown paper bag. the box was fairly buggered but the toy was fine.
