KO Decepticon Headmaster Mindwipe

Came across a listing for Decepticon Headmaster Mindwipe (http://www.ebay.com/itm/TRANSFORMERS-G1-DECEPTICON-HEADMASTER-MINDWIPE-MISB-US-SELLER-RARE-/142041184650?hash=item211250798a:g:F6wAAOSwXeJXdRk b), which looked like a sealed toy until you read the listing.

I did a quick search, and found this picture online of a genuine Mindwipe. (https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1273/4705012618_ef5c921b9c_b.jpg) Notice in bottom right corner assortment is 5897 while on the KO the assortment is in a different font, and number 5898.

I don't know if assortments on G1 originals vary, so it might not be the best way to identify the Ko. I remember there was KO Weirdwolf previously, so maybe there are more Headmasters in the wind.

Yep, all three con HM's have been replica KO'd. :mad::mad: I was hoping the KO makers were now just sticking to Masterpiece and third party replicas!
