I'm 99% certain that its a ko the colour is off on the shockwave picture its not bluish purple like its suppose to be its more of a reddish purple. I'd steer clear of it

Ya I'd hit the BIN button in a heartbeat but all signs point to KO

I'm pretty certain it is KO as well, it seems like a silver screw in the leg/handle rather than the black one. And the colour of the Shockwave on the box looks like the KO box.

Check here (http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-feedback/239012-ko-shockwave-comparison-review.html) for comparison photos.

1AZRAEL1 is right dude, it does look to have the silver screws, which I only learnt after making the mistake, but yeah, the Legit Shockwave has Black screws and the box art does look too red-ish purple where it should be more blue-ish purple.

IMO it's a KO Rampagesss, so be careful mate, I almost made the same mistake with a British Auction and, come to think of it, the ad seems to be written in a fairly similar way too so I'd be even more skeptical.

Just my two cents - it's 100% a KO.

Is the seller purposely blocking the barrel color with the instructions to hide the KO purple color of it?

Probably not, but it looks like he has a KO cyclonus for sale as well :p

The KO Shockwave comes in two version - one with a 'cartoon accurate' purple barrel and the original grey barrel so don't be fooled if you see one with a grey barrel thinking it's not a KO.

I've fondled a KO Shockwave and the quality is sadly quite good, so very close to an exact replica but the angles on the leg molds are off. I did create a photo comparison but now I can't for the life of me find it.:(
