An obvious KO, as it's Diaclone colors in a Transformer box, and at least for this auction (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/705-53470-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=2&pub=5574719522&toolid=10001&campid=5336433113&customid=&icep_item=180587379641&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229515&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg), it's referred to as a "reissue" and not being pawned off as a Diaclone original. As the Diaclone colors were more cartoon accurate, this one is a fan favorite. The reviews also seem to imply that again, the build quality is excellent. I expect this to go around over $250.

I've seen these before. There is one website selling them for US$74.99. I can't imagine that it would go as high as $250 but you never know. Oversized Soundwave went for about $150 when he only costs $20 :rolleyes:

it would be really ironic if we have to educate people on how not to get ripped off when intentionally buying KO's...LOL

Yep!

That's very true although if they're accessing the interweb which they obviously are, take two seconds and do some research. If people don't, they can expect to be ripped off and probably deserve it.
