And has anyone else noticed that he has 100% positive feedback? Has all negative feedback on some sellers through ebay reset itself or something?

"Will do combined shipping for less shipping cost, encourage to buy more!"

I bet.. I'm sure he has access to a truckload of Vintage G1's "new and never play". What a scammer.

Hey Eruntalon,

Dan here, remember me? It's been a while. Anyways, is this guy really that bad? Sure he's pricey and all but jeez...you're crucifying him!

I recall back in the day (02-03) and not too long ago seeing Brave Maxes for 300ish...(sans postage)...You'd have to be nuts!

Basically this is to say hello to all of you collectors, some of whom I may've dealt with before

Dunno mate, I don't collect G1, nor have I ever purchased anything from the guy... just thought it may be of interest to someone out there

Ah crap i was going to place a bid, but now im worried about it. It doesn't look like a KO might just keep an eye on it

rampagesss. That's no knock-off...everything in the pics suggests real. Don't think there's a KO of Brave Max...not lucrative enough for them to KO.

Umm, why not?

Wouldn't it make sense since the mark up on them could be higher seeing as legit ones fetch astronomical prices? :confused:

About Fort Max and Grand Max, you'd be 100% correct, (it's happening now), but Brave Max...not unless there's a good majority of the TF fanbase wanting them. The demand level for Braves are most definetely not as high as Fort or Grand, rather it's seen as a lower cost alternative. I'm not saying you're completely wrong, I'm just saying I doubt they would KO it as this time.

There is no Brave Maximus KO to my knowledge. There are however two versions - Takara's and Sonokong's (who made a licensed version in the Car Robots line as they had a partnership with Takara). These are identical aside from the autobot chest sticker being upside down on the Sonokong release.

And yes, Brave Maximus should sell for less than either Fortress or Grand Maximus as demand is not as high.
