These are legit (licenesed by Hasbro) but are the 1990's Chinese reissues. Some of these were in fact realesed in Oz during the Gold Box era too.
Edit: Just went back to last page, question answered :)

Early 90s saw about 20 different early Gen1 Transformers showing up here in their original packaging, just before gold packaged Gen1 and the recoloured Gen2. Since they were released here by Hasbro, it would mean they were legit, but it was never explained why they were reissued like that just as the UK were about to get gold packaging and the US were to get Gen2 versions.Quote:

The 1994 date in that link is wrong though, as I got several of the Gen1 boxed figures in mid 1992, and then the gold-packed ones at the end of 1992... and my first Gen2 toy in 1993.
APS-02, MP sideswipe/tigertrack and dotm leader bumblebee.

Quite a few of these floating in the market with new sellers as they have zero rating. I am very cautious after my last experience even from a rating of 200 stars.
Be careful
