I doubt they are a fan.
A fan would know that they aren't worth anywhere near that. Probably $1,000 at the most and that would be in better condition than these two (one has robot points cut out of the box that you can barely see in the photos, while the other one has very sun-damaged packaging it isn't worth keeping)... but realistically these toys in that condition would be lucky to go for US$600-800 at auction (which the current exchange rate pushes it up to almost AU$1000).
I hate it when non-collectors come across something they work out is rare, without actually knowing how that translates to actual value.
:mad:
Rare does not always equal valuable. :rolleyes:
Looking at their other items, I find it deplorable that they are trying to sell the KO Dia Atlas toy (noted on the box as C-888) for AU$1,500. They note that it is a "copy reissue", but the real version isn't even worth that, even in better condition than this fake. :mad:
Couldn't agree more with you on that one. This seller has been putting up some very rare items in the last three months or so (nothing I have seen has sold) They have extremely ridiculous prices, poor photos and f-all description. Not the best way to sell high end TransformersQuote:

He's dangling a carrot in front of collectors hoping someone caves and over pays with an offer. :mad:
This collection has been featured in Maz's collector series of interviews at TFSource.Quote:

A $5,500 best offer! That's only $2,000 off his asking price so I guess their is some room for negotiation :pQuote:

The South Korean versions of the Japanese Transformers are identical to the Japanese ones, and even made in the same factories... they just had different packaging.
edit - apparently these have been out for a while now, so there must have been a lot of stock to still be selling it after all this time for so cheap.
Yeah, I've got the Korean Lio Convoy and Big Convoy and the quality is great.
That's a lot of cheap Big Convoys!
This is the same guy that was trying to sell CHUG legends Jazz for $150 and when I contacted him to see if it was a mistake he was a total wanker...Quote:
