The only KO MP that I am aware of is Prime. However he is not an exact duplicate due to funky colors and comes in a weird looking box.
It's too different to be tricked into buying it.
Edit: I just googled KO MP Prime and got this:

Although its colors are closer to the one I saw before there are considerable differences such as a chromed face plate and different color hands. The package is also very different obviously.
Yeah, I've just bought myself an MP Grimlock, so just wanting to know what to look out for once it arrives, incase there was such a thing as a KO masterpiece.Quote:

Crap...that's where I bought my Masterpiece Prime from (assuming we're talking about the same clothing shop).Quote:

Well...my Prime looked pretty legit to me...although I only just recently got into the whole masterpiece thing around May this year so I'm not all that familiar yet. Oh well...he'd better be legit, considering what I paid for it... :mad:
You might want to consider taking a photo of yours (toy + packaging if you still have it), and post the pic up using a free picture hosting site such as photobucket so we can all have a look for you.
I was quite surprised myself to discover that there are KO MP's floating around - saw an Optimus one for sale at the markets over the weekend with an asking price of $80! :eek:
Yeah I'll do that tonight I think. I'm PRETTY sure what I have is legit. The packaging I have, compared to the three seekers and umm...the other masterpiece i have, all look identical. But yeah i'll post up tonight.Quote:

The knock off they had was very obviously a cheap unofficial version, in the style of those combiners you can get from other (mainly) asian junk shops. The faded masterpiece was the hasbro dvd version and was loose and on display. If it's in the masterpiece box then I'm pretty sure it would be legit... however I shudder to think how high the price could have been... suppose it depends when you purchased it?Quote:
