    Default Has Cerebros been KO's

    I'm looking to get a Cerebros, but I don't want a KO. I've googled around for a guide as to whether one exists and how to identify it, but haven't come across such a guide. Does anyone have any insight?

    I'm pretty sure it has with the 10 pack KO Headmaster set - the one with the exclusive JP Headmasters (eg. Shuffler, Kirk, etc).
    They do not have a Takara/Hasbro stamp on them.

    Thank you, but that's Spike. I'm only interested in Cerebros.

    Yes, there are plenty of Cerebros knockoffs out there. (Other than the weird-coloured ones) often the stickers are a clear giveaway, but someone could put repro stickers on one and it would look similar to the original.

    That said, 99% of Cerebros knockoffs are the wrong scale or clearly knockoffs, so generally you should be safe - there aren't many that could be confused for the real thing.

    Yep, I've seen some KO Fort Maxes while I've been in China. Grossly out of scale (like the size of a Deluxe!) -- so it's impossible to confuse them for the real deal. Didn't know there were 1:1 scale KOs though... that sucks.
