    Default Universe Classic SE help

    Hi guys. I purchased the 4 special edition Universe Classics at the end of last year from eBay and now I am worried they may be fakes. I collect TF's Mint factory sealed so I'd be very annoyed if these turned out to be fake. Is there any way to tell? They seem real but a friend was telling me he saw fakes only at www.ioffer.com that looked real

    That sucks to hear dude, I honestly had no idea that fakes even existed - I was lucky enough to buy the 2 that I own from a Brick 'n' Mortar when they were originally released.
    What exactly is giving you the impression that they're KOs though?
    (I.e. Plastic Quality, Paint Applications, Box/Packaging Issues?)

    Well they seem perfect but the KO's are such good quality rip offs these days. I was checking out the dinobot KOs and they are perfect. So I wondered if there was a way to know if you've got a fake or a genuine one

    Hmm... I'm afraid I'll be of little help, seeming as this is the first I've heard of KOs of the SE Deluxe Classics figures.
    Try having a flick through this part of the forum, there may be a link or website that could aid you in finding out, I'm sorry I can't be of more help dude.

    I really don't think these have been KO'd.

    The only one (I think?) of the four molds that have been KO'd is the Mirage/Drag Strip/Fracture one.

    More info regarding KO Mirage/Drag Strip/Fracture mold.

    And also have a look here and here for mold comparisons.
