I would happily pay loads more for a legit reissue (they can't do it now though) if they were made, but Hastak (mostly Has) are making KOs O the more tempting, for those who can't get a toy in the form of a reissue and not pay ridiculous prices.
I see no problem in purchasing the KO as long as you don't pass it off as legit; I did and it's great. Until there is an official reissue, which there probably never will be, it's an acceptable substitute. To put it in realistic terms, the KO is an near-exact replica of the original toy that was made nearly 30 years ago. Until Hasbro lay claim to the toy design and come out with their own reissue, I say 'get over it people'. That's my 2 cents for what it's worth.
