Transformers Monopoly Board Game

I got Wickster to pick it up for me, not sure where he got it from though.
I don't think he knew it was a knockoff either.
He'd most likely find me a real one and just give it to me, I've known him for quite a number of years.

Yeah, I've seen him sell KO stuff before but he wasn't aware of it - usually when you tell him he's apologetic and is happy to compensate you. He's not a TF collector so it would be an honest mistake - the KO Monopoly box looks real from the outside. The only thing that tipped me off about them being KOs was their ridiculously cheap prices. Otherwise even I would have been fooled - and yeah, the stuff that gives it away are all packed on the inside so you wouldn't know until you opened it anyway.

Perhaps you'd like to take photos of your KO TF Monopoly set and post them - I'll take photos of my set and then we can make comparisons. It would help to confirm your set as a KO or not and also as a future reference for other people in case they pick that set up. We might take some measurements and see if everything is the same size too.

I saw the various KO Monopoly boards going for $10-$25, and that was enough of a tip off for me (plus the fact that there were a good 15 of each board...)
No surprises that Ben10 and Halloween Simpsons were the most expensive.

Yea I didnt even think of that, I dont think he did either. I know he will give me a refund/exchange, he always has helped me out, thats why I help him out at some fairs, I will be next one again.

I'll take some photos this weekend, cant do it tonight coz I've got a concert to go to right after work. I'll probably do em on friday sometime and post them.
