Interesting, rare and sometimes cheap ebay items.

[Firestorm]

not sure if this counts as interesting or rare but this seler is listing a genertaions deluxe trailcutter (for a hefty-ish price) if anyone doesn't feel like waiting to import them or buy them locally *if by some miracle that wave finds its way here) or if you want to look at some pictures of it http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Transform...item35c8468e1d

You mean the bubble?

I've just messaged the seller with your link. see what happens now.

he replied and said

" Thanks so much for letting me know! It was a gift and I was made to believe it was G1 ... I've ended the auction.

Cheers"

interesting response, doesn't quite match the origins detailed in the listing. but he has ended the auction. be interesting if he relists any time in the future.

Considering the other items he had, and the amount of detail he put into each auctions details, he should have known... and probably did.
I reported the auction, so I wonder if he ended it or ebay did.

They have a lot of nice yummy-looking, minty-fresh Gen1 toys listed.
A bit pricey, but most come with all their bits and packaging.


I was just looking on Ebay US to see what combiners like Superion go for these days, and the people selling the KO boxsets don't even hint at them being fakes. I was surprised to see so many boxsets listed, but at least you can tell the boxes apart... if you are buying a loose set off ebay, it might be rather difficult.
(I'm looking at getting a second set of each of the early Gen1 combiners, to have displayed in both combined and non-combined forms... but it certainly sucks having such a minefield out there of KOs)

I'm thankful to read that, I was looking into getting some Gen1 Combiners, I probably would of ended up with a KO.

many years ago, I bought a devastator, it was about 20% smaller than the original when I recieved it. but at the time, (circa 2006) I had no idea there were even KO's of original transformers. for nearly $100 it was pretty dissapointing, but at the same time I was happy with it, because I just wanted to have A devastator.

Shame we have to shuffle through so much junk, just to find a real product sometimes. I use to have some KO Headmasters, but I was younger and didn't care back then. I have a movie Sentinel Prime at the moment, that I can't tell if it's a KO or not. I try my best when buying, to buy from someone I know or from a retail store now
