    Default KO TF2 Sideswipe - how to spot them.

    I can't believe how close this is to the real thing, including the packaging. With mould degradation and QC, the KO could easily pass as the real thing to any collector.

    Actually, looking over that website's forum on KOs, it is rather distressing to see just how many TFs have been KOed.

    Considering Hasbro's actual toys nowadays have such poor QC, they might as well be bootlegs to begin with. The Kos most likely rolled off the same factory line in China...
