Interesting, rare and sometimes cheap ebay items.

no f**king way.
I'm angry at the seller.

Mmm he listed them as KO's though, so I guess it's somewhat ok. His asking price I can't agree with however.

I'm sure many of us are trying to avoid these high quality G1 replicas like a plague, but even the most vigilant and sharp eyed collector should be worried when looking at those auction photos..particularly when they're loose complete out of the boxes...

I'm just very worried for the unsuspecting new collector. What if he/she buys a piece thinking its authentic G1 and its not but not knowing. Then he/she would think, 'hey, this is pretty crap quality. G1's not so great after all.' That would be a real pity and an injustice to G1.

Scary isn't it?

Scary?, F n A it is!

I can understand, as I'm sure we all can, Heroic's sentiment.
That is just appalling and actually makes me feel a little sick, how is this allowed to take place? isn't eBay supposed to Not allow these sorts of Auctions?
I suppose it gets away with it for the fact that it states they're fake?

Hmm...

Impressive and disturbing all at the same time...

Nothing about it is impressive. Sadly I could obtain everything there faster and easier than I could the actual genuine articles.

We should all show our, encouragement, to this seller, by clicking on making an offer. Oh look, you can even add a 'note' to your $1 bid

I was going to chime in and say that some of them could be the Chinese made Transformers from the 90s, but then noticed that they're all in US packaging. What really annoys me is when sellers say "Re-Issue/K/O" implying they MIGHT be official Hasbro/TakaraTomy product but containing enough double talk to cover their asses.

That's a good picture as it shows many of the KOs in one shot. It's a very good reference pic for warning people about them.
