    Default Spotted: KO Fansproject Thundershred

    Hi all, many of you no doubt know about the existence of KO versions for this and other Fansproject "Insecticons".

    Just in case for those of you who don't know, this:
    http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Transform...item1c28930e78

    and other Fansproject items from the same seller are KOs.

    The bottom right hand logo on the item's box being blue is one of the giveaways.

    You can find out more about the other points of difference here:

    You've gotta be kidding. Some people really go to some lengths to KO even 3rd party items.

    A lot of 3rd party stuff is having more demand than what Hasbro is offering so this doesn't surprise me. A KOer will counterfeit whatever they deem as profitable.

    Very interesting that they chose the FP Insecticons to KO.

    Must be the only mold they could get their hands on? The FP Insecticons aren't doing spectacular on the secondary market. Not much of a price difference as well - 1/3 off the real deal, as opposed to the 2/3 off City Commander KO.

    I too find it puzzling in the price difference. It's not like there's a massive discount with the KO version.
