    That's legit, or at least, it isn't a KO in today's "amateur" sense - see here.

    The doors on mine are clear plastic, with the door part painted silver.
    In the picture, yours looks devoid of any paint.

    The doors and the car roof on the Universe Prowl mold were all made with translucent plastic, and painted over.

    This meant paint apps were wasted on having to paint those parts, and also to the infamous problem with the paint not sticking on the first batch of Prowls.

    Yours is simply missing the paint apps for the doors.

    Factory error.

    ^^Factory error... could be worth something in the future.


    Was checking out Takatoku Tulcas and looking at the stamps. I guess they say takatoku, theyre in japanese.. so checking out whirl and roadbuster (and i guess jetfire) why are they stamped bandai. not takara or hasbro or takatoku.
    Did Bandai own the right to them for a while ?
    Probably a stupid question but if South Park has taught me anything it is, that there are no stupid questions..

    By the time Hasbro had secured the molds for Transformers they ware owned by BANDAI, Takatoku having basically gone bust.
    Which brings us to where we are today...
