just what i was going to say!

in his feedback all the bots are there from last year except ultra magnis , silverblot and the accessory's the accessorys appear to have no wear or sun fade

But that could mean he got them somewhere else not necessarily KO

its late and my partner is asleep so i can't compare it to mine till the morning


Inferno's fist looks strange too

trademe auction 181448778

ok i found it ewillia got silverbolt and the accessory's from tyranus1

and after looking at mine and blowing up the picture in the auction it looks all good

i should have waited till i had a chance to compare b4 i posted a question on his auction

my accessory parts are just as white as his in the auction and well there is a 99.99% chance mine are not fakes as i scored them off mjbunce who sells some top notch stuff :)

well..........


the white parts do look odd.......

but those cheap fake superions from somewhere like the warehouse are undersized..... so it couldnt be from them.....

...but as the detailing looks sub par it could be from the counterfeit superion giftset that does the rounds quietly.....


any superion from the eighties is not likely to be a brilliant white, the plastic is a dull white in the first place, hence their discolouring exageration.

Superion's parts were always an off white, heading towards grey. Were never a brilliant white.

Should be the same colour as Silverbolt's offwhite/grey parts (ie legs, chest)
