Knock Off Combining Cassettes confirmed - TFATM - 03-29-2011 09:02 AM
Please use this thread to discuss the Knock Off Combining Cassettes confirmed news story on the main site.
KOToys.com have confirmed that they are producing and will be selling knock-offs of all the combiner Cassettes from Generation One including the highly sort after Dinosaur cassettes. We reported this in the past but not many people believed us but they have now posted the first images of Beastbox and Squawktalk and have confirmed that all of the others are in production. KOToys will be releasing the figures in their original colour scheme, then all black versions, then "crystal colours" (so clear versions of the original colours) and then in "opposite faction colours". They are also interested in the possibility of releasing Noise, Gurafi, Saur and Dial in Generation One Dinobot colour schemes.
This news will be welcomes by large portions of the Transformers community who have long wanted these figures, whilst others will be against these rare figures from being mass produced in the same manner as the Headmaster figures which were created by a group of Western sellers.
For those who want to see images of the original Japanese cassettes you can find them on this site by clicking on their names below.
