KOToys.com have posted a couple of images of a recently released fake Generation One Blitzwing figure in reproduction Generation One packaging. The toy, when you look quickly, could easily be mistaken for the original so we encourage you to be on your guard against these fakes so that you know what you are buying.

They are pricing the toy at $30 and its worth having a look over, even if you are not interested in buying out, just so you know what to look out for in case someone tries selling it as an official item.

I was recently informed that many Chinese knock-off makers have now realised that there is good money in making high-quality knock-offs of many of the Classic / Henkei figures and to expect plenty of fakes over the next year to of not only these but other high-end Transformers figures. Well it looks like the weight has already stopped as bot TFW2005.com and KOToys.com have images an information on the first wave of these new KO items, the Million Publishing Henkei Thundercracker and Skywarp along with Electro Disruptor Mirage and the Botcon 2007 clear Mirage. All of the Henkei figures come in replica packaging and are proving difficult to spot.
KOToys.com has all the images, where as TFWorld2005.com note that at the moment the Botcon Mirage appears to be a slightly different shade and comes without the rub sign. You can view the images here, here, here, here and here.
Other new knock-offs (as you may have noticed from that last link) include a blue and white G1 Bumblebee (on card) as well as diecast HFTD Hubcap (in multiple colours). Yes Die cast! The knock-offs are being made from better materials than the originals!
Finally there are also KO die cast Transformers Animated Activator Bumblebee in various colour schemes including Skids and Mudflap from Transformers Revenge of the Fallen.
Genzhao comments that these items weight approximately 2.5 times as much as the originals
Remember ALL of these items are fakes

KOToys.com have posted the first images of their forthcoming exclusive knock-off figures. The images show part of their knock-off Black Convoy figure as well as some images of the first in their Glow-in-the-Dark range of knock-offs, Ultra Magnus. All of the figures will be produced under their KOLD (Knock-Off Lucky Draw) line and are 100% unofficial items made in China. Even if you are not normally interested in knock-off items its worth having a look at the glow-in-the-dark pieces as these could produce some very interesting figures in the future.
