    Thanks for this. I copied the original pic from the HK-TF Facebook page (which was alot clearer) but, for some reason it didn't translate well here on the boards.

    I agree. Is there anyone out there who can translate the text to English?

    Edit: In the last 4 images of Scourge and Hot Rod, IMO the KO is on the left.

    Sorry my bad. An I agree. If they're going to KO these figures, might as well make them Voyager sized.

    It's rather dumb to make KOs of the Titans Return Deluxes. It's not like they're rare or particularly valuable. The official versions can be had for very cheap prices.

    I can barely see what's the difference and why are we already getting KO's of product that has been out for half a year?

    The official product already feel like KO's as is, so i'm impressed someone was able to tell the difference.

    I'm waiting for a voyager sized KO of Blurr so he can hang out with the MP.

    I strongly disagree. The originals are pretty solid.

    I bought a loose Scourge and then a hasbro official boxed Scourge, the loose one turned out better than the boxed one.

    I doubt the loose ones are KOs.

    Nowadays QC seems to be slacking off, you need luck to get a good figure, regardless of loose or boxed.

    Agreed. I bought a loose Legends Skullcruncher from China on eBay.

    I inspected it with fine toothed comb (I'm a QA Inspector in my career) and it absolutely was not a KO.

    Must be my poor eyesight as I'm sure these are showing some glaring difference but I can't spot it. Wouldn't it be a bit early for Wave 3 to have been KOed already?

    If these are what I think they are, they are the "bulk" product that are sold on Taobao. They are not KOs they are pre-releases and QC rejections. I have gotten a bunch of these over the years, I get them before the carded releases are found. If these are something different then I don't know, but if they are bulk samples, they are legit figures, not KOs

    Yeah I kinda find it hard to believe that they KOed several molds at the same time of pretty recently released figures.
