    Hi there guys. Is there a definitive way of telling a vinatge bumblebee MOSC with one of the newer KO's? Does the bubble on the vintage touch the bottom of the card? or does it sit just within the grid?

    Thanks

    I'm assuming the packaging would differ in the same way as the other Minibot KOs; the key tell is the hanging hook. Because the figures are positioned to the right of the card, the hook/hole was also at the right, so that they'd hang straight on the peg. The generally known bootlegs have the holes centred on the card, which would cause the figure to hang at an angle.
