    Notes
    - The cardboard is a flat finish, it's made of a durable stock, a bit thicker than TRU CS Starscream's.

    - The cab has short pinned front wheels. (first set of rubber past the chrome bumper) The Prime and Ultra Magnus reissues all used a hybrid cab with thick pins ... this bootleg has nearly flush rims.

    - The trailer has bubbles where the sticker was applied over screw holes.

    - The sticker sheet and paperwork are in the front of the box, much like the New Year's Convoy from 2002.

    - Other things like the factory flap crease, figure's position in the window, and back graphic's size have all been covered in the past.

    I hope these KOs start to get out more, so the price drops on them. I just want the black version.

    That's mighty purdy lookin'. I really need to hear a review of the toy itself. If it's built well I might have to get a black one.
