    Seems the same to me other than that TT sticker pasted on it.

    There haven't been much if any differences between the Takara last knight toys and the Hasbro last knight toys id just get Hasbro if I were you.

    What TFXProtector said. He was legitimately released by Hasbro Asia (aka Hasbro Far East) so you should be good using a trusted seller. I just got mine today from an eBay seller in Taiwan for $25 total with shipping (on sale using the eBay coupon from a couple weeks ago.) It looks totally legit. The only difference is that they slapped an extra sticker on the back of the packaging with Hasbro Far East's (aka Hasbro Asia) contact info on it. (If it somehow is a KO then they went above and beyond to fake it, complete with the packaging code stamp on the box.)

    It really is a shame Hasbro screwed up this line's release so badly that so many people will miss him entirely. He is a fantastic figure with some excellent paint details on the robot mode and Titan Master. (He even has painted rims in vehicle mode.)

    Odd, I was able to get my Cogman at German retail without a problem and still see him occasionally...

    There was one sighting of him in Washinton at a TRU last year and that was it. He hasnt been sighted since.

    Decided to pick one up today finally, using the eBay coupon. Came out to a little over retail so I can stomach that and not have to worry about hunting around (I wasn't going out of my way or anything but just no need to worry if it never shows up). This is the only TLK figure I decided to get.

    I was thinking it might of been a one off,cause again he hasnt been sighted since,so maybe he was shipped in a wave 2 shipment by accident. Im goinga see about getting him from one of my collector places this weekend,Im tired of waiting for him.

    Used some Amazon gift cards to get the Hasbro version ($30). Better than not having him at all...
