    They can't be the same...because one version's wheels are 4 times more expensive than the other one... and math never lies. :D

    Seems like the height of the trailer is slightly higher than MP10's as well !!!
    That's the biggest shock for me !!

    This is a comparison with a $400 official figure and a downsized ko. The wheels are nearly identical.

    Yes, how funny would it be if MP44 used the same casting as a downsized knockoff.

    Mp44's wheels are the same size as the voyager version? That's weird.

    hmm, that is strange if the MP44 has the same wheels as a downsized KO version.

    Just thinking out loud here, but maybe the factory that Takara used is also the one that produced the KO MP10V?

    Also, how come the new tires are smaller than the regular MP-10 for MP-44?
