KOs of the Micromasters have been around since the 90s, just it's the first time we see an attempt of "picture perfect" ones. They are small and simple for the bootlegers to do.

Impressive quality, I'd be hard pressed to tell the difference.

yeah the Constructicon KO's are really well done, only thing to identify them is the missing Asst# in the bottom right corner of the cards.

and the post has been updated, the MM sets are liget, left overs from the warehouse find awhile back.

I only have the dollarramma multi color'ed Dev set. But then my reason for buying KO's differs, as i plan still to repaint them into G1 colors but also improve the paint at that time. Like when i bought a KO shadow commander set. I knew it was a KO, but for a custom, i just couldn't spend 80-120 bucks just to repaint/modify it.

I spend the money for the originals, I buy KO's for making customs :D
