Good Reproductions

KCC Reproductions - All KCC Reproduction have mold numbers like those above, but only #9 for long missiles and #4 & 9 on the short bombs.

I'll try and get photo soon.

Other Reproductions

After talking to Fred, I believe these were made in Mexico.

How to spot the Mexican issue.

Suspect A

This "Skywarp" long missile has several features that make me suspect it is NOT a genuine G1 Hasbro Part. First, it has no mold number, and there are 2 physical differences. In this photo , the interior of the side hole of Suspect A is not sharp as the genuine G1 in this photo - ., also the shoulder near the missile catch is not as rounded as a G1 . In this next photo, look at the two side by side. - The G1 Missile is on the left.

Suspect B

This "Skywarp" short missile has several features that make me suspect it is NOT a genuine G1 Hasbro Part. First, it has no mold number, and there are 2 physical differences. Again, the shoulders are different the same as the Suspect A cause be to believe these to were made in the same place - in the previous photo the G1 missile is in the left. Also, there is a fill hole in the shaft of B not present on the real G1. Here is a photo of both Short Missiles together. The G1 is on top.
