ID questions

How do I tell the difference between the KO Fore Valk and the real thing? I have a source for a Fire Valkyrie that is diecast and plastic parts. Also where is the Bandai stamp on them? Thanks for any help ahead of time as I'm new to the forums.

Fire Valkyrie

Check that link out, it has pictures of the boxes and a brief write-up on ways of telling the original from a knock-off. There might be more encompassing info elsewhere but that should help you out in a pinch.

Bandai's had their logo on the bottom right of the box I believe,

the knockoffs have some cartoon characters face.

Thanks a bunch for the quick responses. I really appreciate it. I've been surfing this site for two years before realizing there's a forum here so.

The bot doesn't come in a box. I think it's the first release of the Fire Valk. Do the KO's have metal parts or only plastic? If the ko's are only plastic then it's real. Also where would the bandai stamp be located?
