Thank you chris_j for clearing that up, I did not word my post very clearly.

Gorneesh, you worded it just fine, to me anyway. You asked a simple question and I answered for you. Ill look and see if I can find that thread on the Transformers to post here. I think it was last year or 2009 when that was brought up. But there was something else about fake stickers, but cant remember what it was about.

I hope you can get a refund on this or have AFA re encase him for you with the correct weapon. It's worth contacting them about to see what they say.

I'm not sure how many SW collectors realize how bad the Transformer issue is. We're not just talking replica packaging, but the entire figures, accessories, paperwork, etc.

Here's one site that shows how to spot them and some background info.

When AFA graded a few of them, it was back when these were first coming to market and not much was known about them. I'd hope that now, one wouldn't slip by, but any TF collector should certainly collect with caution when it comes to MIB Transformers.

I can accept human errors occur BUT I would also expect AFA or any other company that makes a mistake to rectify it at NO cost to the customer. ie pay for postage both ways.

Sorry mike, to hear about the weapon and thanks for the warning.

I have never bought AFA and after this I will never buy AFA
