Is this a KT solid or am I missing something?

This one doesn't look like a GID, so it should be a solid white.
It cost that much just because it doesn't have a tiny hole around the neck ? :shock:

I hope not for their sake.

The seller also had the unpainted white head, so I suppose it's possible that he had both of them. Of course this one could just as easily be the Solid release.

I dont know of any difference between the two other than where they put the little tag on them for the Solid releases.

you cant see the hole where the tag goes on the SOLID evil, at least not on mine.
I imagine there is a color difference between the older white release and the newer one. This looks a little less shiny than the solid release.

So you can't even see where the tag was at? I'm sure a lot of the original owners of the unpainted white evils are happy about that. I was under the impression that it was noticable.

Also, the pictures in the auction are terrible. It would be hard to tell if it was an original versus the Solid one unless they were both in the same picture.

If you pop off/pull up the head you should be able to see the tiny hole in the base neck thats usually covered by the head.

Both were lucky bag items.

maxaltoman resides in Japan if I remember correctly. I think he would have cleared things up with the seller before bidding that much on the white unpainted evil. If it's real, he's a got a great deal.

I assumed these were the real(x)deal given that the seller had both the Head and Evil. The auction didn't really say other than that they are "limited unpainted" versions.

Post Re: Did somebody get taken?
Still kinda perplexed why anyone would bother paying anything over retail for the 'Solid' version just for the same dude without a hole in the neck . . . I guess I'm a lightweight in RxH terms! :?

I think white-white in the right light.
