TrackMaster Bert & Arry Chinese knockoffs

[Super]

Thinking about it...I believe that the term 'Knockoff' really doesn't fit for these Chinese copies as they are pretty much exact down to the plastic, the motors the look, feel and the packaging. They are not like cheaply made knockoff toys that are different, use cheap plastic, cheap motors and flimsy construction. I have both Bert and Arry and also Hank and although I knew when I bought them from China that they weren't authentic, to most anyone they would be very hard to tell a difference between whats real and whats not.

Muddy...I now will look at every Bert and Arry I see in the auctions just to see if they are the copies or real because of your discovery.
