Vintage collectors beware, there is a new Generation 1 unauthorized reproduction on the market. Sunstreaker is the latest Generation 1 character to be knocked off. They are intended to hit the market within the first week of November.

Fortunately, there are some fairly easy to spot clues on the in box sample that will tell you if you are looking at a vintage piece or this knock off. Several factory applied black stickers are missing, including the black "skirt" detail and the black "triangle" detail on the side of the car, which are visible from the front of the box. The black triangle on the car's roof is also missing, although it is a lot harder to spot this on boxed samples, due to the way Sunstreaker is packaged.
