Palitoyers - is this a genuine ERG

[theslider]

Saw this on theifBay and was just wondereding about the bubble - is it a tri-logo hi-brid? As I thought the ERG had a custom type bubble?

Looks good to me.

Yes looks like a Trilogo bubble (pretty battered at that)

Yeah looks legit. Those trilogo bubbles often get mistaken for fake but if you were gonna fake an moc you'd probably use a better looking bubble. :lol:
I'm sure someone on here got rid of 2 hybrids he had for next to nothing because he thought they were fake. Can't remember who it was now. Whoever it was i bet he's really glad i bought it up again. :lol:

Yea, course it was. Remember it well. Apologies for bringing it up again Nick but this thread just reminded me of it, and funnily, reading through that thread i noticed an uncanny similarity to the one twistedmetal posted a month or so ago about a Palitoy Snowtrooper he believed was fake. Some of Nick responses to Joe (at first) are all most word for word replicas of TMs responses in his thread. (take from that what you will)

Put it this way, i'd have been happy to buy it off him. :wink:
