There's a segment of collectors who feel very threatened that these "factory customs" devalue their originals - especially for Starduster and Steel Brigade figures. These are mainly either resellers or other people who collect toys as an investment.
In reality, the existence of Black Major knockoffs has not seemed to negatively affect eBay prices for originals at all. |

I recently spotted on eBay what looked in all the photos to be an original Hasbro Steel Brigade v1A mislabeled in the heading as Black Major. The photos even had a clear view of the Hasbro copyright and date stamp. I hoped this would would slip by collectors' attention and sell for a reasonable price, but apparently enough people caught it anyway. After a bidding frenzy, it went for around $200. If it had been labeled correctly, it probably would have gone even higher.

There's also an all-blue one and an all-red one that aren't shown in this pic for some reason. 9 in all.

If I still collected O-Ring figures, I'd be so broke. His stuff truly does look really nice.
