Big convoy trademark stamp differences?
I just recently got a beast wars neo big convoy from an online auction and would like to know if anybody can tell me the difference in the stamps between the japanese version and the korean or sonokong if i spelt that right.I'm VERY happy with my version whichever it is but am curious to know which version it is.The stamp says:
"copyright logo"1999 T.P.O./Takara
"foreign language"/NAB(please excuse my ignorance as don't know which language it is)
Made In Taiwan.
Thank you for any information.

Re: Big convoy trademark stamp differences?
if its sonokong, 99% it will be made in korea

Just wanted the info as several other forums and sites state the korean or sonokong versions are just as good with possible colour variations but never tell you how to know the difference by what the stamp says and never show any pics of it so you can see for yourself.I was happy with my mammoth regardless of what version it was as got it for a decent price and have wanted it since it first was shown in toyfare magazine wayyyyyyyyyy back when.I figured this was a way for me and possibly others if they were curious to learn the differences in any of the figures.Sorta like G1's made in japan and macau.Huge THANK YOU to everyone for your help

Re: Big convoy trademark stamp differences?
I was always under the impression that the figures were the same, just different packaging.

You are right.After doing some searching other sites DID say they were exactly the same mold even down to the "hot stamping"which i'm unsure of but assume that means the tm logo.So i guess my new question to this or other items similarly like it is how do you know which version you have be it takara or sonokong if the figure is sold loose?On another forum some member mentioned that he had a hard time telling his two figures apart but failed to mention that one thing he references that's a dead giveaway.Any ideas as to what this could be on any figure?
