UserID: 83 | Wilton Bradley is a rip-off of Milton Bradley, a famous toy company. Yes, these are clones, but I must say, the XP 310 clone looks darn real!

UserID: 56 | The 310 clone looks nothing like the real one. Wrong colours, a different pump, and it's shape give it away.

UserID: 1 | http://www.supercoolstuff.com/items/misc/wt914.htm ^ This post inspired me to check out Froogle once more, and the elusive CPS 1000 clone has made it again! This appears again to be the good one. I think I might order one. It even is 24 inches long, iSoaker.com reports that a CPS 1000 is a bit less than 23 inches long. Manufacturers tend to exagerate a bit.

UserID: 47 | For only 10 dollars, it would be awesome if it was real. It looks like the actual good clone too.

UserID: 131 | The 310 fake is well done. The MX is not as good. And that 1000 fake is amazing. If you hadn't of said it was fake I would of figured it to be the real deal! Edit:typo

UserID: 77 | According to Cloud, if I remember correctly, that CPS 1000 fake isn't up to much despite its use of CPS technology. <_<

UserID: 90 | Hold on, if this 1000 fake uses CPS tech how come no one has tried to mod it. I'm sure that even a bad CPS would outmatch what's currently one the market (excluding homemades). |

Odd, the XP 310 looks like it is using the CPS 1500 color palet. Except for the Mini-Monster (nickname, do not criticize) there, the XP 310 was pretty well done for a fake. For the CPS 1000? I cannot really tell. | |

UserID: 272 | I couldn't tell the cps 1000 was fake. What mistakes are there in it that give it away?

UserID: 219 | It looks very real. The handle even has ridges on. If anyone buys one, tell me if it is real, I want more!
