I think the fellas are wanting you to get the Muteki SR48s. Not sure though.

Here's a thread (that actually links another forums thread) on how to tell the difference.

I havent seen anything about it

Yes, thanks for clarifying Bob. I've tried all over and haven't found any solid picture evidence like they have for Project Kics. Maybe I just go with Kics to be safe...

You wont find it because no one is making Muteki replicas. They aren't exclusive enough like projec kics to warrant a company making reps.


Authentic project kics go for over $250. Mutekis go for $50, don't see why anyone would want to make a replica.

Keep in mind that the Mutekii neo chromes have a gold/yellow color with the neo chrome finish on top.

While the Project Kics are silver/gray with the neo chrome finish on top.

Let us know what you decide to get
