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.

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
