I think the guy with the photo's is just plain wrong. It's just older versions and items split from combo's like the Mamba. Take a look at images for older motors. 2009 here or here, old box design, motor printing upside down and the fonts different to current version, no temp rating on cables, bulked wire tunnel. Take a look at official US Castle dealer http://www.amain.com/, all images are of the so called 'fake' design. Look at the comma position in the 60 , 000 on the new ones.
I have a 2200kv 1515 from the HK seller and it's genuine. Printing is correct, correct cables, smaller wire support etc. All as it should be. In fact just checked and it's identical to a 1717 special from a Traxxas X0-1, that can't be a fake. Dude's got paranoia issues.
