I could be wrong...but I doubt it.
I was assuming that Mabuchi doesn't necessarily stamp their name on motors they manufacture for re-branders. I could be wrong.

Mabuchi is the world's number one manufacturer of small motors. So if it looks like a duck and walks like a duck... unless you factor in that they probably wouldn't retain their dominant market leadership for very long cranking out junk. That's why I asked if your doubts were based on Mabuchi's reputation.
