How similar are the LGB Otto / Toy Train Porters / New Porters ?

Title says most of it.

A chance aquisition of an LGB 22711 (the purple, digital Porter) has set me off on the idea of having a few small locomotives for American themed sessions (and a chance therefore to have brightly coloured reefers shunted around).
I did buy a Rusty a while ago with a view to making it into a Krauss using the Heyn kit to keep up with continental theme.
I then saw this post: http://www.gscalecentral.net/tm?m=215553&high=Korea. < Link To http://www.gscalecentral....215553&high=Korea.
The Rusty and Ann I have both have the dreaded "made in korea" on the bottom.
I have also got an Otto (Toy Train Set - made in Germany - LGB 92176).
Comparing all three of them visually (I've no desire to unscrew them at the moment), then the chassis and valve gear looks identiical.
It also suggests that the square base plate that the cab screws into is the same.
One of the porters has a bit of damage to the rods and the end cylinder is broken/missing.
The implication from comments about plastic quality is that I'd be better trying to get an Otto and put the Anna cab and boiler on the top ?
Were Otto's made in Korea at any time ?

might not be much help but I have two of the korea chassis. Both are old and have done some milage but have never had any issues.
