One seller is unloading a lot of Kaws figures and since I have heard there is a lot of fakes out there and wanted to check with you guys before I buy. So how do you spot a fake? Do anyoe know this seller?
Thank you for all help!

How to spot fake Kaws?, by sparkplug on Nov 6, 2012 9:03:46 GMT 1, the bootleg toys are really hard to tell a lot of the time - seen plenty of fake kaws & dunny's and next to impossible to tell at first glance, but normally the colours give them away, the genuine kaws will be true to colour no matter where you get them from, bootleg ones use crappy dyes etc so be slightly off - as an example:
toysrevil.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/about-those-kaws-bootleg-toys.html
also in some cases the plastics are "shiny" they dont have that matt finish - easiest and most obvious that they are fakes.
bootlegs do have their own market demand now on the KR boards, LOADS come from australian sellers

How to spot fake Kaws?, by Happy Shopper on Nov 6, 2012 11:50:47 GMT 1, Some of this is disputed, but take a look:
toysrevil.blogspot.it/2012/04/about-those-kaws-bootleg-toys.html
There's more info, with pictures of the difference in the outer boxes on Kidrobot (Toy Talk - Kaws thread)
forums.kidrobot.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=134385&start=9025
EDIT: Unfortunatley pictures of the boxes are missing now
I would only buy from a known dealer or respected forum member!.... Although that OG ebay listing looks good to me. That it has some wear means you know it's not brand new !!
Better still, buy a Resting Place or Astroboy. If Kaws is still a big name in 10 years, they'll be just as sort after... IMO !
