do you have hints to see the difference between a chinese fake version and the true Wonder woman or other DC classics action figure? (a part from maybe the bad plastic)

(Excuse my poor english)

Pretty much bet if it's coming from Hong Kong it's a fake Wonder Woman. The seller that I bought mine from is mybjd he has several others listed. I emailed him about it and offered a half refund, which is better than the hassle to send the item back.

On the fake the paint isn't as crisp and a bit sloppy in some areas. She is missing the blue highlights in her hair, the stars on her trunks are smudged, and the flesh tone paint doesn't cover some of the limbs completely either. The sculpt is not a sharp as the original one, you can see extra mold flashing on the tiara and the jaw line, the belt is also slightly misshaped, and the hands are poorly molded as well on one hand the fingers look like sausages and the other is very thin so thin it looks like the could easily break off.

The funny part is that they kept the ankle pivots like on the original Wave 4 Wonder Woman. When Mattel dropped that point of articulation to supposely to cut cost, but a KO company can afford to keep it on their Knock-offs... LOL
