I know this is a year old and you probably have gotten way more figures, but that horror figure set up is so cool.
I own both the black and white and the colored Frankenstein’s Monster neca figures. Real or fake, I don’t care. I think they’re beautiful figures. I hope they put out the Bride of Frankenstein figure soon so I can sit her between both of them.
Something else to keep in mind is that NECA does reissues of a lot of figures, and the detailing from one run to the next can be very different. I bought the T-1000 (in standard cop uniform) years ago, and it's a great looking figure, but the latest run that's in stores right now looks AWFUL to me. Still the exact same sculpt, but the materials and finishing do the likeness no favors, and it ends up looking a lot less like Robert Patrick. Same goes for a lot of figures. I've seen runs of Freddy Krueger where his sweater is completely clean when it should be dirty, as well, and they've reworked the look of the hockey masks on the Part 3 and Part 4 Jason figures. These aren't bootlegs, but will look 'weird,' and possibly suspicious, to collectors who are familiar with earlier runs of the same figures. So while there are definitely a lot of bootlegs out there, a lot of people also misidentify some official figures as bootlegs, because of running changes to the final detailing.
Ah yes, the neca t1000, the latest reissue has a silver painted pistol instead of the black one, which is inaccurate.
The original Pinhead has the trademarks, but it's not under your foot, it's under your rubber belly. You can lift this part and you will see the marks under the rubber, just like Elvira has the mark on her head on the inside of her hair.
I've ended up getting knock off figures from comic cons aswell as eBay and some online stores it's hard to tell sometimes
Who would’ve thought collecting could be such a minefield?!
Big Bad Toy Store is the only online store I trust for figures.
Im thinking about getting a commando john matrix boot , the real ones are really expensive now. The thing is the sellers know this and are overpricing the boot too but its still way cheaper.
I would double check the Pinhead figure. Depending on when you went you may have been looking at the version 2 figure instead of the version 1 which looks more like what you have. They seriously retooled the head on v2. Also pretty sure NECA put the trademark stuff on Pinhead’s tummy.
Over the past 5 years, I've noticed that a lot of real Neca figures don't have the Neca trademark on the feet. It's stamped someplace else on the figure. Also, there are tons of bootleg Neca figures with the Neca trademark stamped on the feet. You can't always say it's real because it says Neca on the feet or someplace else on the figure. Bad paint jobs are a dead giveaway most of the time. For example, the bootleg Leatherface, Chucky, and Pinhead figures have the absolute worst paint jobs that are an instant giveaway.
Oh indeed! The best thing that came out of making this video is learning so much from other collectors, like yourself, who’ve shared their insights, hints and tips related to NECA figures.
I usually just go to amazon for these, but the prices are a little ridiculous
It comes to something when you have to scrutinize closely to determine whether figure is genuine or not. I had a Superman Reeve that I took as being genuine as it looked superb in every way but began to doubt when I realised there were 100s of fakes out there. I ended up selling and the buyer was convinced it was legit. I'm sure it was but still to this day I don't really know!
Completely understand and even since I did the video, I’m still not sure regarding some figures, given other comments about some fakes having the copyright on them. I guess it’s just luck of the draw and keep to reputable websites rather than eBay for NECA. Anyway, thanks for commenting and watching the video, much appreciated 😎
It's funny how NECA has the most bootleg figures out there. I used to buy them a lot until I realized that they had had bootleg issue
As a collector myself, I keep mine sealed in the box with a few exemptions.
The Uk buyer will always struggle with knockoffs.
To check all mine I would have to unbox them which may/or may not reduce the collectability/value down the line.
As you say all you can do is hope your reputable seller is pushing genuine products.
I got most of mine (around 60) from the same suppliers, madabouthorror. HMV. Geeknerd toys. Great Scott collectibles. I probably have around 10 or so from eBay from years back which are open on display but they all have the stamps on the foot. Guess I’ve been lucky.
All the boot legs are doing is forcing up the price of the genuine ones so it’s important not to support the bootlegs, however cheap, even if they do look great.
Nice video and another sub 👍
Thanks for watching and thank you for the sub 😎
I have a massive collection of neca Aliens and Predators, and only one alien is a bootleg out of all of them, and I bought him from a convention, one way you can tell a bootleg Alien is it has outdated articulation and sculpt. Though the bootleg I have is actually better than the real one I have, as the real one had a warped leg, I had to glue the tail back onto the Bootleg though, since then it’s been a great figure.
I found my way here after getting my first true NECA bootleg in the mail today. At T-800...of course from China. Was able to find and identify the right figure after searching but I had no idea this was so rampant. It's hard for me to buy anything else going forward honestly when it comes to NECA...unless it's really reputable dealer wise.
One of the reasons I mainly only buy NECA figures in-store.
Off topic. Just subscribe...I'm curious looking at your Dr who. Did you ever collect any 3 inch figures of David Tennant? Love the marvel retro figures and love getting him to scale with them.
Thanks for the sub 👍🏻 no, I only stuck to the 5.5” original scale DW line.
I'm wondering now about the Hellraiser figure. I just got mine today and it doesn't have writing on his feet either. Are we sure they simply didn't forget to add it on this figure? The pins on it seem the same as the ones in the official Neca figures to me. The box seems legit too...
Nevermind...I just saw someone else's comment about where the mark is. Phew :)
Best to get them the moment there released to the stores. Not eBay , that said some of the knockoffs aren't really that bad as long as they don't screw you on price.
I will have to check my figures but great video thanks for helping us out!
Thanks for watching!
That Bolt Brain figure is awesome.
I have a mixture of both. Obviously I'd rather have the real one every time, but sometimes a deal is too good to pass up. When they're all just lined up on a shelf you can't tell which is real and which is KO. The big difference is that the KO's are typically a lot more fragile and have a lot stiffer joints.
Ive just created an ebay account and bought Wrath of Krang from this one seller.
Of my own stupidity I've bought the figure before looking at reveiws and the reviews seems like such a mix bag... Some people saying they got the legit figures and others saying they got bootlegs... Ive just messaged the seller about possibly getting a refund back. I know the seller created the shipping label but havent sent it to USPS. Hopefully i can get my money back and be safe than sorry.
hey man my retro cloth ghostface figure says enca on the bottom of the foot insted neca. but others who have that figure seem to have the same issue and i’m not aware of any bootlegs of that version can you help me out?
A quick glance at reviews of that figure doesn’t throw up any suggestions that there’s bootlegs of that figure, might be best having a look on YT reviews to see if others mention the copyright as I don’t have that particular figure. Thanks for watching.
I mean... I try to get my figures from official sale spot, but honestly, this video kinda made me lose fear of trying a bootleg if I cant get the real deal. Sometimes its youyr only option and its even cheaper and I was only afraid of them looking too fake but loofing at that Frankie really looks like a normal figure. So again I'm gonna still try to get the real figures but if I can only find a bootleg for sale I guess I rather not have a hole in my collection Lol
Some of the bootlegs are as good as the official product, I would say only my Pinhead figure is inferior so it’s a good option if you can’t get the real thing. Thanks for watching 😎
So i have a NECA Jason from part 7. Seller not from China, high quality pictures, but i don’t see a copyright on the boot. Perhaps I’m not looking hard enough, but the quality is just too good to be a fake. Any thoughts?
Read through the rest of comments, since I filmed the video, others have said that apparently NECA doesn’t always put the copyright on their figures (which just seems ridiculous when you think about it) I would say if you’ve bought from a reputable seller and it looks as good as NECA’s official pics, it’s more than likely a genuine product.
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 Liked and subscribed. Appreciate the quick response back. I just looked at it again, and I can’t find any flaws with it. I have faith it’s legit
@@gboni66 thank you so much for the sub, hope you enjoy the other content on the channel 😎
The whole tm on the foot thing is not a definite factor. I have some that I know for a fact are bootlegs but they have the copyright. Some of the factories are putting out kos after hours using different plastics but the official mold. Seems this isnt as prevalalent in the last year or 2 but be aware, stamp does not make it legit 100% of the time.
Are there knock off mcfarlane figures such as Dc multiverse?
I bought all four of the gotham knights from amazon and only red hood and nightwing have that copyright stamp under there boots both of my zoe kraviz cat women (masked/unmasked) figures don't have the stamp either but im assuming the reason for that is because the figures feet are to small to fit a copyright stamp on them I got them from a local toy store on there online website
I’m not aware of McFarlane having knock off figures.
I bought a Part 7 Jason voorhees from target, however the figure does not have any watermarks under the feet.
No copyright notice or anything? Is it anywhere else on the figure?
Hi there, I'm new to collecting. I bought a 10th Anniversary Resident Evil Chris Redfield action figure. I can't tell if it's real or fake. The seller is not from China and sold it for $125 on Ebay. The vest has more detail than the pants. I found another one on Ebay and it has more detail on the green vest than mines. Is it just me overthinking or mines just as less detail?
That may be just a variation in the manufacturing of batches of figures. Have you checked if you’re figure has the NECA copyright notice on one of the feet? If it has that, then it’s 99.9% certain to be a genuine figure.
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 Nvm it has it, thanks for the video!
@@aaronpareja5931 thanks for watching 😎
I've made the mistake of purchasing a bootleg recently, I was trying to get the 30th anniversary edition of the NECA Ultimate Freddy Krueger from the first nightmare on elm street. Because I own the re-issue, and the colors are too bright for Freddy imo. When it arrived the arm snapped off immediately, he couldn't stand properly, and his face seemed WAY too ashy. When I learned it's a bootleg I immediately returned it and purchased the real one off eBay.
Where did you buy it from in the first place?
Thank you for the great content!
Thank you for watching 😎
I got a ghostface neca figure from bestbuy the bottom of the foot says neca 2020 made in china?? Is it a fake?
All NECA figures are made in China and if you bought it from a retailer like BestBuy, then it’s highly unlikely they would be stocking fake bootlegs.
Doctor... you gave the creature your genius mind ...but what did the creature get from you? SINGS OPERA!
Some online sellers will get butthurt and block you just for asking them if their listed figure is authentic. Also probably a sign it is a bootleg. Although some sellers are not even aware of bootlegs or that their figure is a bootleg which is why I ask to begin with. Honest sellers will tell you and sellers you dont want to deal with will either ignore you or block you. One seller sold me a bootleg endoskeleton terminator and didnt even know bootlegs existed. She gave me a refund and didn't even ask for the bootleg back so some sellers are legitimately unaware of the problem. I actually buy bootlegs in some instances if they are decent quality but I always verify if its is authentic or not ahead of time. Got burned once on mercari with a Jason part 5 figure that turned out to be a bootleg so I always verify even if listing says Neca in listing description.
Some of neca figures have a mark inside of the cloth , but I'm not pretty sure of it , can anyones tells about the hidden mark on neca figures? Or we can discuss about it? Thank you
I wasn’t aware of any hidden mark on the cloth of figures. The only figure I’ve got that has soft goods cloth is the Pinhead Hellraiser figure which is, sadly, a fake anyway. Does anyone else know about the mark on these figures?
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 for examples I've a Scarface tony Montana figure with a blue suit & white suit from neca and the mark hide on behind the plastic cloth , and I've boondocks saints figure with the hiden mark like a Scarface figure , I think not every neca figure have the mark on the shoes or foot , but you can ask or discuss with the another neca collector or you can ask neca as well about this
Is eBay fine to buy from it you missed the release of an item? I recently bought the Homelander figure from eBay, a US seller. And the figure has the Neca markings and everything. Every other reliable website doesn’t have it in stock. I even asked the seller whether it was authentic and he even said that he bought them at Walmart a few years back when they came out.
I always check two things when buying from eBay, the seller’s location and their feedback rating. High long established feedback means they are probably a reputable seller, if low and says from China and only recently set up, I always avoid as been caught out a few times like that.
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836Ok than I should be fine the seller had positive feedback and is from the US. Also had Been around for a while.
I'm too old to track down legitimate ones, even reputable web sites sell the ones made in China. I didn't think anything of it because it seems everything is made in China nowadays. Though it pisses me off to no end that I sometimes break off the pin that's supposed to go in a joint (maybe the real NECA figures that's not as much of a problem?) and sometimes I can't get a spare head on the figure.
You’ll find that even the legitimate NECA figures have some of those problems too!
I found the 1/4 scale freddy kreuger figure by neca and it is 189.99 on the website I found. Is that a good price or is that a bootleg?
That’s about it’s retail price and their 1/4 scale figures are really good!
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 so that meens its not a fake?
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 The 1/4 scale freddy from part 2 was on DJC Collectibles foe $189.99
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 I found it cheaper for $129.99
@@theholidayshow1026 well I personally can’t 100% guarantee that but usually you find that bootlegs are about half the price of the genuine NECA figures so might be worth contacting the website you’ve found it on to get confirmation and reassurance.
Honestly Frankie still looks cool considering. Imagine them doing a knockoff of the Kessler wolf.
I just ordered the Kessler Wolf from BigBadToyStore!
I bought a 7” Batman Begins figure from eBay and want to know if it is real. Is there any branding/signs I should look for? He doesn’t have extremely crazy eyes.
It should have the NECA trademark either on the bottom of one of the feet or elsewhere on the figure.
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 do you still have the figure to check where it is?
I try to look for never been taken out of box because if this... Some of these look really good and can full someone just from the product image advertised on eBay. It really sucks
It seems to be a problem NECA have made for themselves bizarrely!
I always buy from my local comic book store
I have bought elvis on tour neca product, on the foot it says "neca 2020 made in china" is this fake or real? Please answer my question
Sorry but I honestly don’t know without seeing the figure, as it’s not always cut and dry. If you read the rest of the comments on this video, you’ll find out that even some genuine NECA products don’t have the trademark on the foot. All I can say is that if you have bought it from a reputable dealer or website and not direct from China, the chances are very good that your figure is genuine but I can’t give you a full cast iron 100% guarantee. Hope that helps 😎
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 thanks for your advice
Extremely loose joints, cheap paint, misaligned eyes, missing neca logo on box, stock photos with no photos of the actual item and cheap price are all giveaways as well.
Where do you get your neca figures from
He said, his indian mate panjif gets them for him on the cheap
I have a huge problem with it , because I am from Ukraine , so all action figures are brought here. We don’t have eBay or Amazon but also we don’t have these figures in shops/stores/targets (or it’s extremely rare to happen, and usually they all fake) So the only way to get action figure - order from internet from online shops. We have some platforms similar to Amazon , but it’s extremely hard to find a really original figure 🥲 I got a fake Freddy action figure, and didn’t even suspect that there can be fake ones here, so I was disappointed when found out. (There are Neca 2011 copyright mark on the foot haha) I have enough money to get original ones , and I want only such. I am gonna buy Pinhead action figure soon , hope it will be original 🥲 At least in reviews everyone says that it seems to be original. I hope so. (I also have an 100% original Pennywise action figure (he don’t have any copyright marks on foots , but it must be like this , I watched a lot of unboxings) ordered from Amazon few years ago, but you know, you need to spend 60 more dollars for the shipment , it’s not really cool because usually it’s more expensive than the figures themselves 😭
(Sorry for grammar mistakes 🤙)
Another way you tell is switch parts. Like for example if you have two different Chuckys and parts don't fit on the real one than it's a fake.
Great tip, thank you!
Figure and the real goes for ridiculously expensive prices online. The bootleg I find isn’t that bad.
Agree, the only one that is below “quality” is Pinhead which, after you see the genuine one, looks awful in comparison.
I wound up with a “Neca” Freddy bootleg from overseas. The art work is faded and the box itself if very cheaply made…
It is a minefield at times.
You could always get a razor and thin out the pins on pinhead. Lol
If I can't get the neca figures I want at retail then I don't get them at all I don't do boot legs fuck that
How did she manage to get a bootleg Frankenstein when it hasn’t even been out long. I think I got NECA Christopher reeves superman, Heath ledger joker and Adam west batman but I think mines are bootlegs got them for £55 on eBay. Have never checked the feet before
No idea, haven’t broken the news to her yet but I do recall her mentioning it was bought on eBay. Thanks for watching.
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 no worries man tbh if my dc ones mentioned are KOs then they are good ones get some good and some bad from what I can tell
@@weeold exactly and as I say in the video, they’re still good enough to keep in the collection. It’s not like they’re like those dodgy Turkish Star Wars figures from years ago 😂
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 oh yeah I think I got a couple of them on holiday from Blackpool’s promenade one of Leia in boosh armour and the other was the red armour Luke from shadows of the empire both were ok when you had the helmets on but dam the faces were garbage
my IT figure don’t have anything on his foot bought him new from walmart
If you read from the other comments, it isn’t an exact science. NECA really do seem to have made this mess themselves! Common consensus is, if you’ve bought it from a legitimate source, then chances are you can be 99.9% certain you have a genuine figure, just stay away from Chinese sellers online, AliExpresss and eBay.
I've gotten a couple sub par bootlegs and that I have a problem with. If a bootleg is at least equal in quality to the authentic though, I don't care any. Especially if it's cheaper than scalper prices. I'd be way more upset paying a scalper some stupid amount of money they don't deserve than i would paying a reasonable price to a bootleger for a good quality product.
Well said! The only sub par bootleg I have is Pinhead from Hellraiser, the rest are all very good and were bought for very good prices.
I just ordered the feral predator from China. Do you think it’ll be a knock off?
I honestly couldn’t say my friend. As you’ll see from many of the comments from other collectors, it really is pot luck sometimes when ordering NECA products and sometimes figures you think are knock offs because they don’t carry Trademarks on the figure, actually turn out to be genuine NECA products. All I can advise is do your research on the seller first, if they have good reviews and are a reputable seller/online retailer then you should be ok but even some of the knock off figures are just as good as the genuine ones.
I actually have a new NECA video going up tomorrow where I open and review a NECA figure that I bought very cheaply to see if it is a knock off version, never done that deliberately before so look out for it.
Thanks for watching 😎
Hey I want to get into NECA, but where can I find authentic figures?
Is target and Walmart as good as people say they are?
What are some legit online sources?
Anywhere like that’s official is good, just stay away from places like eBay and Ali express
Thanks for this vid
Like the video... honestly I can't really tell myself...I do know most my neca are legit because I snapped them up the moment they came out and I try to buy them from my local store target Walmart etc etc. The only ones I'm sure are knockoff are my neca comic turtles ...I'm not sure about my Chris Reeve Superman but honestly don't care because the original easily breaks and I'm told 89 Batman breaks easy as well... I usually try to buy extras of Chris Reeve Superman and 89 Batman since they break so easy. All they have to do is look real cool. I think my 89 Batman is legit since I bought them at the store. Superman not so sure but I have alot extras of him along with the 1/4 version. Let them do a 1/4 knockoff of Superman in that scale.... HA! .
The one that really scares me trying to guess are the mafex figures since there so pricey and hard to come by.
Do Amazon sell fakes ??? I’m curious
No.
No, only on ebay or other websites. Amazon is safe
I just watched this video, and I'm not entirely sure that what you said about the copyrights is totally correct. I've been buying my NECA figures from the same bricks and mortar retailer for years and I'm certain they get them from a UK distributor in much the same way Forbidden Planet would. I think it's dependent on the licensing agreement NECA have with a particular studio as to what appears on the feet. I have a Pennywise, Deckard from Blade Runner 2049 and all the Gremlins, which are all by Warner, and they have nothing on their feet. My Frankenstein Monster, by Universal, does have a copyright as does my Ash (Evil Dead) which has a Starz copyright on it. My Alien, by Fox, has logos on it too (Check the bottom of the toes!). Every one of those came from the same place and the same distributor and I doubt they'd have a mix of real and fake.
I do, however, agree with you about eBay sellers in China. When I was looking for my Alien, I saw loads pop up at prices way lower than MSRP, all were the same style of listing. They were definitely bootlegs. eBay isn't all bad though. I found one guy in the UK and every figure I've had from him has been genuine and if my regular place doesn't have it then I look to him.
Well, sorry to say but the info provided is not entirety accurate. Some NECA figures, despite the fact they are genuine, do NOT come with stamps on the back of their feet. For example, the 2-pack Sarah and John Connor - Sarah comes with the stamps, John does not. I as well own the Michael Keaton Bats (but the purple retro game version, same mold), and mine as well does not come with the stamps on the back of it's feet. Now i know for a fact these are genuine because i only buy from licenced shops, only use Ebay for vintage Gi Joes. So yeah. .Some NECA figures just do not come with the stamps. Your Keaton Bats might be 100% genuine sir!
Hi there, yes this is something I’ve discovered since uploading the video. It is really strange that NECA do this but still think it’s good to be cautious. Like you, I’ve learned to only buy from reputable online stores and not sellers from second markets like eBay. Thanks for watching 😎👍🏻
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 The 1989 Batman movie is by Warner. None of my NECA figures from Warner movies have logos on. I think it's down to whatever agreement NECA has with the studio as to what appears on the figure.
Okay NECA figures are awesome looking but they have tremendous quality issues they're brittle they break very easily also there are very expensive. I would prefer to buy legitimate product and that's usually what I'm looking for. Yet should a knock off look like the real thing and I get it unknowingly I don't care.
Do you know where I can get a authentic team fortress two figure
Sorry, not sure but thanks for the view
Ok
As far as I know, there are no fakes Neca Team Fortress
@@degisti6108 that’s great
I found a new trick they are using now. I accidentally bought a bootleg Ultimate Freddy. I could tell as soon as I saw the box in person - very dark, muddy and unprofessional print job and the box was missing the usual hanging tab. His feet do have what look like Neca markings but 1) the font was a little weird 2) It says "Mede in China."
If there's one thing scammers hate it's having to put in real effort.
I think Pinhead got it the worst, out of the bootlegs shown here. The body, in particular, isn't nearly dark enough or glossy enough, and the bloody detailing on his chest looks sloppy. A lot of NECA bootlegs are really close to official looking, but that one kinda stands out to me
It’s the pins in the headsculpt that really let it down, I thought they were fine until I saw a genuine one in store and was shocked at how bad the bootleg is in comparison.
Some knockoffs have copyright marks on the feet
Well that new revelation throws everything up in the air! Thanks for watching 😎
Do Amazon sell fake Neca figures???
@@Gdugg2100 Amazon themselves, very doubtful. Third party sellers? Depends on where/who they are, always best to check third party seller reviews before purchasing.
Let's pray we don't buy the fakes/bootlegs/copy/clones/knock-offs coz' sometimes they're priced the same as the genuine.
God bless.
Just bought off entertainment earth will it be legit
They are a very reputable website 👍🏻

@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 also omg hi I didn’t know it was you
@@upshiftgaming5718 most toys and action figures are made in China so as long as you bought it from somewhere reputable then you should be alright 😎
God of war figures have neca markings even if bootleg, why is that?
No idea 🤷🏼♂️ perhaps the bootleggers are improving their bootlegs due to the fact the majority of them didn’t have the markings?
Are the genuine Neca figures made in China?
Most of the figures are made in China, if you read through other comments on this video, you’ll find lots of info on what is and isn’t a bootleg since this was filmed. Fair to say, always buy from reputable websites or dealers and stay away from eBay, shouldn’t go far too wrong then 👍🏻
@@beardedgeektoyreviews836 Thanks, I only buy mine from Amazon and HMV.
Some bootlegs are actually better than Neca figures because they display lots of QC issues, just saying
I dont have a problem with neca bootlegs, they are easy to avoid depending on where you buy your figures, if you have a problem with fakes.
Whilst like most i prefer legit version there are times when i need multiples and bootlegs are a much cheaper alternative.
Some bootlegs are also identical to the real versions and have no distinctions, although there are some characters (chucky and pennywise) where you can clearly tell they are fake.
Also lets not forget that when there is no way to get exclusives or figures that were never released outside of the US then you can always get a bootlegged version ( which is the case for 89 Batman figure) which is better than not having it.
I agree and, as I say in the video, none of the ones I have (bar Pinhead) are bad enough to throw in the bin.
The Hasbro “seconds” are great for army building and I’ve bought a few of those “Star Wals” troopers over the years to boost their numbers.
what if you dont want too spend so much money on the orignal look unless your profesonal on telling if stuff is fake who is going too be up on your face and threaten you saying hey man this is a fake bootleg get that off your shelf i buy boot legs all the time key work all the time and i leave them in one pose i know they will break or default stand pose . but i buy fakes cause one original goes up in value recently i am not spend 200 or 300 for a character i love nope not me . i have a bootleg spider-man marvel legends and sh figure art figures no one complain in my old videos off my old collection . i had too sell some old stuff i no longer have the video up but no one in my comments was like yo ronin storm you have a fake sh figure art dbz characters nope they was like cool collection
pluse to be honist i buy bootlegs too have on my display i have the real ones in the box sealed . and my neciece and nephews come over too my parents house too sleep and play video games with me but they also like too play figures so i just let them play the knock offs save the boot leg man
Ive recently purchased a neca 1990 pennywise figure from Amazon and i could have sworn when i had it before in 2019 it had a lot more detail in the newspaper boat thats included and in the new one i got the boat is basically faded to white and the hands dont look as detailed. Hmmmm🤔
Depends if it was direct from Amazon themselves or from a third party seller on the site? It’s a minefield sometimes with NECA!!
Great articulations?? Neca?? Jajajajajajajaja
SHIT! I just buy a super expensive godzilla figure and.. sadly .. A FUCKING BOOTLEG, 69$ MAN 69$ A FREAKIN KINGOJI. The box is just pixels and the figure as a weird articulation, fake
Sorry to hear that, have you tried contacting the seller you bought it from?
The best way to necas is amazon but other than that, don't buy online
Some of them are dusty...
😂😂 apologies my figures don’t meet your cleanliness standards, thanks for watching 😎
