There are a lot of cheap, legit Nendoroids if you buy them used from Japan. Used in Japan often means that the box may have a slight bent, but often times the boxes aren’t even opened and even if they are, Japanese fans keep really good care of their figures (mostly) Good places to buy used figures in general are AmiAmi used section, Mandarake and Surugaya.
I actually got two Madoka Magica ones from a Wattmans for only ¥1,600!! I was so excited to get them! But unfortunately I believe wattmans doesn’t do online shopping it’s only in person here in japan.
Seeing as the Tanjiro is 130$ and the fake is 15$ I’ll go fake that said I ABSOLUTELY don’t plan on reselling and people that try to push fakes as legit deserve a special place in HELL!!!
@@JennySupremo btw just wanted to let you guys know that you find more results on Mandarake and Surugaya, if you copy and paste the Japanese name in kanji of the character/series you want to the search bar. If you write it in English letters you’ll still get results but just not that many
The fact that its 15$ sure id buy it but i saw a whole bunch of fake nendoroids at the mall for full price of the original, it was easy to tell because the faces of the fakes look kind of deflated so if you dont want to buy a fake look for that detail as well!
On some bootlegs like this one. Ofcourse other bootlegs that are way waaaay cheaper look totally different. So we have to be careful when buying nendos ☺️
I have only two Nendoroids, Sakura Miku and BotW Link, both fake and I always feel so bad when people say "If you don't have the money, don't buy any Nendoroid." You saying that it's ok when you are on a low budget makes me happy again, because I have almost no money for my hobby, cause Im without a job at the moment but I wanted to have these two so bad... Thank you very much for making me happy again with those words
Heeey ofcourse it's okay. Please don't feel bad. Buying real ones ofcourse will help the industry but that doesn't mean buying fakes are something to feel so bad for. You can't force yourself especially if it concerns money. What's important is you're happy and satisfied. Fake or not. 💕 I started there too. When I was still in college and it took me 10 years to finally buy and commit to real anime figures. Just keep the passion burning. 🔥🔥
In addition to what's already been said, Counterfeit figures I've held irritated my skin and caused a rash. No way is it worth buying something potentially harmful.
Update.... I just bought bootleg Nendo Tanjiro. Although it has all boogleg qualities, surpisingly it looks much better than yours! The box is sligthly different too! It must be from other company. The paint is exceptionally good, except for shoulders which is strangely blurred. And it misses a bent leg accessories. For a bootleg, this one is hard to see if you just display it on the shelf.
Bootlegs are improving every release I guess. It was so easy to see the difference before as fakes look reaaaaally shitty haha! Like I said my fake can look different than other fakes and it is as you confirmed the fake you got looked better 😱😱 i guess we really have to be really meticulous and extra careful especially purchasing online ☺️

I agree. It's unfortunate but collecting figures come hand in hand with expensive prices so if the price is too good to be true, best believe it's fake or if it's real, might have some kind of damage or defect 😩🤷🏻♀️
How many Nendos do you have? I want ask, why some nendo's paint is so bad? Original but when I "play" with it, the paint is chipped off. It hurts.... I have Takashi Natsume. His shirt is so very sensitive.
I'm new to collecting nendos I think have 15 more or less. I do think this kind of figures are sensitive. Some even have flimsy parts despite being originals. I can't answer to why the paints chip off sometimes tho because so far it didn't happen to me. What happened to mine was discolouring from white to light yellow tho
@@angelo-7533 what? Whoa whoa that's too sensitive. Are all signs of legitimacy there? It's my first time hearing about this kind of issue. I do know some chipped paint issues but that would be from older nendos or stored nendos in boxes for a very long time. :O
at the moment I was on a pretty low budget. I know the nendroid I ordered is fake but it’s only because I knew my mom and anyone in my family would think it’s outrageous to buy such an expensive “toy” as they’d call it. I honestly wish I could get an authentic version just so I wouldn’t promote the person who copied someone’s hard work but like I said, I was on a low budget.
personally i’d definitely prefer the original :) just something you should have a separate piggy bank to save up for. I feel it’s more worth it that way.
One reason why the box is two parts for real Nendoroids is because they sometimes package large, flat parts in between both box parts that wouldn't fit in the blister. That way the nice coloured inside doesn't get damaged by the tape to hold the part in place. I have the Sasori Nendoroid from Naruto and his 3rd Kazekage puppet decal was boxed that way. At first I thought it was missing but the manual said where it was. 😅 Only reason I have ever pulled out that inner box.
This channel is a real life saver when purchasing nendroids! Any nendroid I’ve bought I always THUROUGHLY check from this channel, I use mercari to buy nendroids always in the condition “new” it may be more expensive and I may have to wait a while for a listing on one labeled “new” but it is definitely worth it! I bought a nendroid off mercari once before with the condition “used” thinking it just meant it had been in someone’s home for awhile, maybe opened and the nendroid peices had never been changed or taken out. It was kind of discouraging that it had already been used and displayed many times before me! Dust was in between the hair and neck and joint and was very hard to clean! The pieces also weren’t in original plastic packaging so they where loosely in the bleachers, wich was kind of unsafe in shipping. So that’s my first peice of advise for buying nendroids that aren’t directly from good smile! Always buy “new” unless you don’t care about stuff like that haha maybe just me. Third piece of advise! 👏Always check the images 👏 that means check for discoloration in packaging, don’t look for logos!! As we can see here company’s will use the hood smile logo! Watch videos to see small details! They can be VERY difficult to find. Fourth peice of advise- 👏check the seller👏 I cannot stress this enough!! Make sure they have at least 4.5 stars and have badges and reviews. Badges such as “reliable” “fast responder” look for reviews such as “great packaging” “fast shipper” these show you how safe your product will be and the determination the seller has to ship is a really good factor. Showing they do care about the products! Those are my tips!!! Be safe when shopping on sites such as second hand and used sites! And always watch videos and reviews to check packaging!!
This comment really made me soooo happy today. \(￣︶￣*\)) Thank you for using this video as your reference for identifying fakes and verifying the authenticity of your nendoroids. I feel honored😁 Second, you got very good tips there. PLUS ONE on checking images. IT'S A MUST. If buyers can ask for actual clips or videos of the item being sold, much better too. Thank you for sharing your pointers/insights! This will definitely help newbie nendoroid collectors out there! Bless you always~ (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
should've focused on the hologram sticker, as well as the printing/font/spacing on the box as the box is the first, and realistically only thing, that can be used to differ when making a purchase. Also should've pointed out the paint imperfections on the chest, belt and buttons.
I agree. That's why I don't base fakes on hologram stickers. Some of my nendos don't have it. It's unfortunate your Nendo is that sensitive. Did you contact Goodsmile about it? Might be a defect. That's new news to me. Really. :'(
For the fakes problem of the hole being to small, I just went over with a bit of sandpapper and it fit. Note I was on a budget and had never bought a nendoroid before
I didn't think of fixing it anymore since I really don't collect fakes in the first place. I sold it to someone with dirt cheap price instead 🤷🏻♀️ it's nice of you to share this idea. This could help those who also bought some fakes with the same problem. Though I advice to rather buy real ones if you can rather than spending on fakes. I-if your situation permits you to. In the future or if you have saved enough 🤗😊
@@JennySupremo tbh for me I just wanted something for that character (it's a fake pokemon N nendoroid) but I wasn't overly sure about the price especially saying I'd never bought something like it be so getting a fake one wasn't too bad, it looks like the character which is what matters most to me. Did just manage to get a DXF figure off ebay of the same character... Not cheap... Not cheap at all...
Bootlegs are FUN I personally, want an entire collection of Sailor Moon bootleg wands/brooches. Why? Because they MAKE FUN NOISES the older ones from the 90s/2000s take music from the Pink Sugar Wand, and the Crisis Brooch lol
I found a cleaning Levi nendoroid for a super good price and it’s definitely a bootleg, but it looks super cute and the paint is nice too! I just don’t find it reasonable at all to pay 400 bucks or more in retail...I love Levi but this is where I draw the line 😹 love my little fake one tho now
I buy the fake ones to repaint them and make custom nendoroid dolls. If I wanted an existing character I think I'd definitely go with a real one. Anyway great video! I've seen some where it was obvious but others seem to be harder to spot now like this one here, surprising!
Bootlegs are improving these days but ofcourse there are still a lot of obvious ones out there. You got a pretty neat idea on making custom made Nendo dolls tho. 👌
One of the kinda mindblowing things I found out about fake nendoroids, is that if you have like an authentic one, and that character can clone himself like Naruto, you can have bunch of Shadow clone Naruto's for yourself XD
The packaging had the separate background like the real one in this video but it had no tape keeping it closed, no extra plastic in it. But the arm popped out I think during shipping. I got Ed and al from full metal alchemist. I got the English voice actors to sign them I think 2 years ago give or take. Could mine be a better fake or cause the person had them out to take pictures that would explain why there is no tape or anything ?
Was it declared as brand new upon your purchase? If not, then it can be real but pre owned. The owner might have opened to check the items inside. Tho I don't know about other fakes having separate backgrounds. All I know is not long ago, the face plates were copied from the old nendos despite the real ones having ball joints already. 🤷🏻♀️ As of the moment I only own 1 fake so this is the only thing I could compare a real nendo from
I don't see it onhand on Amiami. Did you try browsing on Goodsmile company's official shop/website. Or if not try looking on groups in Facebook. Im sorry I couldn't be of much help.
I used cd japan, but you have to pre order for quite a few of them, it a good place to pre order while anticipating a release, they do offer a service to get older ones too but I don't know how much extra it costs and I'm not sure if theres a possibility that any of those suppliers sell fakes, it is a japanese company though so I doubt it, since all of the products are sourced from japanese shops as far as I know. I pre ordered the Natsume takashi nendoroid there and he was legit, and everything else I've bought from them has been really good too.
Crunchyroll too, but they always cost more because the company is taking a cut aswell. So I'd recommend buying straight from Japan, cuts out the US companies from the price. I live in the uk so I'll have to pay deliver either way so I'm not giving the US company an extra cut on top of delivery when I can just order from japan instead.
I got a fake Jotaro Kujo for a birthday present from a family member and the box was super sketchy and had a ton of tape- but the figure was decently alright with a few minor paint mistakes. Not bad for a first nendroid to own :>
Hi Noah. That fake you got weighs more than any real Nendoroid as it was a birthday present. ❤️❤️❤️ It now has a sentimental value and priceless. Make it as a comparison for future planned purchases instead.
Thank you so! Yes I have a Nezuko nendoroid too and I plan to make this kind of video on her fake and real nendos as well but idk if that's what ppl wanna see haha!
UPDATE: Nezuko video might be posted around next month. I hope your orders could wait. Hehe. Don't forget to click the notification bell incase you wanna see it soon~ thank you 💋
one thing to take notice of if we want to find an authentic nendoroid is the official seal that corresponds the characters and where theyre from, from that, we can easily tell that the nendoroid is authentic
The wide glass case I bought from a shop named Mandaue Foam, I'm from the Philippines you see. We dont have IKEA and this is the closest we have. The one next to it, I had it custom made ☺️
I will certainly do other Nendo comparisons like this but I can't promise I could do Eren. I dont have him in my collection ATM so I won't make promises 😉
I don't mind the fakes cuz where I lived a real nendoroid cost over 200 ringgit and I don't really have much money. So I might buy a fake nendoroid but who knows. I will buy the real nendoroid when I'm older tho!
Heya, thanks for this video! It really opened my eyes... It's crazy how the bootleg figure looked almost identical to the original figure, even from the box! They even use the original brand logo... OMG. 😱It's gonna be hard/confusing trying to order from amazon, ebay etc. 😅I guess the best way to purchase genuine figures is from actual retailers 😬
I started collecting last year and made the mistake to purchase 2 fake nendoroids. I was so excited because I had no idea bootlegs were a thing. You can just imagine my disappointment when they got here and I realized how low quality they were. I couldn't even stand them, all their body parts fell easily, and the paint job was incredibly poor. That's when I learned about bootlegs and realized the real price of a good quality figure. Sometimes it's tempting to buy bootlegs for how cheap they are, but I 100% prefer to save up some money and slowly buy some good quality original figures over having a lot of bootlegs. Now I have quite a decent collection and can't wait to make it even bigger this year!💜 Thanks for the vid, it'll help lots of new collectors who have no idea how awful bootlegs can be!
I've been there and I fully understand how you felt. I even bought my bootlegs as a set in a mall. In a mall where I never thought I could ever buy fake items 😩😩 anyway, my collections today are full of real ones. I only bought this fake one for comparison and I do agree that it's best to save up for originals rather than spending on fakes which are waste of money. 😊😊 I also have another video for newbies in toy collecting and since you're not new anymore, I hope you could share your thoughts in the comments there too. 🤗 th-cam.com/video/Oy9cVC_BAA8/w-d-xo.html
You could look for real Nendoroids directly from Goodsmile Company's website. You could also browse over Amiami or Mandarake. I would suggest to avoid places like eBay, Amazon or alibaba. there are tons of fakes over there, there's a high chance you would get scammed
Oh you noticed. Although I did not include that with the box differences anymore since some authentic nendos do get damaged because of the courier sometimes.
Awwwee thank you! If you're also interested, I will be posting a comparison of Nezuko too this coming weekend. Don't forget to sub if you ever wanna see that too 😉 and thanks for dropping by~
Some fakes copy the stickers so it's not the most efficient way to spot a fake in my opinion. You can spot a fake right away if it's declared brand new tho! Just check the tape they use. If it's a round tape and doesn't show any sign of damage or being tapped, then it's real. Fakes usually either use regular rectangular tapes or no tapes at all
Sorry for the late reply oscar! The authentic Nendoroid was bought from an online shop named the phantomdibs. The fake one was bought from an online shop similar to amazon. ^_^
The stand has a logo? I havent seen a stand with a logo so far. Idk if it's like that with every nendoroid. The base however is where I usually look at since most fakes miss the details.
Hey, thanks for that idea! I will try and make that video soon but for this month I'm already full. Don't forget to subscribe I'll surely make a video of this suggestion maybe around next month ☺️☺️
@@JennySupremo sure thing! thank you to you for helping out so many of us, you're really nice, i'll make sure to subscribe so i don't miss it! and please take your time making it ^^ (*ゝωб*)b
I'm going to upload another fake and original comparison soon covering more things I wasn't able to tackle in this video so I hope you'd watch that too ☺️
Eyyy. It's okay. If money is your concern and you really wanna have the figure, buying a fake is alright. But if you can, try and save and then buy a real one the future. It will surely give you a much feeling of satisfaction especially if you set it as a goal and also help the industry. 🤗
What do you mean by link? If you meant link for the video, I don't have comparison of nendos between fake and real zenitsus yet. If you meant link for the shop to buy the fake nendoroid, I'm sorry. As much as I want to help, I want to discourage buying fake anime figures. Tho I'm not judging anyone, I can't give out links for fake too. It's my way to support the industry. If you still want to purchase fake zenitsu, it's out there and you just have to search it for yourself. 😌
@@aeroisvalid do you live in the Philippines? I could give you links if ever. I see some shops selling on hand zenitsus. Altho if you're from another country I don't think I could help you with that aside from try and check over Amiami
i like how u keep noticing stuff while im staring like an idiot trying to notice the differences as someone who doesn't have a nendoroid yet, i think ill get an original, or will try to buy an original holidays are close so ill get some money, why not having fun with original stuff?
thank you so much for this video! my mom recently just ordered me 3 nendoroids but im scared that they're gonna be bootlegs so hopefully i don't get any fakes 💔😩
You're welcome (I guess? Haha I hope this video helps you somehow 😊) update me when your nendoroids arrive. Also kudos to your mom for supporting your anime figure collecting 👌💕
there are 2 easy spot for newbie collector to differentiate which is fake n real, first in every figure (nendoroid, figma, scaled figure) in real one you will find labels what company own (or publish) originally those anime, example at this tanjiro nendoroid box you will (and must) find shueisha label. Second this is really help if you buy figure without box (secondhand so usually cheaper) just look at the figure base, real one must have their original publisher stamped either at bottom, side or behind the base, example at this tanjiro nendo the real one must have shueisha name stamped at his base. hope this help and happy collecting
@@JennySupremo oh no no haha think your looking wrong or I'm not explaining good. Do you have MFC I can add you and send a photo of the part. I'm confused to where it goes BC even instructions don't say exactly.
I'm sorry I already forgot my MFC. I just don't understand what you meant by brown knee thing. Is it on the extra knee part? Because if so, you can just pull it out. The sole purpose of it is just to fill the hole of the extra part while it's not attached to the main body. Idk if that's the answer you've been looking for
I tried scrolling on amazon. There were lots of fakes over there but believe me, there are still official goodsmile company partnered shop selling authentic nendos there, Unfortunately, I think because they're being taxed or something, price is bumped up a little bit. just a little bit :3
As much as I wanna help you, I can't post it. To me it's like endorsing and encouraging buying bootlegs. If you still insist tho, there are surely a looooooot of fakes on the internet. A quick search would probably lead you to one. 😉👌
Hmmm the ones that I see on hand in my country are Kageyama, Suga and Hinata. It actually depends on you but I'd probably choose the characters closest to the heart. Nendoroids are expensive and small so you might wanna choose a character you really really love so when it arrives, regardless of the price, there won't be any regrets. 👌 Or else just buy hinata first since he's the main character 🤔😉
I just bought a sealed nendoroid (round sticker lol) via facebook marketplace. I'm 99% pretty sure its real, but if its not, I'll have learned my lesson. Thanks for the tips!
This is why I buy mostly Jojo’s bizarre adventure figures because fakes of jojo figures are almost nonexistent. For example most Medicos jojo figures do not have ANY fake version of the original (I Looked for hours). There’s only bootleg versions of Dio, jotaro, Bruno and abbaccio
when i first got a nendoroid i was so confuse and might have lost some peaces i was confused on the parts but im kinda doing better when i just found out you can make the poses thats on box its getting easier now i was rlly happy when i first got a nendoroid/figure this actually helped me out as remembering i got a fake nendoroid after waiting for months for it to come and some of the peaces broke but im still satisfied with it still
Yeah…even if I were to buy a nendoroid for looks I would still go for the legit one ‘cause even if the bootleg might look good enough theres is no guarantee that all joints will fit
TRUUEEE! it might be more expensive but in return you get better quality and it's an official merch as well. It's one of the best ways to show our support to the makers of the series and the figure industry ♪ヽ(･ˇ∀ˇ･ゞ)
From a website available in the Philippines. There are lots of bootlegs available around tho. Do you plan on getting one? I mean, since you're kindly asking. 🤷🏻♀️
i’m not 100% sure on why the coloured part of the box is a different piece but one of the reasons is that sometimes they put pieces behind them. my kaworu nendoroid came with an AT field and it was kept behind the piece of cardboard
Indeed they do keep supposed Nendo effects or backgrounds behind the cardboards. I had the same with the phantom thieves Nendoroids too. Hmmmm. So that's the reason! Thank you! 💖
Thanks for this I can now determine the diff bet the fake & real.. I'm planning to buy Jalter bootleg in Japan soon coz I am scared to buy online and I'm thinking that maybe there's a discount there..
I didn't know there was actually a fake one. But I guess every figure has fakes since they sell like pancakes~ I'll look for that video tho. Got me interested 😮
There were re releases by the end of last year tho. It's unfortunate you missed out on that. Personally I think there will be a third release in the future too just like haikyuu since Demon Slayer is a very popular anime too. Just keep on look out 😉
Internationally, I suggest Amiami, directly from Goodsmile company, Mandarake, Solaris Japan. If you're from the Philippines on the other had, there are tons of shops I could recommend :) which country do you live?
Amiami, directly from Goodsmile or solarisJapan. All these 3 sites are legit. If you're from the Philippines tho, this video might help th-cam.com/video/MzCpOJ7x9Po/w-d-xo.html
There are a lot of cheap, legit Nendoroids if you buy them used from Japan.

The only way to ensure getting original product is to PAY MORE EXPENSIVELY. The more you expect to get a bargained price, the bigger chance you end up with a bootleg!

I bought a nendroid off mercari once before with the condition “used” thinking it just meant it had been in someone’s home for awhile, maybe opened and the nendroid peices had never been changed or taken out. It was kind of discouraging that it had already been used and displayed many times before me! Dust was in between the hair and neck and joint and was very hard to clean! The pieces also weren’t in original plastic packaging so they where loosely in the bleachers, wich was kind of unsafe in shipping. So that’s my first peice of advise for buying nendroids that aren’t directly from good smile! Always buy “new” unless you don’t care about stuff like that haha maybe just me.
Third piece of advise! 👏Always check the images 👏 that means check for discoloration in packaging, don’t look for logos!! As we can see here company’s will use the hood smile logo! Watch videos to see small details! They can be VERY difficult to find.
Fourth peice of advise- 👏check the seller👏 I cannot stress this enough!!
Make sure they have at least 4.5 stars and have badges and reviews. Badges such as “reliable” “fast responder” look for reviews such as “great packaging” “fast shipper” these show you how safe your product will be and the determination the seller has to ship is a really good factor. Showing they do care about the products!
Those are my tips!!! Be safe when shopping on sites such as second hand and used sites! And always watch videos and reviews to check packaging!!
This comment really made me soooo happy today. \(￣︶￣*\)) Thank you for using this video as your reference for identifying fakes and verifying the authenticity of your nendoroids. I feel honored😁
Second, you got very good tips there. PLUS ONE on checking images. IT'S A MUST. If buyers can ask for actual clips or videos of the item being sold, much better too.
Thank you for sharing your pointers/insights! This will definitely help newbie nendoroid collectors out there! Bless you always~ (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
The neck gap on older bootlegs will trigger you, i havs an oikawa bootleg... Naming him bootleg-kawa after i get my hands on the original: orig-kawa
Does the fake have flat ass too? Haha!
THIS MADE ME LOL SO HARD
@@JennySupremo hahah flatter than ever😂😂😂
should've focused on the hologram sticker, as well as the printing/font/spacing on the box as the box is the first, and realistically only thing, that can be used to differ when making a purchase. Also should've pointed out the paint imperfections on the chest, belt and buttons.
Thank you for pointing that out. I'll try that next time as this is my first time comparing an original with a bootleg 💗
@@JennySupremo best of luck going forward!
Not all originals have hologram stickers! It mainly depends on distributors.
I agree. That's why I don't base fakes on hologram stickers. Some of my nendos don't have it. It's unfortunate your Nendo is that sensitive. Did you contact Goodsmile about it? Might be a defect. That's new news to me. Really. :'(
Love how the fake one looks jaundiced lmao
omg this won me over 😂😂
This is why I got my first nendroid from a trustworthy shop I didn't want to risk buying a cheap one and it ending up being a fake 😅
That's right. There are even fakes that are sold at the same price as the originals or even priced higher. I feel for those who fall for the scams 😭😩
@@JennySupremo I know it's crazy! I also feel bad for those who fell for these scams
For the fakes problem of the hole being to small, I just went over with a bit of sandpapper and it fit. Note I was on a budget and had never bought a nendoroid before
I didn't think of fixing it anymore since I really don't collect fakes in the first place. I sold it to someone with dirt cheap price instead 🤷🏻♀️ it's nice of you to share this idea. This could help those who also bought some fakes with the same problem. Though I advice to rather buy real ones if you can rather than spending on fakes. I-if your situation permits you to. In the future or if you have saved enough 🤗😊
@@JennySupremo tbh for me I just wanted something for that character (it's a fake pokemon N nendoroid) but I wasn't overly sure about the price especially saying I'd never bought something like it be so getting a fake one wasn't too bad, it looks like the character which is what matters most to me.
Did just manage to get a DXF figure off ebay of the same character... Not cheap... Not cheap at all...
This happened to me and i was so sad about it and I really love the character I got but it was a fake one
Bootlegs are FUN
I personally, want an entire collection of Sailor Moon bootleg wands/brooches. Why? Because they MAKE FUN NOISES
the older ones from the 90s/2000s take music from the Pink Sugar Wand, and the Crisis Brooch lol
If it's the ayayayay little butterfly sound then yes haha
I found a cleaning Levi nendoroid for a super good price and it’s definitely a bootleg, but it looks super cute and the paint is nice too! I just don’t find it reasonable at all to pay 400 bucks or more in retail...I love Levi but this is where I draw the line 😹 love my little fake one tho now
I dont really care if i get a fake one because it still looks good
As long as you're satisfied it's okay. But I hope you'll give authentic figures a chance in the future too 🤗
I buy the fake ones to repaint them and make custom nendoroid dolls. If I wanted an existing character I think I'd definitely go with a real one. Anyway great video! I've seen some where it was obvious but others seem to be harder to spot now like this one here, surprising!
Bootlegs are improving these days but ofcourse there are still a lot of obvious ones out there. You got a pretty neat idea on making custom made Nendo dolls tho. 👌
10:25 PFT- I died lol
🤷🏻♀️ it really does look like that's what fake Tanjiro was trying to say hhaaha
@@JennySupremo 😂 oh noo XD
One of the kinda mindblowing things I found out about fake nendoroids, is that if you have like an authentic one, and that character can clone himself like Naruto, you can have bunch of Shadow clone Naruto's for yourself XD
I love well made fakes! I put 3 of them with my 40+ real ones and make people play “Guess the fake” xD
That seems to be a fun guessing game. Especially between anime figure collectors. 😁😁
@@JennySupremo buying figures from Walmart by 22 dollars and 28 and 38 is that good
Awesome video, It had been a while since I saw someone make a newer video explaining all of this.
Wow. Thank you 😌
The packaging had the separate background like the real one in this video but it had no tape keeping it closed, no extra plastic in it. But the arm popped out I think during shipping. I got Ed and al from full metal alchemist. I got the English voice actors to sign them I think 2 years ago give or take. Could mine be a better fake or cause the person had them out to take pictures that would explain why there is no tape or anything ?
Was it declared as brand new upon your purchase? If not, then it can be real but pre owned. The owner might have opened to check the items inside. Tho I don't know about other fakes having separate backgrounds. All I know is not long ago, the face plates were copied from the old nendos despite the real ones having ball joints already. 🤷🏻♀️ As of the moment I only own 1 fake so this is the only thing I could compare a real nendo from
Do you know where to get a real one? I really want to get one for my birthday :D
I don't see it onhand on Amiami. Did you try browsing on Goodsmile company's official shop/website. Or if not try looking on groups in Facebook. Im sorry I couldn't be of much help.
I used cd japan, but you have to pre order for quite a few of them, it a good place to pre order while anticipating a release, they do offer a service to get older ones too but I don't know how much extra it costs and I'm not sure if theres a possibility that any of those suppliers sell fakes, it is a japanese company though so I doubt it, since all of the products are sourced from japanese shops as far as I know. I pre ordered the Natsume takashi nendoroid there and he was legit, and everything else I've bought from them has been really good too.
Crunchyroll too, but they always cost more because the company is taking a cut aswell. So I'd recommend buying straight from Japan, cuts out the US companies from the price. I live in the uk so I'll have to pay deliver either way so I'm not giving the US company an extra cut on top of delivery when I can just order from japan instead.
I got a fake Jotaro Kujo for a birthday present from a family member and the box was super sketchy and had a ton of tape- but the figure was decently alright with a few minor paint mistakes.
Not bad for a first nendroid to own :>
Hi Noah. That fake you got weighs more than any real Nendoroid as it was a birthday present. ❤️❤️❤️ It now has a sentimental value and priceless. Make it as a comparison for future planned purchases instead.
Omg!! So helpful! You are awesome for doing this ! Do you have one of Nezuko Nendoroid??
Thank you so! Yes I have a Nezuko nendoroid too and I plan to make this kind of video on her fake and real nendos as well but idk if that's what ppl wanna see haha!
@@JennySupremo I would love to see it ! I know one person may not seem like much but I think it would be great !
@@JennySupremo yes pleaseee make one for nezuko as well, I am buying one from big bad toystore and I am terrified that I'd get a bootleg.
@@sohammoulick1178 I didn't know BBBS sold fakes?
UPDATE: Nezuko video might be posted around next month. I hope your orders could wait. Hehe. Don't forget to click the notification bell incase you wanna see it soon~ thank you 💋
If really I dont think it matters original or fake nendoroid for me it needs to look good and need to have normal price
one thing to take notice of if we want to find an authentic nendoroid is the official seal that corresponds the characters and where theyre from, from that, we can easily tell that the nendoroid is authentic
where did you get your glass case for you figures?
The wide glass case I bought from a shop named Mandaue Foam, I'm from the Philippines you see. We dont have IKEA and this is the closest we have. The one next to it, I had it custom made ☺️
Will you do these type of videos for other nendoroid? I'm curious to know if my Eren Yeager is a bootleg or not.
I will certainly do other Nendo comparisons like this but I can't promise I could do Eren. I dont have him in my collection ATM so I won't make promises 😉
wow...today the fake one getting better...i hardly to recognize which one the real and fake without comparison side by side..
Yes. Unfortunately. Fakes were easy to spot just by the difference in face plates. They're trying to catch up 🤷🏻♀️
I don't mind the fakes cuz where I lived a real nendoroid cost over 200 ringgit and I don't really have much money. So I might buy a fake nendoroid but who knows. I will buy the real nendoroid when I'm older tho!
ooorrr you can patiently wait for pre owned authentic nendoroids. I have seen some sell their real ones for as low as 50 ringgit.
The bootlegs always lack one important thing, maybe the most important when it comes to figures: Love
Heya, thanks for this video! It really opened my eyes... It's crazy how the bootleg figure looked almost identical to the original figure, even from the box! They even use the original brand logo... OMG. 😱It's gonna be hard/confusing trying to order from amazon, ebay etc. 😅I guess the best way to purchase genuine figures is from actual retailers 😬
True! I really don't advise buying over Amazon. There's a lot of fakes and scammers there. :(
I started collecting last year and made the mistake to purchase 2 fake nendoroids. I was so excited because I had no idea bootlegs were a thing. You can just imagine my disappointment when they got here and I realized how low quality they were. I couldn't even stand them, all their body parts fell easily, and the paint job was incredibly poor. That's when I learned about bootlegs and realized the real price of a good quality figure. Sometimes it's tempting to buy bootlegs for how cheap they are, but I 100% prefer to save up some money and slowly buy some good quality original figures over having a lot of bootlegs. Now I have quite a decent collection and can't wait to make it even bigger this year!💜 Thanks for the vid, it'll help lots of new collectors who have no idea how awful bootlegs can be!
I've been there and I fully understand how you felt. I even bought my bootlegs as a set in a mall. In a mall where I never thought I could ever buy fake items 😩😩 anyway, my collections today are full of real ones. I only bought this fake one for comparison and I do agree that it's best to save up for originals rather than spending on fakes which are waste of money. 😊😊
I also have another video for newbies in toy collecting and since you're not new anymore, I hope you could share your thoughts in the comments there too. 🤗
th-cam.com/video/Oy9cVC_BAA8/w-d-xo.html
lol I always have a problem trying to connect the base to the body!! never wants to go into the hole in the bank of the nendo!!
On your authentic one?? Maybe it's the wrong end (・-・;)ゞ
Where would you recommend to get a real nendoroid? I would like to know since I’m not sure where to get a real one!
You could look for real Nendoroids directly from Goodsmile Company's website. You could also browse over Amiami or Mandarake. I would suggest to avoid places like eBay, Amazon or alibaba. there are tons of fakes over there, there's a high chance you would get scammed
@@JennySupremoI live in Canada is there a place I could buy from there??
The person who made the Tanjiro knock off did Tanjiro dirty
T R U E!
also the box of the fake is damaged
Oh you noticed. Although I did not include that with the box differences anymore since some authentic nendos do get damaged because of the courier sometimes.
Tanjiro Kamado hair is looks like bloodstained Nyuudou
I had to search what Bloodstained Nyuudou was so I googled it. I have my regrets in life 😂😂😂 it's some scary shit.

Awwwee thank you! If you're also interested, I will be posting a comparison of Nezuko too this coming weekend. Don't forget to sub if you ever wanna see that too 😉 and thanks for dropping by~
Do original nendoroids boxes have stickers that show they are original? like hologram stickers/gold stickers?
Some fakes copy the stickers so it's not the most efficient way to spot a fake in my opinion. You can spot a fake right away if it's declared brand new tho! Just check the tape they use. If it's a round tape and doesn't show any sign of damage or being tapped, then it's real. Fakes usually either use regular rectangular tapes or no tapes at all
I loved the video! Can I know where did you buy both of them? Thank you! 💚🖤
Sorry for the late reply oscar! The authentic Nendoroid was bought from an online shop named the phantomdibs. The fake one was bought from an online shop similar to amazon. ^_^
I saw in another video that the authentic nendoroid has the authentic logo on the stand. Does every nendoroid have this or only some?
The stand has a logo? I havent seen a stand with a logo so far. Idk if it's like that with every nendoroid. The base however is where I usually look at since most fakes miss the details.
Is the box for the real one, is bigger than the regular nendoroid boxes?
Wait. I didn't notice it was bigger than regular nendoroid boxes. I think it's not tho 🤔
I get my nendoroids from Charming sushi. They are partners with good smile and only sell officials licensed nendoroids
Is it a website?
thank you so much for those info! could you make a video tutorial on how to safely buy real official nendoroids too please?

The fake some is sort of taller
Why you don‘t mention the shiny silver sticker on the back of the original one? The fake one doesn’t have it 🤔
It's because Goodsmile confirmed that the stickers are not meant to confirm legitimacy. Some authentic nendoroids have those and some does not
yeah im broke as fuck im getting the fake ones-
its not to offend people its cuz i cant afford it
Eyyy. It's okay. If money is your concern and you really wanna have the figure, buying a fake is alright. But if you can, try and save and then buy a real one the future. It will surely give you a much feeling of satisfaction especially if you set it as a goal and also help the industry. 🤗
@@JennySupremo can you send me a link for zenitsu

As much as I want to help, I want to discourage buying fake anime figures. Tho I'm not judging anyone, I can't give out links for fake too. It's my way to support the industry.

I don’t know why you are underrated you helped me throw me fake Gilgamesh thx
You got a fake king. That would make him angry af 🤣
there are 2 easy spot for newbie collector to differentiate which is fake n real, first in every figure (nendoroid, figma, scaled figure) in real one you will find labels what company own (or publish) originally those anime, example at this tanjiro nendoroid box you will (and must) find shueisha label.
Second this is really help if you buy figure without box (secondhand so usually cheaper) just look at the figure base, real one must have their original publisher stamped either at bottom, side or behind the base, example at this tanjiro nendo the real one must have shueisha name stamped at his base.
hope this help and happy collecting
We’re can I buy real nenedroids? I got a fake one and it sucks
You can either purchase directly from Goodsmile or if you like cheaper ones, go scroll over Amiami pre owned items

The sole purpose of it is just to fill the hole of the extra part while it's not attached to the main body. Idk if that's the answer you've been looking for
I don’t really care if it’s fake or not I just would be thankful because I got to get it!
On amazon i feel like when the prices are high and normal its real, and when they become $20 its fake

I need to look out for this while searching for JoJo Nendoroids.
hey where did you buy the fake one?
As much as I wanna help you, I can't post it. To me it's like endorsing and encouraging buying bootlegs. If you still insist tho, there are surely a looooooot of fakes on the internet. A quick search would probably lead you to one. 😉👌
Hi! I wanna start a anime figure collection, I first one I want is a Haikyuu Nendoroid one. Which character should I get??
Hmmm the ones that I see on hand in my country are Kageyama, Suga and Hinata. It actually depends on you but I'd probably choose the characters closest to the heart. Nendoroids are expensive and small so you might wanna choose a character you really really love so when it arrives, regardless of the price, there won't be any regrets. 👌 Or else just buy hinata first since he's the main character 🤔😉
I just bought a sealed nendoroid (round sticker lol) via facebook marketplace. I'm 99% pretty sure its real, but if its not, I'll have learned my lesson. Thanks for the tips!
No problemo. I'm happy to be of help 😊 I hope what you got is truly authentic tho 🤞🤞
This is why I buy mostly Jojo’s bizarre adventure figures because fakes of jojo figures are almost nonexistent. For example most Medicos jojo figures do not have ANY fake version of the original (I Looked for hours). There’s only bootleg versions of Dio, jotaro, Bruno and abbaccio
when i first got a nendoroid i was so confuse and might have lost some peaces i was confused on the parts but im kinda doing better when i just found out you can make the poses thats on box its getting easier now i was rlly happy when i first got a nendoroid/figure this actually helped me out as remembering i got a fake nendoroid after waiting for months for it to come and some of the peaces broke but im still satisfied with it still
Well if you're satisfied with it then everything is okay I guess. ☺️☺️ As long as you're happy with it, then it's fine
Yeah…even if I were to buy a nendoroid for looks I would still go for the legit one ‘cause even if the bootleg might look good enough theres is no guarantee that all joints will fit
TRUUEEE! it might be more expensive but in return you get better quality and it's an official merch as well. It's one of the best ways to show our support to the makers of the series and the figure industry ♪ヽ(･ˇ∀ˇ･ゞ)

What's a good web site to find real a Nendoroid
Internationally, I suggest Amiami, directly from Goodsmile company, Mandarake, Solaris Japan. If you're from the Philippines on the other had, there are tons of shops I could recommend :) which country do you live?
There is a giyu tomioka Nendoroid in amiami it is for 50 something dollars Australian do you think it’s a scam?
Amiami is the most legit website out there. If it's the Amiami official website, definitely not a scam. That's a good price too.
can you please tell me where you got the original nendroid from? sorry if I didn’t spell that right.
I got my nendoroid from a figure shop in Facebook based in the Philippines altho unfortunately they don't ship internationally :((
