 Disclaimer: This is not my photo. I copied it off a public Facebook group. Anyone (ry_dark specifically) have any thoughts on this? He says he got it free as a gift... which certainly tells me it isn't real. Someone would have to be a giant moron to give this away for free. I mean, even if you don't know wrestling figures... you have to know that it's old and would do a tiny bit of research on it before giving it away. Maybe I'm assuming too much, but I can't see this as being real. And that's without even looking at the amazing card back and the questionable positioning of the moon. |

The moon is in the wrong place, going by the pics of the 3 I've ever seen, is he passing it off as a real one then?

Judging by the pic I'd say it's a custom

I think this is a custom.And from the card back the guy must be a pro.
If it isn't a custom then we have a factory error.The most possible.....

I sent Peter some pic's to post of what it should look like on that fb page.
Clearly it's a custom and if Andrew is trying to say he has 15 years experience and knows the difference between real/fake then it severely hammers any credibility he has in my eyes. The customiser was trying to make the moon look like how it is illustrated on the back of the card. The pre-production samples do not look like that at all tho.
Think he was just trying to cause a bit of a stir.

I called the guy out and the authenticity of it and he was trying to tell me he has 15 years experience which is complete bull. Dont post on a public forum and then say taking offers and then when I say its fake get all riled up about it. He got duped and I pointed that out. plus would a $7500-$10000 figure come with that crappy of packaging. I gave up in the convo because that guy is a complete moron.

He 100% said he had "15 years of experience and knows the difference between a custom and the real deal" and had asked for offers on it. Then insulted anyone who said it was fake. Was just seeing what some of you guys thought, as I am an LJN guy and not a Hasbro guy. |

That's completely laughable in comparison to any known Moon Kamala.

Agree with the other posters - doesn't look right. His response to people doubting it is suspicious as well.

Yeah, it definitely looks like a re-seal. If he has '15 years of experience', it must be in an entirely different line of figures.

Yeah any credibility he had just went out the door. After he told me he had 15 years I gave up because that just made him look ridiculous and he must have 15 years of experience in my little ponies. He has an awesome autographed poster collection but hell if he thought this was real then I can only imagine some of his posters if he didn't get them personally signed. He has a ton of autos that would be very awesome to have on a poster. Like the wrestlemania 5 poster with all autos and others.
