I don't know but, I do remember a few years ago the same thing happening. I number of Series 3 figures were coming from Japan, and there were about 8 series 3 Ultimate Warrior (on English cards) which up to that point were very rare - it was strange. The only good thing it did was drop down the prices of some of those figures. Not sure if they were fakes, I hope not.

The most silly question: "Fake?"
I mean I hope you realise they were made in China to begin with. The days that toys were actually made in the U.S. go back to the 1960s and even then Barbies and Hot Wheels were already made in Hong Kong...

Part of it is also probably due to American fans trading for Japanese figures and the sellers looking to make money off the rare American figures they got. |

Japan has many toy stores specializing in selling vintage figures.
