It's been a while since I've come across a seller with good close-ups of a fake like this ^-^;;
Most are hiding this stuff now.
Via seller gordonlamlam on ebay:

This auction seemed to end on its own, but I saved the pics from it just in case.

Just double-checked mine because of this thread. I'm pretty sure I have a real one, but it's 1AM, I have an assignment due in 8 hours, my room is dimly lit, and I haven't slept yet, so I'm not sure if that's not my mind trying to avoid adding another heap to the level of stress I'm starting to feel... @_@

Now, don't stress out!
Those photos are pretty clear, and If I recall correctly, the authentic figure should have a TM (TypeMoon) Holographic sticker somewhere.

Well, it seems I prepared well for this occasion!

My box of this:

See the hologram?

MUCH closer up.

Even thought this came from Hong Kong, it clearly has the sticker on it, and Every one of the official ones from Hong Kong have the "Asia Goal" distribution sticker on the back. I really believe every one of the ones that have this sticker are real, but at least the TYPE-MOON sticker validates the figure as real.

Just to show you, here is a side-by-side of mine and the fake:

Real on left (of course), and gordonlamlam's on right (put it on photobucket to not let him know I linked his stuff)

As you can see, mine's the better of the two. Under flash, mine doesn't shine! ^^

Nice photos Deibi!
Those are very helpful! :D

And, yeah, Asia Goal limited is a distributor of authentic figures in China.

Good thing you said that Asia Goal is a distributor in Hong Kong, as the Eri Sawachika has that sticker on the back. I can take a photo of it should people need to see it...These types of things will be on my site when I get the chance to do it up later.

Those are nice pictures indeed. My sticker (and my box) looks just like yours, so I'm safe.

Well, my site will have everything I need to show the best figures. It looks like many will need to be taken away, as they're not originals. My site will be promoting originals only, so five or six are out, due to getting them from erroneous sources. :P

I should make a comparison on the site too, to show what to look out for.
