Custom Palitoy DSD

[Darth Wensleydale]

Worryingly good, from a distance anyway :?
I hope this doesn't reappear as 'genuine' with a blurry photo :evil:

It is not really hard to make copies like this and he is one of the better customizers. He would never sell this as original, but the guy who buys it might. Usually auctions like this do not last long as ebay sees this as copyright infrigement and people normally report these items to ebay as violation of their counterfiet policy, then ebay shuts down the auction.

Good point Jason.
Got to say it does look quite decent from the photo.
I usually find it's the quality of card that gives the item away as fake.

I've bought a few customs/fakes (all but one knowingly) and in every case they have looked pretty good in the photo and to be fair they look good in person but you can tell they are fakes once you get close. I suspect this is probably the same.

Although, that will hardly stop someone from selling it as genuine, not offering returns and only taking money transfers etc. :roll: :twisted: :evil:

 

[Darth Wensleydale]

Its definitely worth flagging these better customs up as most of the Palitoy ones I've seen before are usually easy to spot before you even read they are fake.

its been removed already...

 

[Ron]

These custom palitoy are selling for a lot off money
