Seems a lot of guys have bought from all these China Sellers, probably we need to tell them. Thanks for heads up!

i dont think all the ones on ebay right now are originals, they are repros or recards.

hello. just joined the forum and was curious to see if there was a topic on this figure. i also purchased this figure on ebay about a month ago and was skeptical if it was real or not. i checked the yojoe site and turns out there was one previously made (YOJOE.COM | Carded Storm Shadow (China)). But after receiving the figure, it does look like a repo. Either way it's a nice figure but i feel ripped off. I'm gonna see if i can score more of these items with my next trip to Asia.

I read recently how a big batch of storm shadow were produced without hasbro's permission using the old molds. I guess they'd be somewhat real since they were using the original mold, but fake since its not official? Anyway. Aside from them being pristine white, the thread points out how you can tell the fake ones from the silver rivets used. the original 80's release ss has a different rivet from the one thats being cranked out and passed on as a "vintage" recently.

we have to be very selective when we deal with china sellers,there have been many cases of fraud.

Most of the vintage products from China are fake - like 99.9%. I never buy any vintage or high price item from them, if I were you.
