I was just wondering, about the possibility of 'Knock-off', figures?... I purchased a figure, from E-Bay, namely, a 90mm, 'Polish-Hussar', by 'Pegaso'. This figure has the 'Elite Series', tab! on the box. However, on looking at the 'Base', there is no, ' Manufacture Stamp' of any sort. Is this normal for this series?... Granted, it does not look to bad, maybe a bit soft in detail etc. Just wondering!

Lots of previous threads on this.

There's a dedicated forum here for reporting recasters http://www.planetfigure.com/forums/report-piracy.55/

Thanks, Enion. Had a look!.... I had a gut feeling about this figure, and it is more than likely a copy... The saving grace,. is, I spent, 15 quid !......It could have been much worse. My guard is now up! Again, thanks.

Most of the pirated figures are coming out of Argentina & China !! Prices are good but, the quality is terrible - lots of putty needs to go into them - not to mention detail is lacking!! I should know - been burned a few times by these guys. Just call me toast!!

Thanks, 'Toast'!..... I will be more aware of a sellers location in the future.
