Bootleg Warning : figma Dead Master (Max Factory)
These bootleg figures are made illegally based off the original versions without permission from Good Smile Company, and hence we unfortunately cannot offer any support for these bootleg figures. There are also many cases where these bootleg figures still feature the official logos of Good Smile Company or the companies we distribute for, however these logos are also not used with any permission. Always take care when buying goods online.
Below is one example of a bootleg figure, please note that is is only one possibility. You should always be on the look out for anything suspicious.
Also note that there can be bootlegs of various figures, not just the examples shown on this website.
Left: Bootleg Version / Right : Official Version
The official version leaves a fair amount of white open on the eye, where the bootleg version has much less white space and the green runs unevenly.
The official version makes use of painting techniques to create a cast-iron look for the scythe, while this is hardly noticeable on the bootleg version.
The bootleg version is not properly painted inside the eyes of the skull. The jaw is also not properly lined up.
The official version contains protective plastic sheets to prevent colors from rubbing off. The bootleg version does not include these plastic sheets.
