Pls refer to below picture:

Do you notice that each of the 4 boxes below, having a golden "cat" sticker, if having this sticker, then it's genuine.
Maybe I'm stupid to only know this, where I learn this from my friends in HK...:D

Check all boxes for this sticker for every new purchase.

I'm sure this also applied to many of its boxed figure for Banpesto product.

dude u r right in a away... BUT BEWARE that people does fake stickers as well. the fake one is more 'golden' than the original one.

and it's not a cat :P i heard they are bears... some kind of bear hehe

and not only Banpresto items have the sticker, those license under Toei (i think) will have the sticker

AND, some might dun have the stickers, but it is still consider real because the stocks can 'leak' out from the manufacturers and selling at a cheaper price, and people selling would categorize the stock under 'factory stock' without the license of that sticker company.

It is alway "safe" to stick to these 3 factors:

1) Toei sticker (moon bear? my guess)

2) Box text must be not too simple.
(Year, manufacturer, made in China, reissue, children warning for age limit, etc)

3) The figurine art job around the eyes.

My apologies. What's I'm about to type is not related to the topic. Where can I find this set of DBZ Banpresto statue?
