Check this desperate dan out then view sellers other items Erbert has the wrong colour shoes and all the others look a little on the shiny side for me what do you think Cinta?

I would leave this item well alone

I'd take a guess that this is a fake, and a pretty bad one at that.

It looks like someone tried a copy, then used the wrong type of paint, and it would explain no box.

Either that for someone has been polishing to hard

I wondered if somebody had put like a clear varnish over them hense the shine. Or they have possibly been painted over with a goss paint either way they just don't ring true.

Defo fakes :( The blue is the wrong colour, and if you look closely at the bases you can see some black marks in the ceramic resin. They would have been rejected from our factory immediately. I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole.

Just looked at the others

- shouldn't Minnie have RED hair instead of GREY. I know Minnie is over fifty but come on...

I might buy one of the piece just to have a look, I have a very curious nature.
I must also appologise for my effort at spelling GLOSS earlier in the thread spelling isn't my strongest point.

It has to be said they look terrible

i dont know who the seller is trying to convince... but old collectors will see the difference, and new collectors certainly wouldnt buy them

.. or they might, for a laugh :D

I'm going to buy one just to have a closer look, see if they have been painted over or just total fakes.
