Well, I'm helping out a friend since she's collecting figmas. Well, so far, I haven't heard of it having bootlegs. But who knows, I'm wondering if there are bootleg figmas. Are there?

Thanks for the info zer0!
Too bad, most of them are Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya series...

I advise to buy from credible sellers in forums and ebay. As for stores I recommend GT and Wasabi toys just to be safe.

No offense to the Chinese, but Figmas are almost destined to be bootlegged. They're made in China and when I learned that I was kinda disappointed and amazed at the same time.

Yup, I agree to that, even the gashapons are made in China.

I heard Best Toys in GH sells fake figmas, but not mixed with the originals. Anyone can confirm this?

So far I think that's just the Saber Lily one.
Hype + Limitedness + made in china = high chance of piracy for easy profit. XD

Is the saber lily of the same quality like other fake figmas? I'm now really curious about it.

Well, yes. Though it is a bit more expensive.
