There's usually a bur in the molds or something else that they don't care about as long as they capture the item enough to be passable.

Man your "wisdom" about this hobby has no end, doesn't it?
But you keep hitting that laugh emoji like you are laughing at people in arrogance. You'll make a great politician though - just pretend to know something and no matter how stupid you routinely look just stick, stick, stick with it.

The Chinese market is replete with knock-offs. And they aren't stealing readily manufactured toys. Instead they take a few, or an actual mold and then recast them. They steal I.P. That last point was for everyone else here having the discussion - there's no educating Teemu.
maybe some of you guys are just F-ing stupid....Chinese sellers get official NECA stock too (laughing at the stupidity of your accusations)

Oh and "bootlegs" just don't happen overnight.....the poster who posted his Mondo and Muckman figures ARE official NECA pieces Mr. Rocksteady!

Toy bro got his figures from ebay china too.
You guys are crazy if you think everything are bootlegs.

NECA & Super7 needs like a year to manufacture figures meanwhile
you guys think bootleggers can counterfeit and distribute in less time.
Go ahead and convince yourselves if it's not at Target, it's bootleg
eventho there's no Target in other countries. I'm not the one who needs convincing, I love my Muckman.

What do YOU provide?
Drop the condescending elitism, you are not as great as you think you are.
Always basing things off your ass with no evidence while trying to sound
smart with economical terms that you probably learned from your online degree
course nobody is impress you can put words together.
I on the other hand have something you don't, I have no reason to look
up to you, pathetic.

I buy my products locally and/or direct and I have no problem waiting. Never had any issue with flaking either.

Dear IMJ,

Congratulations on being the first person to go into my ignore list.



There have been many annoying people, but none as annoying
and useless as you. I have no idea why you think I'm constantly seeking
your approval or need your knowledge in everything TMNT when all you do
is spit BS. And to prove how little I think of you, I just blocked you.

I'm not this way to everyone either.
I respect many dromers..... Powder for example, for their seniority
and knowledge in our niche hobby, mikey0 for his constant news
update, just to name a few. But you, you're just a POS.

You can revenge-block me too, or continue your condescending attitude (what a guy)
towards everyone including me, but I will never know 'cos I blocked you first.
Sorry I wasn't able to return the infatuation you have for me, maybe if you started treating
people better you would finally get the respect you desperately crave.

What do you mean? The color is chipping off? That's usually a sign for bootlegs, no?

He is (Elite) Rocksteady and just as dumb as him. Anybody that thinks that the figures selling right now in China are bootlegs and not official pieces, are just uneducated idiots. Hasbro sells official pieces in the China market too, I guess they must be "bootlegs"
