It would be really had to tell if it's the real deal or a high-quality fake by seeing a few scans online - you'd really need to check it out in person.
However from what I know of them Cloud City Collectibles have a good reputation and I've seen ads from them urging former Kenner employees to get in touch if they have stuff to sell. I imagine they'd be able to supply some sort of pedigree on it. And it's not unheard of, I mean they were made, even if there are only a handful...
Incidentally - bidding's at $3000 already and the reserve has not been met...
: Do you guys think it's one of the real ones? To my knowledge, there were only 2 or 3 produced. They should have some tears on the back of the card where they were torn off the wall at the toy fair.
: I have seen "fakes" of this figure before. I don't know, if it's a real one, it'll be a fortune. =o)
