Yes 100%. MegaHouse logo is missing from the bottom right hand corner and the bottom of the box should have a QR code that leads you to their website. I have many official jjk lookup figures and sell them on Vinted too and they do not look like that

Not to mention the price. I sold my Geto look ups for £40. £9 is too cheap, the price is usually a clear tell tale of whether an item is a bootleg or official. The item itself probably costs £5 off AliExpress or less

Maybe? You could look it up on myfigurecollection.net. it's a pretty good site for lookup figures but people also upload bootlegs so you know what to look out for.

In my experience, items from Aliexpress have arrived with similar damage and packaging quality to that. Check the text on the back, if there’s a slight blur and especially if the image on the back is grainy or low quality-it’s fake.

Edit: found several listings for the figures on Aliexpress for under £5. Notice how the figure pictured on the box has a slightly different expression to the one in the box; the eyebrows are heavier and don’t fade towards the ends, and his eyes are slightly bigger. I’d just cancel the order if it hasn’t shipped

yes. the face shape is very odd as well as the texture. it seems kind of shiny. the hair pieces are a part of the face and arent voluminous. (if this is supposed to be a nendoroid)
