Hot Toys does not publish a public database for verifying MMS 423 authenticity, so you must rely on physical inspection. Check for the specific "MMS423" engraving on the head sculpt and the correct Hot Toys logo on the packaging and accessories. Compare the paint application, fabric quality, and accessory details against high-resolution images from the official Hot Toys website or authorized retailers. If the item lacks these specific markings or shows poor craftsmanship, it is likely a replica.

Examine the face sculpt for paint application errors, particularly around the eyes and lips, as these are common quality control issues. Inspect the fabric garments for loose threads, stitching defects, or fabric pilling, which significantly impact value. Check the hairpiece for stray fibers or improper attachment, and verify that all accessories, including the blaster and lightsaber, are present and undamaged. Refer to the manufacturer’s certificate of authenticity and compare the item against known production variations documented by the collector community.
