Hot Toys does not issue official certificates of authenticity for individual MMS figures, so verification relies on physical inspection rather than documentation. Genuine figures feature crisp paint applications, precise seam lines, and high-quality fabric textures, while counterfeits often display blurred details, loose stitching, and incorrect box printing. Compare your figure’s packaging and sculpt against verified images from Hot Toys’ official website or reputable collector forums to identify discrepancies. If the item lacks the manufacturer’s holographic sticker or shows significant quality deviations, it is likely not authentic.

Examine the sculpt for hairline cracks, particularly around the joints and helmet, as these are common stress points. Inspect the fabric armor for tears, loose stitching, or discoloration, noting that the material is prone to wear over time. Check the magnetic accessories and helmet attachments for secure fit and verify that the original packaging and documentation are present, as these significantly impact resale value.
