Sideshow Collectibles does not issue certificates of authenticity for this statue, so verification relies on physical inspection. Check the base for a clear, sharp Sideshow logo and the specific SKU 1306752, which should match the original packaging. Authentic pieces feature high-quality paint applications and solid construction, whereas counterfeits often show sloppy detailing or lightweight materials. If the item lacks these markers or was purchased from an unverified source, it may not be genuine.

Sideshow Collectibles has not officially announced a discontinuation for the Ponda Baba statue, indicating it remains in active production. You can currently purchase new copies directly from the Sideshow website or through authorized retailers. Stock levels may vary by region, so checking current inventory is recommended.
Sideshow Collectibles does not assign official numerical grades to their statues, so condition assessment relies on visual inspection for manufacturing defects or transit damage. Check the base for cracks, the paint application for runs or chips, and the sculpted details for stress fractures, particularly around thin limbs or protruding elements. Document any issues with high-resolution photos under neutral lighting, as these serve as the primary record for resale value and authenticity.
