If the base lacks these markings or displays a different maker's name, it is not an official Sideshow product.

Check the fabric components for fading, staining, or loose stitching, noting that original accessories like the gaffi stick and blaster rifle should be present and intact. Look for paint loss on the molded details and verify that the figure retains its original articulation without excessive looseness.
