Spike : Fake vs Real

This is a little more obvious - the blue colour in the fakes is a lot darker. The plastic feel to it is also there. The fakes feel sharp -more edgy as opposed to the originals. Course that might be just wear and tear -but the big giveaway is the colour.

Re: Spike : Fake vs Real

Good call! on the back flap for Spike is the number 4. Lord Zarak has the number 2 and Gran has something but i don't know what. The fakes have the end of a sprue.

My Spike which I have had since I took it out of the box in 1987 is dark blue and has a zero on the back flap
