Ok guys, I just got this Max pin from eBay. I had seen Laz's thread before about the scrapper Max. So I wanted some feedback on this one. Paint looks good, so does the back but... its silver and the weight feels weird.

The seller does accept returns, So I'd like to get back to them asap.

I've also got these guys sitting in my trading book. I got them in a lot sale before I knew about fakes and scrappers. They were individually wrapped, both have scrapper warnings on them. both are highly questionable. I don't want to trade them without knowing. the main issue is that I had two Mary Poppins before I knew about fakes and I traded one. So I'm worried I unknowingly gave someone a crap pin.
Any help would be great.

I can't say about the first two since I have never seen them in person, but the metal color on Max is very, very suspicious regardless of the front. Every time this issue has come up on DPF the fakes are always silver. As to the last pin, the very first pin I thought I got that was a "good" one (LE100) was that same pin. Of course, I got the fake. By your pics, the paint dips are there, brush strokes, etc. all the signs. I will be the one to say that the Mickey/Tiny Tim is definitely fake, sorry ;_;
