I got this from trading with a CM and it was one of our first trades. I noticed later that the front of the inner blue line is faded and the design on his shirt has thicker lines so you can't really tell what it is. I'm sad because I think this set is really cute and I wanted to try and get them all but if there are so many unauthorized versions out there I figure my chances of getting real ones are pretty slim...

Is there any way you could take a picture of the back for us? :) That would help us know for sure.

The colors do look off (eyes are more blue, shirt is darker) and the shirt design is not as define as it should be... but the edges are smooth (that's a good sign)!

is this pin glossy? does it have any paint dips? I cannot really tell in the picture.

Says pin pics...

Does anyone have this pin who can compare?
 
I think I have the scrapper. I will upload a picture shortly so we can compare.

When your family tries to buy you pins on eBay for Christmas, you end up with an art project lol
 
From the picture you included of the front I would say, without seeing it in person, 80+% it is counterfeit. The wide unclean lines of the metal, along with the lack of clarity on his shirt design are two indicators for me. The big one though to me is that the whites of his eyes appear light blue (the same color as the lines of the ride vehicle). Or at least your picture shows them that way. The overall pin looks flat, especially in the gray area, but without seeing the pin I cannot tell if that is the just the camera angle.
