Colors—The blue background color of the body armor in the real pin is a dark, cobalt blue. This makes the light blue lines “pop†and look like they’re glowing. Also, you can’t see the “pebble†finish behind the dark blue in his helmet or his body.
The blue background color of the body armor in the fake pin is lighter blue, but still darker than the light blue lines. The lines don’t “pop†as much and the lines kind of fade into the color of the body. Also, the lighter blue body color is more transparent and you can see the “pebble†finish on his helmet and body behind the blue background color.
Lines—The sliver lines on the black background of the real pin have different thicknesses. The lines of the concentric circles are thicker than the diagonal lines used to fill the inner circle. Also, on the left, the inner-most circle is thicker on the top half of the circle (near his left ear and the left side of his face) than it is on the bottom half of the circle (near his left shoulder and arm). Finally, on the right side, the circular line that appears only in the top half of the circle is thinner than the other circular lines on each side of it.
On the fake pin, all of these lines are the same thickness and show no variation between the concentric circles and the diagonal lines. All of the lines are the same thickness as the thinner lines on the real pin.
Back: Real pin first, fake pin second
LE writing—The back of the real pin says “Limited Edition 250†with a ‘zero’. The numbers are also the same height as the taller letters (L E, d, i, t).
The back of the fake pins says “Limited Edition 25o†with a lower case ‘o’. The numbers appear to be shorter than the letters and appear to be just a bit taller than the short letters (m, e, o, n).
