[QUOTE="Chac96, post: 467578, member: 9798"] Hi, I'm new to the forum and have only just recently started collecting so as you can imagine all the information on fakes and toy toni's is a bit much for me! As i understand one of the figures faked was ROTJ palitoy 65-D back imperial stormtrooper (hoth). From what i understand one way of telling if a figure has been resealed is by looking for a waffle seal which I cannot see on the card I have bought. Although it does look like it has been heat sealed by a press and not an iron as on the bubble (right) there is a clear seal line where part of the bubble has been sealed and part not. I was wondering if you could give me some help on how to tell and whether or not these have to have a waffle seal to be real. The figure has been graded but i know AFA did grade fakes by mistake. I have attached some images and any help would be much appreciated! [/QUOTE]
