[QUOTE="laurencedyer, post: 488457, member: 5990"] [color=#FF4000]Hoth playset Special Buy Sticker used for Overlay test 3 and 4.[/color] [ATTACH type="full" alt="Overlay example used 3.jpg"]45790._xfImport[/ATTACH] [color=#FF0000]Font identity.[/color] With the results of the [color=#FF4000]thick font [/color]vs [color=#FF4000]thin font [/color] Overlay test demonstrating that the text does not line up at all based on either the sticker size or the text itself and that the fonts and font sizes are different both the Palitoy and Suspect fonts were next determined. [color=#FF4000]The next Image is of the fonts that were used between the two packs. [/color] The Palitoy is on the left and Suspect is on the right. Both packs use the same typeface although the suspect is notably different due to the poor replication it actually appears thinner. It has been confirmed by an expert in printing that although the appearance looks different the Suspect is of the same font. The only font difference is that of the 99p as labelled on the image. [color=#FF4000]The style of the fonts to the two labels have been replicated with ease as demonstrated.[/color] [ATTACH type="full" alt="35438348_1964772943813238_2605770698731290624_n.jpg"]45791._xfImport[/ATTACH] [color=#FF0000]Font Ink comparison.[/color] [color=#FF4000]The Ink of each label was observed for both the Palitoy label and the Suspect label.[/color] The next image compares the Special Buy form the top of the label of the Palitoy labels ink above that of the Suspect labels ink. The Palitoy ink has a thicker finish to the edges of the letters & numbers with Ink build up present which is clear to see. This ink build up can be demonstrated by comparing both label finishes to the letter[color=#FF4000] B[/color] from [color=#FF4000]Buy.[/color] This comparison of the finish to the letters can also be easily noticed from the straight edges of the letters. The Palitoy edges are not straight where as the Suspect is defined with straight edges. [color=#FF4000]This different print of the inks.[/color] [ATTACH type="full" alt="20180529_191519.jpg"]45794._xfImport[/ATTACH] This bumpy and straight edge finish of the letters is demonstrated this with the side edge of the ‘A’ having a bumpy finish for the Palitoy ink and a straight edge from the Suspect ink on the next two images. The inner corner of the triangle of the ‘A’, the Vertex is also a good example of the ink finish as the ink finish does not give the vertex straight precise corners to the Palitoy ink whereas the Suspect has. [color=#FF4000]Palitoy A Ink.[/color] [ATTACH type="full" alt="38085079_2008872002736665_1355556674357690368_n.png"]45795._xfImport[/ATTACH] [color=#FF4000]Suspect A Ink.[/color] [ATTACH type="full" alt="38139479_2008901712733694_8524995730161532928_n.jpg"]45798._xfImport[/ATTACH] The next images shows the comparison of the word [color=#FF4000]FOR[/color]. The Palitoy Ink can be seen to have bled during its printing process with the Suspect Ink not showing the same characteristic.
