Fake LEGO Deadpool spotting at MCM Comic Con London
Brick Fanatics heads out into the field to find out if fake Deadpools can spot a real LEGO Deadpool minifigure
Clone brands are frustrating for [geot exclude_country=”United States”]LEGO[/geot][geot country=”United States”]LEGO[/geot] fans. As they become more prevalent, there is the risk that cheap knock-off imitations will work their way into the secondary market, meaning that collectors have to be able to identify which minifigures are real, and which are fake.
Armed with two Deadpool minifigures – one being the genuine LEGO article, and one being a clone brand imitation – Brick Fanatics heads to MCM London Comic Con, to see if the fake Deadpools cosplaying at the event can tell the difference between the two.
Will these con going geeks be able to identify a real LEGO minifigure?
