Anyone ever bought one of these suspect Mao dunes from ebay? You know the ones, that the seller has no feedback and happen to have both a Mao and a Mrs. Mao listed with out any of the accessories...Just wondering?

Happy everyday!

Ah well. At least the bootleggers picked a cute Labbit to attempt to copy.

Apparently people have been bootlegging Frank's old posters, too. Grrrrr.

yes, I have a bootleg Mao and Mrs Mao set I bought on the bay a couple of years ago. I was (and am) really happy with both of them. And before you berate me for not supporting artist, I was a kozik subber for years and this item has been loooong out of production and I never would have paid more than the $100 i paid for the set. Frank and KR have plenty of my money, I have no regrets buying bootleg figures.

Thanks for replying Ted, I've been watching them on Ebay but i wouldn't want to pay more than the $100 for the set. I'm guessing they didn't come in a box or with accessories?

They actually did come with boxes, the box has a glossiness that the original does not (I also own an original mao with accessories and box). They did come with 1 watermelon, but no book that I can recall.

As long as you are happy with your purchase, I guess that is the main thing :)
