Lion-O Fake???
 

I need some help guys. i have a lion-o from when i was a kid brand new never opened but im not sure it is real. how can you tell if it is or it isnt? Someone gave it too me for my birthday a long time ago. Any help would help.

post pictures and explain why you think its fake.

This thread doesnt work without Pics............ :D

The color and also the points of purchase.

Sorry i forgot to add them. i hope someone can shed some light to this. i appreciate all the help. thanks in advance.

I'm not an expert but I remember those boxes. Im pretty sure your safe.

Looks legit to me. If it's fake, then it's the most detailed fake I've ever seen, ever, of all time...

100% real thats awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where did you get it that you thought it was fake? Crack heads?

I got it for my birthday when i was a kid. Since i already had one i simply never opened it. My doubt was because some of the painting on it was pretty sloppy. And with proof of purchase not saying how many points its worth. And also the address for the thundercats club is outside the US.

It is probably fake then.............but I will give you 5 whole American dollars for it.

The bottom left hand corner says ljn, that is a snowflake border, it speaks of battlematic action, as far as the sloppy paint job this was a common problem with alot of 80s action figures where you wondered if they were even trying to get the paint apps correct.

I dont know my friend, if this is a forgery someone went through an awful lot of trouble to make it look that good.

Perfect thanks. All of you helped out a lot!! I learned a lot more than what i started with. Now the real question is what is it worth??

I already started bidding.......just kidding check eBay see what the winning bids are.

Id go on a limp and say maybe its fake because of the sloppy painting on sword and chlaw shield, but maybe thats how they made it.

You got it as a kid and you still thought it was fake? How long ago was this?

This is not a fake...question is...why did you not open it up as a kid if I may ask.....???

There was also a UK club.

This looks like a later release though, which might explain the differences. The first release didn't show the new Thundercats at the back.
