Note, while most of the below differences are correct, the female fig I got from
Kit had the correct shape head, and more importantly, when I pulled the hair off,
the stud on the top of the head had the correct LEGO font on it.

Maybe it's possible that Lego has 2 different suppliers now?  If not, an
HK/China/Japan knockoff is getting pretty good, at least on the larger ones ;-)

Hi everyone,

I would like to give some background on those maxifigs Kit is selling.
I happen to have one of the same maxifig that he is selling (I bought from
Japan) and the following are my observations (I have those displays at Toy R
US as well - managed to convinced some Toy R US in Asia to sell them to me -
not cheap though).

1.  The one kit is selling is slightly smaller in size than those you see at
TRU (by about one inch).
2.  The color of it is different as well - brighter red, blue, etc.
3.  The head looks a little out of shape (just don't know how to explain it)
4.  The facial features (eyes, mouth line etc) are different.
5.  The base of the legs are different - TRU maxifigs have sort of like a
hanging hole (like those for pictures) whereas

I will post the a photo of those 2 maxifigs together when I get home tonight.
I cannot say whether because of the about whether the maxifigs he is selling
is genuine or not, but just thought that some of you might want to know it
before you buy.

Dan
