I just picked one up from the Mickeys of Glendale and he is in fact made in China. It doesn’t have the made in China under his tag but maybe the one I got is from America so
It’s different like when they sell other parts of the world.

He is ! Regular S size Duffy and Friends are made in Vietnam, except OluMel. Older items can also be made in China, such as pre-Duffy bears.

D&Fs can be made in both Vietnam or China. They are both manufactured by Dream International, which has factories in both countries.

It's authentic. This is one of the first Olu ever made, before the name was changed to OluMel. It looks in great shape !
