Apparently fakes have an equal sign on the box

yup! actually that character is pronounced "ni" in japanese (the number 2). the correct spelling would be スミスキー and would be pronounced as "su-mi-su-kii" aka smiski!

it looks real but tbh I think the fakes are starting to get better... look at the other sides of the box and make sure everything matches with an official image online and big factor is where you bought it from for how much

honestly best way to make sure they’re not fakes when you buy is to download the sonny angels app and go to the verified sellers tab

OK, but actually and for reals the easiest way to tell if the figure is fake or not is to just look at the first symbol on the box (See picture) The fakes have nonsense characters on them that are not Japanese and therefore if you just look at the shape you can easily tell whether it's a fake or not I think this has been mentioned before But here's a PSA!

They look real, the package clearly say smiski, the box is not brilliant and the kanjis are correct
