Dr. Fate DC Superhero Figure : Real or Fake?
Am image of a very believable Dr. Fate DC Imaginext figure has popped up. My first encounter of it was on the Facebook group, Imaginext Generation. For those of you who are members, you can check out the post here. New comers to the group will have to join first.
My personal take on it is that it IS REAL. Aside from wishful thinking that fact that we are seeing a Black Lighting accessory recast in translucent yellow means that we have something authentic OR a very good customizer. However, if said crafter was that perfect with his prop, I would think he would have taken greater care in cutting the cape, cleaning up paint lines and glue marks.
The eyes also seem to have the pad printed quality, which can also be done by custom aficionados, but not everyone has access to a pad printer. Of course, the photo quality is not crystal clear and the eyes could be meticulously hand painted, or even edited in Photoshop after the fact.
All these things considered, I would say we are looking at an authentic, soon to be in stores, figure.
