Weapon X overload Liquid Blue tag

Post by miggys_picks »

I can’t tell if this is legit or fake or even bootleg. The printing is way better than any bootleg I’ve seen but the tag is throwing me off. Even though it is the correct size for a large liquid blue
Pit to pit: 22”
Length: 27”

If this is fake then we are all in big trouble! Convincingly, pulling off a fake of an intricate print like that would be nearly impossible.

The tag doesn't match the one in our fake archive. What concerns you about it? The texture?

The only thing that concerns me is the I seen reprints be done really well of this exact print and it’s the tag seems so crisp to me I just got suspicious. It’s really hard for me to see the difference from an authentic Liquid blue tag with a fake

Here's the fake LB tag, though this is at least a few years old, still waiting for the next generation.

The colors of the swirls are off - in the fake version they are all too dark, and the texture in the swirls gets muted.

The 22" does seem a touch big for a chest, BUT it also looks like it's never been washed?

Maybe it wasn’t wash from the original seller. I’ll double check the measurements when I get back home, but that would explain why the tag was so crisp to begin with

I talked to the seller and he told me he didn’t wash it before and had it for a while and it came in great shape
