    I found this awesome fanmade TFA Daisy figure while trolling eBay:

    I actually can't believe how many TFA items are starting to pop-up, mostly likely bootlegs.

    Wow, that Ridley on speeder is pretty accurate, and only a week to customize. Can't wait for the real ones to come out in a year from now.

    Yes and no. Yes, because - Star Wars TFA! But no, because I then will start going broke. :p

    Hm, I'll be wary for that stuff, given the amount of bootlegs we'll be seeing. I do like the first one for explicitly stating that it is a custom and *not* official.

    I'll also be wary because it's so easy to go on spending splurges while on eBay. :confused:


    That said, I'm positive the poster is just a high-res screenshot from the teaser, but it still looks pretty good. At least on the thumbnail. Still not worth $20 though.

    Here are two other custom pieces. Source: http://www.imperialshipyards.net

    They aren't on eBay yet, but they should be there in a few days. Sorry if still considered off-topic!

    Those are pretty well done.

    Custom figures have come along way . . . the detail is scary good.

    I twetted out something about this earlier in the week. Fake hats have hit eBay. For now, the fake ones don't have a VII on the back too. Request a photo of the back if you're an interested buyer. We saw two fakes sell for $500.

    Thanks for letting me know. :)

    I re-checked and the back is not pictured. I inquired about it.

    That hat is definitely fake. Compare it to Lupita or Boyega's crew hat lol

    Yeah, pretty dirty. I'd still like a fake, just not for $500. Haha.

    I wouldn't even pay 50 for a fake. I reported the listing as a fraud.
