    I also got myself a replica Mr. Gold and honestly i'd highly recommend getting one. This is one of the few instances where it makes sense to go with a fake one instead of cashing out on the real thing. I also bought a custom display case to go with him and anyone that does see my replica one, i make sure to tell them it isn't the real deal.
    To the untrained eye it's hard to spot the differences. The only obvious difference as mentioned is the colour but some may prefer the stronger gold colour on the fake.
    Edit: i also swapped out the hands and the crystal for real lego pieces.

  • @Britdarg

    I think seeing both in video form doesn't do the authentic figure justice since it just reflects the light and looks worse for it, so I can't really say. However, speaking just as a collector, Mr. Gold is probably one of the less cool chrome figures to me personally speaking only from a design perspective. It's something I wish lego would do again in CMF's, I understand not doing chrome anymore since it's expensive and not eco friendly, but a Mrs. Silver for series 20 would have been really cool. Still, a very cool figure that turns 10 this year wowzers

    The real version has more of a platinum gold look than a yellow gold bootleg look. I worked at many of the big nyc marketing / advertising agencies during my career & they actually call the promotional marketing tactic LEGO used the Willy Wonka contest approach. Many brands use it now. It’s always cool to see an official mr gold. Cool video. 👍

    I wish they brought the Mr. Gold figure back, but not give him that chrome finish and do more the glittery gold finish instead. That way people can still have their chance at getting their own golden man and bring back the nostalgia, but also not make the super rare gold chrome versions of the figure be unaccredited.
