I've seen this. The purchaser heavily implies that the one I got will be in the box on the left. I suppose that there are several variations of any given bootlegs. All things considered though, the one on the right is pretty good, and in a few areas, even has a better paint job.
To be honest, if you remove the labels saying "fake" or "real" I wouldn't be able to tell them apart.
You'd definitely tell the difference by feeling them and how they were made I can tell you that much. I've never bought a bootleg figure (I probably should if it looks funny enough) but based on buying things like fake Bape and Yeezys that China doesn't sell the most quality merch. You could get away with it if you just had it as decoration but no doubt it wouldn't last if a kid got it

What's interesting is that the bootlegs look better than the real deal. Sometimes anyway.

That not only makes it harder to tell but it also makes you kinda think "fake? so what?"
