This guide introduces several general authentication methods to help collectors identify counterfeit DIMOO products, avoid imitation items, and make more informed purchasing decisions when seeking authentic products.

Multi-Dimensional Authentication Matrix

Authentication Checkpoint	Authentic Product Characteristics	Counterfeit Product Indicators
Official Anti-Counterfeiting QR Code	For versions equipped with official anti-counterfeiting verification, the product can be checked through official channels, and the verification page and results are consistent with the product information.	QR code cannot be scanned, redirects to a suspicious website, or displays verification information inconsistent with the product.
Product Labels and Related Information	Brand logos, series names, product descriptions, and label information are clearly presented, with an overall layout consistent with the corresponding official version.	Distorted brand logos, disorganized text, missing product information, or label content inconsistent with official references.
Clothing, Accessories, and Product Construction	Clothing, hats, headwear, and themed accessories feature shapes, quantities, and attachment methods consistent with the corresponding product design, with components fitting together naturally.	Missing accessories, distorted decorative elements, loose components, or clothing and accessory details that differ noticeably from the official design.
Overall Figure Design	Head size, body proportions, hairstyle contours, and overall posture are consistent with the official design of the corresponding product version.	Unbalanced head-to-body proportions, unusual hairstyle contours, distorted body structures, or noticeable differences in overall posture compared with official reference images.
Facial Details	Eye size and placement, eyebrow and eye alignment, nose, and mouth details are consistent with the corresponding design, creating a natural and balanced expression.	Misaligned eyes, abnormal proportions, blurred facial features, or noticeable differences in facial expression compared with the official design.
Paintwork and Coloration	Skin tone, eye, hair, and clothing colors are consistent with the corresponding product version, with natural color transitions and clearly defined paint edges.	Noticeable color discrepancies, uneven eye paintwork, paint bleeding, peeling paint, or rough color boundaries.
Materials and Manufacturing Quality	Materials are consistent with the corresponding product type, surface finishes appear natural, molded details are clearly defined, and seams and connection points are neatly finished.	Unusual material textures, rough surfaces, prominent burrs, deformation, conspicuous seams, or unevenly joined components.

Step 1: Verify Official Anti-Counterfeiting Information

For DIMOO products featuring official anti-counterfeiting verification information, it is recommended to check the verification label on the packaging as the first step.

• Domain Verification:After scanning the QR code on an authentic product, users should be directed to POP MART’s official anti-counterfeiting verification page. Verify the complete domain name and redirection path rather than relying solely on the visual appearance of the URL.
• Verification Results:Depending on the verification status and scan history, authentic products may display messages such as:
• “QR Code Scan Result: Authentic and Valid – First Scan”
• “QR Code Scan Result: Authentic and Valid – Multiple Scans”
• “QR Code Scan Result: Authentic and Valid – Maximum Scan Limit Exceeded”

Important: A verification message alone does not conclusively establish authenticity. The domain, redirection path, verification result, and other product characteristics should be assessed together.

A QR code verification should not be treated as the sole basis for authentication. The product itself, packaging information, and other relevant characteristics must also be examined to support a more comprehensive assessment of authenticity.

Step 2: Examine Appearance and Overall Craftsmanship

• Product Labels and Related Information:Authentic products typically feature clearly printed brand logos, series names, product descriptions, and label information, with an overall layout consistent with the corresponding official version. Counterfeit products may exhibit distorted brand logos, disorganized text, missing product information, or label content that does not match official references.

• Clothing, Accessories, and Product Construction:Authentic products typically feature clothing, hats, headwear, and themed accessories with shapes, quantities, and attachment methods consistent with the corresponding official design. Components should fit together naturally. Counterfeit products may exhibit missing accessories, distorted decorative elements, loose components, or noticeable discrepancies in clothing and accessory details compared with the official design.

• Overall Figure Design:Authentic products typically feature head size, body proportions, hairstyle contours, and overall posture consistent with the official design of the corresponding product version. Counterfeit products may exhibit disproportionate head-to-body ratios, unusual hairstyle contours, distorted body structures, or noticeable differences in overall posture compared with official reference images.

• Facial Details:Authentic products typically feature eye size and placement, eyebrow and eye alignment, nose, and mouth details consistent with the design of the corresponding product version, resulting in a natural and balanced expression. Counterfeit products may exhibit misaligned eyes, abnormal proportions, blurred facial features, or noticeable differences in facial expression compared with the official design.

• Paintwork and Coloration:Authentic products typically feature skin tones, clothing colors, and other color details consistent with the corresponding official product version, with even paint application and clearly defined edges. Counterfeit products may exhibit noticeable color discrepancies, paint bleeding, peeling paint, blurred edges, or rough paint application.

• Materials and Manufacturing Quality:Authentic products typically feature materials consistent with the corresponding product type, natural-looking surface finishes, clearly defined molded details, and neatly finished seams and connection points. Counterfeit products may exhibit unusual material textures, rough surfaces, prominent burrs, deformation, conspicuous seams, or unevenly joined components.

The characteristics outlined above are common indicators for preliminary visual screening and may not be entirely consistent across all authentic products. Assessment should be based on comparisons with official product information for the same series and specific model, combined with anti-counterfeiting verification and other relevant authentication factors.

Pop Mart may periodically update its production processes, materials, packaging designs, printing details, and product finishes across different production batches. As a result, authentic products from different production periods may exhibit slight variations in color saturation, QR code placement, font sizing, card texture, or verification page layout. These differences do not automatically indicate that a product is counterfeit. During authentication, such variations should be assessed against reliable references from the corresponding series and production batch, alongside other product characteristics
