A major downside to the popularity of OriginalFake designs is the overabundance of pirated and imitated goods out there. So there is always a great apprehension when an one-of-one OriginalFake merchandise appears, as in this Glow In The Dark Dissected COMPANION Figure by KAWS. The images originated from a collector in Shanghai, who claimed to have 1 of only 2 produced in the world, with the other in MEDICOM TOY’s headquarter in Tokyo. This Dissected COMPANION underwent a full GITD treatment - the intact side on left emits a green glow while the exposed side on the right produced a eerie blue glow. But the question remains, since there is no way to verify or authenticate this particular figure, is it a real OriginalFake? Or just a superb pirated copy?

I checked this figure personally when I was in shanghai last week. Condition is as good as an official one. It even shown “MEDICOM TOY 2006 CHINA” on the bottom of foot.My friend told me this figure was made to test mold when released dissected companion in 2006.
I think this one is not authenticated by OriginalFake..so it should be a fake one to kaws and his company…but for collectors,It’s definitely a real one. :)
