Grapes chaser has been faked as well. I get a sense that the chasers are easier to fake.
I also had a fake Paw Print - I *think* it was Pumba, but my memory is not serving me 100%
The Scar paw also has a counterfeit. I had one last July when I was there and compared it to a real one. Colors on the front are slightly off, counterfeit is thinner, edges aren't smooth like real one, back chroming is very rough and the back stamping is also not consistent with the real one. I did take pics, so if I can find them, I will post them.So, on my recent trip to WDW (from 5/13 to 5/27), we discovered that the 2017 Hidden Mickeys from WDW have been scrapped. Not all of them, just these:
WDW/DLR shared release of the Villains Chins - Ursula, Scar
Attraction Icons: Figment, Dinosaur, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Dumbo
Fruit: Yellow and Red fruit (that's the lemon and apple)
Chaser: Ursula Chin and Figment Icon
While the pins were glossy (very), there was underfill, so it looked like soft enamel rather than hard (very obvious dips) and the backs were different. The words were more smooshed together and were larger too (specifically the words that said Hidden Mickey Pin x of 5), maybe by 5-10%.
I think they scrapped or counterfeited all of them
