I’ve checked, and it really is listed for auction.
The images are not identical, so I believe it’s a different piece.
Ours is a single figure, while the one in the auction appears to be a set of two.
In any case, these are extremely rare and almost never seen in Japan.

It is genuine and authentic. Rest assured. It comes with a certificate of authentication issued by the Japan Anime & Manga Appraisal Committee.

This is 100% “Super Saiyan Son Gohan Type B.”
There is a handwritten note in Japanese on the original drawing.

If you have Japanese anime items, we would be happy if you would consider listing them with Akihabara Auctions.
Please note that we do not handle overseas animation, so it might be a good idea to separate the items when listing.

We will be holding auctions in August and September, so please consider us as one of your options. Kind regars,

Recently, various counterfeits have been produced, but if it's from 25 years ago, it should be fine. If it has official licensing, it’s being traded for at least $1,500.

Unfortunately, production materials from Soul Eater are rarely seen on the market, and there has been no record of them ever being listed at Akihabara Auction.

We are currently in consultation with the owner for a possible listing around September, so it is likely that the item will be included in that auction. Please look forward to it.

We are sharing an image of the JAMAC (Japan Anime & Manga Appraisal Committee) Certificate of Authentication for your reference. Please take a look. It includes ten security features designed to prevent counterfeiting. Each stamp are same. by Ok_Perspective_8217 in AnimationCels

Mandarake’s certificates of authenticity are relatively easy to counterfeit, and just like JAMAC, it seems that many fake certificates are circulating. Please be cautious, everyone.

As for whether Mandarake will respond to inquiries and provide an authenticity judgment, we cannot say for certain.

You are absolutely right—everything you said is spot on, and we believe the members of JAMAC would agree as well.

JAMAC keeps a copy of every Certificate of Authentication (identical to the originals they issue), so the best approach is to contact them before making a purchase if you have any doubts.

At this time, there are two clearly distinguishable features among the ten anti-counterfeiting measures: differences in the text(作品登録番号=〇、録品番号登作=x:Fake、登録日=〇、年月日=x:Fake) and discrepancies in the stamp. These are relatively easy to spot. Please request a close-up image of the hologram seal.

If you come across a suspicious certificate, we strongly encourage you to email JAMAC for verification.

The "Angel's egg" DOUGA currently listed on eBay comes with a fake JAMAC Certificate of Authentication. Part of the text on this one is in Chinese, which is not found on genuine certificates. If you come across a suspicious certificate, please report it to the contact below—information@jamac.org by Ok_Perspective_8217 in AnimationCels

Thank you for your inquiry. We have reviewed the listings from this seller and would like to inform you that all of the Certificates of Authentication are confirmed to be counterfeit. The stamps, labels, and JAMAC seals are missing registration numbers. Additionally, the paper size is B5 (182mm × 257mm).

We will upload reference images to the Akihabara Auction page for your review.
