principalbricks Posted September 24, 2022 Parts that don't have a LEGO logo drive me crazy, as I avoid high-quality fakes slipping into my collection... One such part is the Jewel Gem. In recent years, it has finally received an embossed LEGO logo on its side. But the older version doesn't seem to have a LEGO logo anywhere? Some of mine have an air bubble inside, and some do not. Could someone who is sure their old Jewel Gem is genuine/from the box please let me know if theirs have an air bubble inside? Or any other tips on how to tell a genuine Jewel Gem from a fake one (old mold)? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickbuilder0937 Posted September 24, 2022 Most of my collection, maybe 75%, has bubbles while the rest don't. I did notice that all of them have a slight indentation on the bottom where the molding injection point is. Maybe other brands would be flat? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peppermint_M Posted September 24, 2022 Most other brands look a little cloudy, that has been my experience with mimic parts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
principalbricks Posted September 29, 2022 Thanks all, it's reassuring to hear. I did believe some of those with bubbles in my collection definitely came in the box, but just needed to be sure! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Takanuinuva Posted September 30, 2022 I wonder if my trans black gem I got from bricklink is real or not then. As I got mine for a low price. But the seller kept increasing the price as more were sold. Eventually getting up to 100. And they were the only one with that gem. So it might be a rare misprint or a Legoland part. Hard to tell if it's cloudy since it's trans black. But if it is fake. it doesn't bother me that much. I got it for real cheap. Just another gem in my chest of every trans color the gem piece has been made in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
