Houston,

Ok, I fed myself and feel better now. I think you confused what I meant, or I confused what I meant. Either way. I would imagine original bird's were made from 2 piece mold's, they had to be, as they are definitely cast and they have hollow backs. I think cheap hollow backs can be made, but they can be spotted and are being spotted for various reasons. The bulk of the fake's however look like the one thats posted on the Jerry Springer show in the community forum.

Post what you have, and we can go from there.

Reds,

I dont know, post the front and rear of the bird as best you can, and we can look at it.

Best,

Kris
