kishidan69 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Have always been wanting to get an official Lego NBA minifigure, decided to put in a few bids for this one. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/LEGO-NBA-Minifigure-Kobe-Bryant-Los-Angeles-Lakers-Mint-Loose-w-Stand-/121154437140?pt=AU_LEGO&hash=item1c355e0014 Just looking at the photo, I assumed it is official, and not a basketball fan but do know of Bryant, so assumed he's no.34 on the Lakers team. Decided to do a bit of research today before bidding ends - I now believe the photo does not show Kobe, it shows Shaquille O'Neal's torso, and the head maybe belongs to Tony Parker - can anyone confirm or advise otherwise? Much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt1147 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 That looks like the shaq figure but the face looks the same - seller maybe has wrong torso on it? Kobe is #8 like this one: http://bit.ly/1blGymb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope this helped! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDarkness Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 It is actually a fraudulent listing. That being said if people haven't been bothered to research what Kobe's jersey number was at the time.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said if people haven't been bothered to research what Kobe's jersey number was at the time.... Yeah, I know - live and learn. Have contacted the seller to request that my bid be cancelled - I suppose if I were to buy one, might as well get a proper official one.

kishidan69 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 Someone else has now put in a higher bid, about 30-40 seconds after I messaged the seller.......hmmmm.....I think I'll just leave it at that and walk away. Thanks again all for the heads up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I was about to say - Kobe is not #34. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
