Speculation on Brickset about it being a fake due to the shoddy nature of the photo. It would be nice to have another boxer to fight the first one. More winter mittens for Shane!

yeah reading the comments there are some good comments that point to this being a fake. Brickset is usually reliable but somethings dont look right. For instance no new molds. only repaints of existing ones. someone pointed out that the uniforms look like the Beijing styles. the uniforms also look like decals as you cant see the waist/torsos on some of them

The box and bag of these minifigs look pretty realistic. As for the image of the figs, I'm not so sure.
