Hello fellow TT lovers, I'm a recreational player and I'm looking to buy new equipment in order to advance my play. I already decided to buy a Wakaba 2000 or 3000. The thing is I've never bought any new paddles, and the paddles they offered me (view photos) seem like um... fake?

I say so because the photo of the player in the packaging seems a little blurry. The only one that looked legit was a 2000 with a different player featured in the packaging (different to the one in the lime green background). But since I have never bought any paddles, I don't know how to discern whether or not the important parts (rubbers, blade) are legit. I hope you can help me out. Greetings.

Thanks for your help kukamonga. So what do you think, fake or not? Because the "made in china" text is written in the original as well... look:
