Rear rivet looks a little bit suspect, the rivet looks smaller in diameter than the basehole, may be my eyes?

It's very hard to tell. It's not a first casting, from the photo the rivets look within the boundaries of many of my common models, unfortunately it's very difficult to see the rivet posts on these. There's slightly more wear on the baseplate lettering but that could have been caused by gentle play on a carpet, because the baseplate is so low. What is the paint finish like in the hand?

It looks pretty consistent and honest to me, I would like to see bigger pictures taken outside in the daylight.

There are Two chissel-type dents around the outside edge, but apart from that, the rest of the model's detail it looks good.

When we discussed this model on Lefora, I saw no reason to doubt its authenticity. Based on the above set of photographs, I see no reason to change my opinion.

A clear close-up side/angled view of both base rivets could help.
