Please note up front that all of my items are personally purchased by me at the store! TARGETI NEVER purchase from convenience stores or online. I have proof of all purchases and there is a picture on this listing of the barcode and box. Please do not order this item if you are going to claim that it is fake and give negative reviews before even trying to communicate positively.

Also, if your NEEDOH seems to have an odor (usually occurs in enclosed NEEDOHS such as cubes that are enclosed and not open to air) this is due to Off-gassing:

Because the toys are highly popular and manufactured rapidly, they are often sealed in their packaging too quickly before the newly formed plastic and gel materials can properly "breathe". This causes residual VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) to become trapped inside the wrapper. They are considered safe as they are made of nontoxic thermoplastic rubber.

Odor Descriptions: Users frequently describe this smell as being similar to nail varnish, rubber cement, or gasoline.

Also if your box looks slightly different: Factory Packaging Differences: Manufacturers often produce different packaging batches for retail stores, online warehouses, or promotional giveaways, meaning two 100% authentic items may have different fonts, colors, or box styles. Thank you!
