First off, always check the packaging. Real Hot Wheels come in distinctive packaging that's hard to mimic perfectly. Look for any typos or low-quality printing, as those are dead giveaways. Next, examine the car itself. Authentic Hot Wheels have a certain heft to them and the paint job is usually flawless. If it feels too light or the paint looks sloppy, you might be holding a fake. Lastly, the wheels and axles on genuine Hot Wheels are well-crafted and roll smoothly; if they're misaligned or roll poorly, be suspicious.
