| I sold a ninjago headgear to a customer, and he claims it is not lego as it didnt
have a lego logo. The headgear was used, so there might be a chance that a non
lego part has been mixed in.
Does anyone know if there exist copies of 98133PB04 ? Should the original have
a lego logo? And in case it doesnt have a lego logo, how can we distinguish a
fake vs a real?

We distinguish by the other indicators like plastic quality, print quality, and
other mold and sprue marks.
I can try and check this part later today if I can find it.

I just checked
in White and Red and they both have the LEGO logo and number in
micro printing around the inside of the stud.

I will check at work tomorrow, but I am fairly sure that these were initially
produced without LEGO logo and number. I know that this is the case for other
Ninjago headgears. Also some of them were initially produced in another plastic
quality, and looks and feels differently.
You most likely have sent a genuine LEGO part.

For the 30177 wrap, LEGO changed at some point from a material called ABS/PA
to a material called HV-ABS. They also changed the mould at the same time (or
around the same time) and the earlier does not have logo or number. When you
compare the old and the new wraps, the old looks dull and "fake" compared
to the new ones. I think this change were done around 2012-13 if I recall correctly.
I am not sure if it is the same with the 98133, but I think that is very likely,
and I think I have more data on it at work. Send me a message if I forget to
check tomorrow.

I have checked the 98133 that I have, and all have the logo and number, though
in very small print. These were produced from 2012; I think that at least some
of wraps that I checked were from early productions, so I think that they probably
have had the logo and number all along. I have not found any other information
that indicate that these were ever produced without logo and number, but it is
of course possible.
