3D-printed replica-style FIFA World Cup trophy model

This item is a golden-colored figurine stylistically consistent with the FIFA World Cup trophy. The user claims this is an 'Originál world cup trophy', however, visual evidence suggests this is an unverified claim. The object's surface displays prominent horizontal layer lines and a distinct texture characteristic of Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printing rather than the solid 18-karat gold and malachite construction of the official FIFA trophy. The material appears to be a yellow or gold-tinted filament, likely PLA or ABS plastic, with a metallic-looking sheen. The design features a stylized globe supported by two human figures, resting on a base with green bands. The green bands appear to be printed or painted plastic rather than the malachite stone found on the Silvio Gazzaniga-designed original. The scale appears smaller than the standard 36.8 cm height of the official trophy, as indicated by its placement in a hand. There are no visible official hallmarks, engraver marks, or FIFA licensing stamps discernible in the image. The attribution as a 3D-printed replica is based on the visible manufacturing artifacts and material appearance.

Regarding the item submitted, identified by the owner as an 'Original world cup trophy,' my analysis is based solely on the provided visual evidence. Based on what I can see, I must treat the claim of it being a primary artifact as a hypothesis that is not supported by visible manufacturing indicators. The surface displays horizontal striations and a texture characteristic of Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printing. The material reflects light in a manner consistent with metallic-tinted PLA or ABS plastic rather than 18-karat gold. I can't verify from a photo the exact polymer used, but the visible layering suggests this is a decorative replica rather than a solid-cast precious metal object. The green bands at the base appear to be integrated plastic or topical pigment rather than inlaid malachite. The value estimate of $15 - $35 reflects the secondary market for unbranded, 3D-printed novelty sports memorabilia. If this were a licensed replica produced by an authorized manufacturer, the value might increase to $50 - $100. Conversely, if it were the 18-karat gold original as the user suggests—a claim I cannot verify and which appears highly unlikely given the visual artifacts—it would be a priceless cultural artifact worth millions. To move beyond this working assumption, a physical inspection would be required to verify weight, material density, and the presence of any official FIFA licensing marks. In the current market, demand for 3D-printed hobbyist models is stable but limited to the cost of production and novelty appeal. Without provenance documentation or evidence of official manufacture, it must be valued as a contemporary decorative model 'in the style of' the FIFA trophy.
