Hi,

Only one digit is written on the hair and hats (there is no logo and copyright).
Are these original Lego parts?

Regards
Alexei

Hi,

surely, these parts are not official parts. They are badly finished and not very
neat.

On the contrary, I am pretty sure they are lego. Rubber parts (such as Dobby's
head) almost never have a lego logo. Older hair and helmets many times also did
not have the lego logo but merely a number.

I think it's safe to assume they are all genuine lego.

Thank you all for your help!

It seemed to me that the top hat were fake, now I will pay more attention to
the quality of plastic.

Maybe someone has the information from which year Lego necessarily writes a logo
or copyright?

I am 95% certain those top hats are Lego. I have gotten tons that look like that
over the years; too many for them to be fakes.
