Hi all - new member here.
I attach some pics of what appears to be a quite old Steve Caballero skateboard. The top pics are better than the one blurry bottom pic. I’ve spent a good 20 minutes online trying to find something about it and found nothing, but I did find this forum site.
My attempted upload (only 3 pics):

Gray deck, green dragon and yellow letters on top, aliens and a ninja on the bottom. It has a lot of peeling paint. Shape is odd - seems old.
Any ID and/or value help is most appreciated. Thanks! |

Well, that sucks.

Just found this by searching for vintage alien ninja skateboards. Bottom is the same design.
So - assuming it is fake (it appears to be), does it have any value?
In full disclosure, I didn’t buy it, but almost did. Is currently $40 at an antique shop near me.
Thanks! |

Brilliant noob post!
I’d say eBay will give you a pretty fair assessment of worth |

| Although it could be the rare and highly sought after Caballero Alien Ninja 6 ply pre concave. Would need more pics to verify though |

Ok ok. It’s fake. I had no idea there were fake skateboards.
Thanks for the info, even if sarcastic.
Should anyone be interested in this fake skateboard, I’m happy to pick it up and ship it to you at cost. Just let me know. |

Crazy amount of fake out there. Even the likes of George and Stacey are punching out fakes these days. Been a while since a noob has taken some light hearted humour well. Well played! |

| This noob doesn’t get offended that easy. Sometimes you find a diamond in the rough, other times you find silvertone celestrium. (That shows my age) |

Some of those bootleg-clunkers are collected, but it's kind of a cheeky-treasure. I wouldn't expect high dollars, but seriously, that bottom.
Aliens!!!
Good luck, ya never know, you may pull in enough bucks for some beers. |
