Bootlegs are fake merchandise pieces based on a series, usually its real merchandise. They can be told apart from the real due to quality, lack of official labeling or stickers, a poor paint job and price.

Bootlegs are often a product from developing countries, such as almost every country in Asia. Or sold online.

  • Motto patisserie keychains: These keychains were based on an official Gachapon collection. They have incorrect paint jobs.
  • Patisserie Onpu: Has a poor paint job.
  • Chinese dress keychains: It has been speculated that the heads were taken from another figure and attached to a different figures body.
  • Ojamajo melody: Like the above, the heads were attached to figures from Mermaid Melody series.
  • Princess tutu ojamajos: Same as above.
  • Doremi singing plush: Once squeezed, this Doremi figure will sing "Butterfly" by smile.dk.
  • Dancing fever ojamajo: Like the Chinese or ballerina keychains, these were made by the makers of butterfly and bathing suit figures.
  • Teenage Onpu: Made by the same maker of previous keychains, this one shows Onpu with an older body attached to a chunky lavender clasp.

  • Bootleg Parara Tap: This looks like the real product, but there is no Bandai logo. Instead, it has misspellings and Chinese writing on the back of the packaging.
  • Bootleg Sweet Poron: Same as the product above, but it also comes with hair clips and a comb. People can clearly see that the text reading "parara tap" in Japanese that was not erased. It also has the Dokkan versions of Doremi and Hana-chan on the packaging.
  • Bootleg Jewelry Poron: Instead of having the Ojamajo Doremi logo, this product has Chinese writing on it. Silver nail polish is included. The instructions also translated the batteries as "dried battery", while the products name roughly translates to "Little Witch Magical Store".
  • Bootleg Hana Compact: Made by the same company as the Jewelry Poron, the LED in the center is replaced by a translucent button.
  • Bootleg Cologne Tap: Same as above, it comes in a clone of Hana's compact box rather than its proper packaging. The pink gems are colored purple, with some decorations on the top being colored pink instead of being left white. A button that was not present on the original is in the center.
  • The Rummy Wand: A recolored Picotto Poron.

  • Wall scrolls: If using real artwork then it falls into bootleg. But if using fanart/unofficial artwork, it does not.

  • Bootleg Thai DVDs: A series of 4 Thai DVD's which feature all episodes from each respective season. The DVD might be official as-is, but due to the use of fan art and characters from Kasumin on the box art, these are considered unofficial.
  • Bootleg English DVDs: A series of unofficial DVD's sold on Retroanimation.com, featuring episodes from the anime series, Na-i-sho, and Comedy Theater. The dubbed versions of episodes were taken from the 4Kids dub of the series, where as the subbed versions were presumably taken from the fan-subbing group Doremi-fansubs.

  • Mix and match apron: Incorrect paint job.

  • Ojamajo Doremi stickers: A set of 100 stickers, which uses official art, and the rest are taken from the official dress up paper dolls and fanon.
  • Ojamajo Doremi Coloring Books: A series of coloring books that were sold on Amazon by independent publishers. In addition to variations in other languages, at least 4 different books are known to exist.

AVOID THESE AT ANY COST. THESE CONTAIN STOLEN ARTWORK.

  • USB Flash Drive has been spotted on Amazon. Like the wall scrolls, it can be mass-produced easily to be made of official and fan artwork. It is unknown if that really works or not.
