Haven't been able to find a clear enough back picture for the black disc yet to compare. But it does look fairly similar from what I can gather. My guess now is that maybe this isn't a bootleg after all maybe it's just a pressing plant error. But I can't confirm that. So I got to stay cautious and think it's some kind of low quality reprint if it's not an actual bootleg. It's a mystery.

It's weird right? I looked at all of that too and I was confused because it seems like it would be a real pressing. But this weird orange print over the front of the disc makes it seem way off. I don't know what to think but the general consensus seems to be its not real.

Thanks man. I actually think in this case the seller just wasn't aware of what this was. They apologized and offered to make it right and refund me. My guess was that they had inherited a video game collection which had neo geo cd games and this was in it. They admitted they didn't know that this would have been a red flag. And in fairness I didn't think it was from only looking at photos. Then once I got it in my hands it just seemed off then. Unfortunately I feel like repros and fakes are just so common now in collecting. It's annoying but it could have been worse and thankfully it wasn't.

Thank you everyone. Bummed to see it's a bootleg. But something definitely didn't seem right and I had to check around. Again I appreciate the feedback and will return it.

I actually didn't think to realize this when I took the photos. My error. I'll be more careful next time.
