The boots almost always have that color shell (I don't think there are any real games with that shade of transparent plastic). I'm almost certain that all authentic Metal Slug 5's are in a black shell (just like all the last SNKP releases: KOF03, SVC, & SSVS). So unless someone took authentic boards out of a real one and shoved them in that crappy shell (what for?) then it's obviously a fake. Don't buy it.
