How do the normal and slim NGPC differ in appearance?

I'm looking to buy another one on ebay, I'd like to get the newer slim model. Most of the auctions I'm looking at do not specify which version it is, so could someone tell me what to look for?
Thanks

I think Slim is Colour, the Fat is monochrome? So the writing "Colour" should be showing at the top of the screen. Not sure tho. I touched one loooong time ago.

You're thinking of the neo geo pocket which has a black and white display.
The are 2 models of neo geo pocket color, the later model only released in Japan.

Here are some pictures, if someone could tell me which model this is I'd appreciate it.

The writing used on the word "Color" on the top right of the screen is different between the two models. I can't tell you right off the top of my head what the slim writing looks like, but I would know it if I saw it.

I think the pic you posted is just a regular NGPC.

That's a black and white NeoGeo Pocket (not a NGPC).

If you want a normal 'fat' NGPC, drop me a PM as I have a couple that I was going to put on t'bay. I haven't got any extra slimlines for sale at the moment.

Also, the writing in the top right of the screen on the NGPC's is as follows -

Fat NGPC - COLOR in block capitals
Slimline NGPC - Color in script (lower case)
