I'll install my scanner software later on today, and grab some scans of this varient I picked up an hour or so ago. It has that dual colour lable(text), and includes text not shown on the scans in the RG on here. The end lable is also slightly different from those shown. Also, the item number is different from the ones shown. I'm guessing it is still an R-3, like the others....but I thought I would share what I found.

I've seen a few labels like that before too. I think it's from the manufacturing process. The ink seems to fade on them after some years and it ends up like that. You see it on some Atari text label carts too.

I saw the thread about that...I was mainly refering to the added text on the main label, and the slight variation on the end label, from what is in the archives.

Here: 1 variation

Hmmm....both of them are listed as the same label.....
The one I have, also lists the year of release...which isn't listed in the description, either.
