Was this from Hellkommando in Thailand? If so it may be a bootleg...

Whaaaaat? I didn’t know there was a boot of this, holy fuck.

How to spot the difference?

Straight from my DMs with badamerican:

"specifically look at the lack of detail on the HellKommando version under the Tiamat Logo. You can also see how he copied a thin strip from top to bottom on the left hand side and pasted it over and over to "extend" the design, you'll notice a repeating pattern"

Credit where credit is due, hellkommando did a pretty good job with this bootleg, looks reeeeeal similar to the og

Lol yep, i've always gotten pretty good deals from HellKommando, but this one in particular seemed a little too good to be true haha, not too upset, still a kickass patch for the low price i paid for it, will most definitely put it to good use!
