            Card looks real to me. Conan still has his hair band on it seems

              It is quite real and appears to be original factory seal. Note, however, that the bubble has yellowed and part of the card has faded.

                The card looks real from the photos. The price tag residue makes it even more convincing to me - not just the fact that it's there, but the way that it looks. The way that the bubble is attached, the folds in the cardboard, the uneven light bleaching in the orange of the card, everything I can see really do make it look real. If that's a fake card, it's the best one I've ever seen.

                  Yep. There may be a lot of repro cards out there, but none of them are made by diabolical geniuses. They may fool you in a bad eBay pic, but not in your hands.

                    The clear giveaway for mine is that there is no peg hole.

                      Looks like the real deal to me.
