Bootleg Warning Thread
Just an observation from your photo... the matrix reads HRMXD-129 and the writing on the CD is HMR XD 129 - which should be the correct matrix. I think the difference to spot a bootleg version of this CD was already discussed in a topic on this forum.Yakish wrote:Beware! New Cloven Hoof boot with identical matrix
You right! I saw it yesterday later, but the main difference is engraved inscription in outer plastic side. Anyway seller is good guy and he accepted for full refund.Heavy wrote:Just an observation from your photo... the matrix reads HRMXD-129 and the writing on the CD is HMR XD 129 - which should be the correct matrix.

About Razor cd "Shotgun Justice", how come nobody has pointed out that matrix is mirrored (and visibile only on playing side) and that there are engraved letters in the inner ring too (like the Cloven Hoof) ?
Maybe there are two original pressings, one with engraved letters and one without ?
If not, it would be very easy to spot the two bootlegs with the detail of engraved letters only :p

It's not the writting itself but the font/style/positioning of the matrix text.Osmi_Putnik wrote:Can you explain why is that Nuclear Assault a Bootleg?
Matrix is almost identical with original...
CD FLAG 21 MPO 03 @
and in the picture:

Is this the difference between boot and original? Or there's more...
I'm new here and just learning

COMPACT DISC MPO FRANCE 60
I don't think they would be able to bootleg those engraved inner rings into a bootleg, but who knows.

For example I've had 3 copies of Nuclear Assault - Fight To Be Free / Brain Death split CD on Under One Flag and one had this and the others didn't. Everything else was identical.
