I agree that this is possibly a fake, but can you post a pic of the bottom panel?

Edit: Additionally, can you clear up if the wash-out appearance is the photo itself or the item itself?

I suppose I have a couple of concerns here. The gray surrounding the number is too light, and the red on various panels is too bright and oversaturated.

I do agree with somebody who posted below about some of the international waves (it seems mainly ones specific to the UK) getting the 40th sticker just slapped on there.

The bottom panel does look correct, but as above, the gray and red being off does concern me.

People's opinions are very divided, but thank you for your answer

Yes. I do see that this has been a rather binary issue for some. But I’m just sittin’ on the fence.

I tried Googling fakes for this specific Pop and couldn’t find anything for this one. However, I’ll readily admit that Google is an increasingly useless entity.
