Notes

Bootleg copy of the US issue, bad quality manufactured.
The clear plastic case shows rough edges, the inserts are just 1-sided handcut b&w paper photocopies .

Almost the same imprint except :
- the lack of "Qwest" logo on CD.
- the "G13-99-343-00/V.J6 A05-2" code on CD
- a lightly difference on the back card, the word "the" is the only word of the 3d credits line.
