    Have been looking to get a G1 Bombshell in box and came across one. Box looks very good and does have a Target $4.97 price tag on left side which I assume means the box is authentic G1. The part I am concerned about is the bubble insert. Are the original bubbles supposed to have a white front as well as a grey / whitish color backing to the cardboard or should the backside to the insert be a tan / brown color? I saw another G1 bombshell for sale awhile back and the bubble insert was the light / white color on the front but the back of the card had a tan color to the cardboard and I know that one was original. This one has white cardboard, the front is the gloss white with clear bubble and the backside to the bubble / insert is a light grey color on the cardboard.
