    I thought I know a few things about AFA, but apparently I know nothing.
    Now, I'm confuse with AFA color labeling:
    Red Tape = MISB.
    Blue Tape = Qualifield Grade for MIB (Sealed content w/ opened box)
    Green Tape = Loose figure.
    Black Tape = ? (I see it as MISB and MIB)

    As I was randomly looking at my AFA 80 Blaster, I realized one of his tape is missing. I went to back to check the old auction listing and the seller did mention, sealed on one side, but somehow I missed it. It got AFA Black Tape and was graded on Jan 2010. If that's the case, shouldn't it be under the Blue Tape/ Qualified Grade?

    My AFA 85 2004 Predaking also has Black Tape. I checked Ebay and saw other sealed both side tape with Black Tape too. So, Black Tape means what?
