I used to think that those without the stamp on the foot is the bootlegs too but these 'special' type only appeared on the 1st set of ayupans, the Arena 2002. Never had I saw these special types on other batch of ayupans except the Arena 2002.

So I think that those are the 1st batch of ayupans where avex haven't decided to do any branding on the ayupan itself. It just doesn't make sense that bootlegs only appeared on the 1st set and not continuing the production.

And a compare of both the special type and the branded type, the material and painting is the same. You get shitty paint job on the branded type too.
