Isn't it just a repro someone made, and put in a PAL housing?

Usually the B&W labels are multi-lingual ones from Canada, but this one obviously isn't. Then again, Colecovision label variations isn't my are of expertise.

There is alot of repro stuff on the bay, and frankly, it annoys me. If someone is making a reproduction, then they need to be upfront about it. People who dont know any better will be getting duped into thinking it is original. I am not against reproductions....but I am against repros that are being sold as originals.

But why do a repro of Mr. Do? That would be like making counterfit Air-Sea Battles.

It is the Canadian release - you can just make out "Printed in Canada" on the second line of small print - as CV Canadian releases by Coleco towards the end of their run often included the regular English label, but sometimes (although not always) of lesser quality (not in color, not glossy) with the French language label loose that the end user could apply if so desired.
