Bootleg Laser Stickers?

While checking Ebay for good deals on authentic nendoroids, I came across this auction posted by a Hong Kong seller: Ebay

Seller claims that because the figure boxes have a laser sticker they are authentic. I only own two nendoroids at the moment, and I feel like discussing Good Smiles Companies stickers so that I can be familiar with each one they use.

Here is a close up on the sticker that is on those two boxes above.



The seller claimed that the figures where authentic in his auction, though personally, I have never seen that sticker before. Could anyone reading this please provide me with some information on that?

Two different stickers I see Good Smile Company use are the following:

Notice that the sticker on Lights box above (image taken from HobbySearch) is different from the one on the box the ebay seller has. So far there are only two legitimate stickers I know of that GSC use on their boxes, and one in question. What is the reason for GSC using more than one? None of their figure boxes distributed to the United States by AAA Anime have either of these stickers correct?

Tough to say, isn't labeled stickers pose to give products that they are authentic and rightfully own to its developers.
