there is a picture of it in dark green color, I dont think the picture is real
(edges too sharp, mold point, etc) and should be deleted

It does look like it has been heavily manipulated. It looks very similar to the
dark brown image (orientation, pip on stud, shadows) but cleaned up and recoloured,
maybe put through a photo-realistic filter.

It doesn't look like the dark brown image that I can see.

No, it's just an image with too much light. It's reflecting off the white
base and background and washing out the edges.

Seriously?

I question why this would even be brought up as an issue, considering there are
zero of this piece for sale, and the few that have sold in the past were most
likely part of a rare batch.

The seller who added the picture, Brock's Bricks, https://store.bricklink.com/Brock?p=Brock#/shop
, probably added the picture years ago because he came upon a rare batch in this
color and there was no existing image in the catalog.

Maybe because it gives the impression that they exist. The photo does look like
it has been manipulated. It is way worse than other photos.

It is definitely real, and that is a real photo of the part.

Cheers,
