Official Clear Green "Gameboy Cartridge" Case

I've found this Green Gameboy case while out hunting and it is Quite curious as it is an official licensed nintendo product and not a unlicensed mock up case. Any one know if this case was part of maybe an official Gameboy Accessory kit or maybe an exclusive color bundled with s particular video game title?

The only difference between an original cases is a tiny "PRIDE MADE IN MEXICO" On the bottom. which makes me think PRIDE maybe could've been an accessory line in the 80-90s or something?

    I think I recall seeing multi-color packs available back in the day. Oddly, I think that was when all GB games still included the clear ones.

    Maybe it was in the NP catalog, but these do seem familiar.

    The Green color is almost identical to the Extreme Green Colored N64 Controller and Exclusive Gameboy pocket

    I own 5 gameboy cases, and one of them is this one. I keep my copy of DK in it. No idea how I got it. Curious as to the origin as well.

    Yes. I had some multi-colored packs back in the day.  I remember blue, purple, maybe orange, but I never saw this color before.

    After Nintendo stopped including them I believe I saw Pelican branded ones, but these say "Pride" like so many official NES/SNES/N64 clamshell cases.
