I’m looking for some more information on these theme decks. Every one that I’ve seen listed for sale on-line and every picture I can find of the box shows the hanger tag on the back.
A LGS near me has a ColdFusion deck sealed with no hanger tag. Did these come in the Neo Genesis: Preconstructed Theme Deck Display boxes or does my LGS have a resealed deck?

Photos would help and i’ll check reddit later in case you sent any there, but by Neo era the packaging had moved to generally including hangtabs on the plastic wrap and i believe they were no longer separately selling cases of individual decks meant for hangers only. It isnt unheard of for hangtabs to come off over the past 20 years but there is usually evidence of it (not always).
Id look to make sure the plastic wrap is the same material as normal and that the seams and folds are correctly placed. Packaging is generally all over the place with decks during wotc era so oddities happened.
A quick search and here is a video that shows an unboxing of one that seems to not have the hangtab, so it does happen. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lA1DChB71sA

I found that same video. I took some pics today, interested in your opinion because this is a chase for me at the moment.

Looks alright.
Here you can see some blemishes on the plastic that correlate to where the hangtab would be. Red is likely glue residue marks and orange is possibly plastic stretching. Id guess that it came off at some point.
