Calpoly Pamona Nursery - California Reapers, or not?

Back earlier this year, I ordered a little cutting labeled "California Reaper" with pictures that look like a beautiful lightly colored yellow/white/green/orange Carolina Reaper. What came out was something closer to a ghost pepper, but with said colors:

( don't mind the late season color, I was hoping to finish these out but they may not )
 
 
It's out of season so the original product page w/description and pictures don't exist except for a tiny thumbnail:

Any help in figuring out where this plant decided to fruit, I'd be super duper happy.
 
It's a nice variety.  All kinds of different pod shapes and sizes on the ones I grew this year.  Moderate production.  Will grow it again.  
 
Well from what I understand, the pods don't start growing mostly a certain phenotype until they're stabilized or nearly stabilized and since everyone seems to want to release their crosses before they're "done"....

I've always wondered what that all meant. Thank you for the explanation!
 
Looks remarkably similar to one I grew that was supposed to be a Devil's Rib but wasn't... Red ones were devil's rib the others I have a few guesses.
