Issue pulling docker image from k3d managed local registry - docker

Question

I am creating a registry:
k3d registry create registry.localhost --port 8087
a registry.yaml file:
mirrors:
'localhost:8087':
endpoint:
- http://k3d-registry.localhost:8087
and a cluster:
k3d cluster create dev -p "8000:80#loadbalancer" --registry-use k3d-registry.localhost:8087 --registry-config registry.yaml
and am running the following to test it out:
docker pull nginx
docker tag nginx:latest localhost:8087/nginx:latest
docker push localhost:8087/nginx:latest
kubectl run nginx --image localhost:8087/nginx:latest
which produces the following output:
Using default tag: latest
latest: Pulling from library/nginx
Digest: sha256:943c25b4b66b332184d5ba6bb18234273551593016c0e0ae906bab111548239f
Status: Image is up to date for nginx:latest
docker.io/library/nginx:latest
The push refers to repository [localhost:8087/nginx]

pod/nginx created
however, this consistently results in an error pulling the image:

any idea what I'm missing here? based on the documentation here, I am expecting this to work. I've gone through every related issue I can find online with no luck, would really appreciate some help here.
