Hi TMNTGal,
I just visited your website for the first time and am thoroughly impressed!!! When it's finished, it will undoubtedly be one of the single best toy sites on the net. Just recently at the GI Joe and Star Wars forums I visit, several people have mentioned a desire to find a good TMNT Toy Website and I am now glad that I will be able to refer them to your site. Thanks.

TMNTGal, I noticed that you're missing the title to the third 3-Pack Boxed Figure Set (with Hun, Casey Jones and Raphael) on your list. The name of it is, 'Steel Cage Slam'.
Oh, and great job on the list, BTW. ^^ |

MA,
Thanks for linking to that explanation. The Vintage TMNT line does not use DateStamps. The only numbers present on the cards are the usual Asst. #'s and Stock #'s. They also at times stamped the Stock Number on the inner bubble's underside. I noticed that the new line of figures does include a number stamp pressed onto the card. It's on the backer card, bottom center. I have many different number variations for each figure. I'm not sure if these are actual DateStamps or just case assortment numbers or whatever. I aquired all 4 Turtles very early on in December of 2002. Several doubles were bought at different times in 2003. I'll note some of the different stamped numbers below: Leo, Don, Raph, Mike (Purchased In Early December 2002) A2315 Michelangelo (Purchased In March 2003) A2335 Shredder (Purchased In March 2003) A2337 Raphael (Purchased In March 2003) A2343 Donatello (Purchased In March 2003) A2344 Case Of 16 Figures (Purchased In April 2003) A3065 I'll be getting a new case soon so I'll see what stamps are on those figures. If they are DateStamps then I'm guessing you read the year first then the day. I tested Leo's number to see what I'd get. A2315 = Year 02 Day 315 Assuming I am correct, it was printed on the 315th Day of 2002, which would make that Tuesday the 12th of November 2002. It makes sence, since I purchased the figure in early December. That was enough time to ship the cases to the manufacturers. Places like Walmart usually get their shipments in faster. That's where I found that 1 case that arrived in December of 2002. What do you think MA? Could this be a DateStamp? I checked the other numbers and they all were carded a month or two before they got to the store. I guess the numbers could be read differently but this method made the most sence. I made a little diagram of the number and how I was reading it. ![]() Thanks for the kind words Billy The Kid. Buu Shin, Thanks for that bit of Info. I'll make the change to my list on it's next update. I am missing that Steel Cage 3 Pack and can't find it anywhere. Has this been released yet? |

That looks correct to me. I'll ask someone at POTF2 what they think. I'm by far not the expert. I didn't expect the vintage to have a datestamp. Vintage Star Wars do not. It was started with the POTF2 line in 1995.

Cool! Thanks. Pictures aren't important to me. I'm just thinking about starting a collection of TMNT figures. I want a list to know what's out there. The official site is good, but like most things, I expect to find better in the collector's world.
