Date issued 1994
Retired 1995
Digger the Orange Crab was released
with a 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation hangtag
It was released with a 1st generation tush tag
On the tag that say Handmade in China there
is suppose to be a copyright symbol next to each of the addresses.
(c)
This tag is more characteristic to tags from products made in
Korea, which did not have the (c) copyright symbol next to the
addresses.
There is no space between the (TM) TMStyle 4076 it should be TM
just slightly above the word style but with a space between it.
The back of this hangtag is typical of the
hangtag found on products made in Korea. What is interesting is
the inside of the tag is typical of a tag made in China. In order
for the tag to match the ones from products made in China it should
say the following.
Please remove all swing tags
before giving this item to a child
There is no (period) after the P and V in P.V.C.
pellets
There is NO space between (PA.REG#) it should be PA. REG # 1965
There is NO space between (FOR AGES 3AND UP) this is typical for
this style. Normally this error would be an indication of a fake
but not in the case. There have been many reports of this error.
The (C) for copyright is too dark and not the
typical font used by Ty
The comma is not typical of the comma used in Ty's tush tags
Beaniemon also has a photo of the
first generation tush tag if you are interested in viewing it
