Date Codes and figures?
The Date code is from what i hear stamped on the cardback at the same time the figures is put on the cardback with the bubble.
A Machine stamps that production run with a Date Code at that time. Of course only Hasbro knows this for sure and they won't say!
Far as figures made. You got to remember one thing here.
The figures are made many many in production and they get put together and then they end up in giant bins or tubs as you may call them.
They then are put in the bubble and then sent down the line to have the bubble attached to the cardback... And that is from what i hear the same time the cardback gets stamped with the date code... But you also got to remember that their could be many loose figures yet in those tubs that may not get carded until later?
And if that's the case they would get a different date code if they are say carded at a later date. They then would not have the same Date Code in this case but they could be from say the same batch that was in the loose figure tubs or containers.
So some Variations could be made early and yet not get carded until a later card.
So they could end up with the same figure variation on a card that has two different date codes.
But if Hasbro keeps the figures on Track as i hear they do? Then most likely they try to get all those figures carded at the same time and all.
After all it's a Producion plant and they have people doing different things in that plant just to get these figures made and then later put in the bubble and then the bubble attached to the cardback.
Then they have to pack the items up and box them and then ship them out. So they have allot to do if you think about all that?
He! He!
