Production years

I decided to start a new topic, which might come in handy. I would, IMHO, create a new forum section for it.
Production years!
Schleich aside, we need info on when the animals from other brands were retired, when they got new colours or when they were introduced. Bullyland will be one of the trickiest.

I will start with:
Collecta Paraceratherium (year of release ???)
Papo Neanderthaler with 2 weapons (same)
Safari good luck mini hatching turtle (same)
Safari leafy seadragon
Safari weedy seadragon (both: release and retired)

wel

if you have and look into the catalogues of all company's
than you wil have youre release date's
and collor version

The copyright is usually printed on the figure somewhere (not sure about on the Good Luck Mini). For Safari, the year of release is usually the year after the copyright - so for example, figures with a copyright of 2000 were released in 2001. However, I think Papo's figures are copyrighted the same year as release, as are Safari's 2012 figures. Schleich and Bullyland, I believe, are copyrighted the year before their actual release. This won't help you with versions, repaints, or years retired, but it will get you a year of release.

The prehistoric men were the first prehistoric figures from Papo, together with the old model mammoth and the fireplace.
They came together with the ranges of animals in 2004

I have a problem with most of the catalogues from Safari, - they have no year on them

Good luck minis don't have their years printed, and neither do Bullylands...

Mihnea, are you asking the year of CollectA paraceratherium? Isn't it marked 2009?
About Papo figures, as it was told here, they are marked with the year of their launching, exception to 2004 figures that are marked 2003.

The caveman is marked 2000 :?

The best is to have a look or even participate HERE
