Line 5:
- the 1996 VHS release of "Top Gun" (1986). My copy had a strip label on the cassette spine, but I peeled it off to get to the number that's printed in dark ink (said number says 59). Printed/pressed during the 36th week of 1996 (PAR 636).
 
- the 1997 VHS release of "Rugrats: Return of Reptar" (released under the Nickelodeon Video line). Cassette shell and tape guard are Nickelodeon-style orange, but the release button is black. My copy had a strip label on the cassette spine, but I peeled it off because I thought there was something underneath the label (as it turns out, there wasn't). The dark ink number is on the left side of the cassette shell rather than the cassette spine and says 19. Assembled presumably on April 15, 1997 (0415; the last four digits of the barcode sticker on the tape guard), during the 16th week of that year and printed/pressed sometime during that week (PAR 716); duplicated in EP/SLP mode. White screen test pattern with 1000hz sine-wave tone at the end, which cuts to a fullscreen static screen, which then cuts to a quarter-minute black screen with the "pull-my-finger" blare at the very end (The blare is only audible in the linear track even though this tape was technically encoded with Hi-Fi). I was half-surprised to find out that the black screen with the blare at the very end of this tape was in SP mode, sincedue to the restfact ofthat thethis tape was technically in EP/SLP.
 
- the 1997 VHS release of "Rugrats: A Rugrats Vacation" (released under the Nickelodeon Video line). Mine was packaged in the original 1997 cover. Cassette shell and tape guard are Nickelodeon-style orange, but the release button is black. My copy had a strip label on the cassette spine, but I peeled it off to get to the number that's printed in dark ink (said number says 86). Printed/pressed during the 26th week of 1997 (PAR 726); duplicated in EP/SLP mode. White screen test pattern with 1000hz sine-wave tone at the end, which cuts to a fullscreen static screen.
