- the 1996 VHS release of "Rugrats: Chuckie the Brave" (released under the Nickelodeon Video line). Mine was packaged in the 1998 cover, and it uses the 1999 horizontal sticker label on the front of the cassette shell, which I could tell the label was made in 1999 because of the byline "A VIACOM COMPANY" below the Paramount logo at the top left corner of the label, but it reuses the 1998 date for the Paramount Pictures copyright anyway (the 1998 label would not have had the Viacom byline and neither would have the 1996 label). Cassette shell and tape guard are Nickelodeon-style orange, but the release button is black. Dark ink number on the cassette spine appears to say 14, but is partially worn, making it hard to tell. Printed/pressed during the 34th week of 1999 (DLX 934); duplicated in EP/SLP mode. White screen test pattern with 1000hz sine-wave tone at the end, which cuts to a fullscreen static screen.

- the 1996 VHS release of "Rugrats: The Santa Experience" (released under the Nickelodeon Video line). Mine was packaged in the 2000 cover, and it uses the 2000 horizontal sticker label on the front of the cassette shell. Dark ink number on the cassette spine says 139. Cassette shell and tape guard are black. Printed/pressed during the 38th week of 2001 (DLX 138); duplicated in SP mode. Because of this tape being in SP mode while having been printed/pressed in 2001, there is nothing at the end after the end of the program material itself.

Because of this tape being in SP mode while having been printed/pressed in 2001 and mainly because there aren't numbers on the left of the vertical interval at the beginning, there is nothing at the end after the end of the program material itself.


- 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).

:- "A Rugrats Passover" uses the 1998 horizontal sticker label on the front of the cassette shell and reuses the 1996 master and the dark ink number on the cassette spine says 58. It was printed/pressed during the 5th week of 1999 (PAR 905) and has the white screen test pattern with 1000hz sine-wave tone at the end, which cuts to a fullscreen static screen.

:- "A Rugrats Chanukah" is a Canadian-distributed copy, uses the 1997 cover, label and master, and was printed/pressed on September 24, 1999 (990924) and it has the static roll at the end, which cuts to a fullscreen static screen, which then cuts back to the static roll at the very end.

- the 1999 VHS release of "Rugrats: Make Room for Dil" (released under the Nickelodeon Video line). It uses the early 2000 horizontal sticker label on the front of the cassette shell. Dark ink number on the cassette spine says 27. Cassette shell and tape guard are Nickelodeon-style orange. Printed/pressed during the 12th week of 2000 (DLX 012); duplicated in SP mode. Because of this tape being in SP mode while having been printed/pressed in 2001 and mainly because there aren't numbers on the left of the vertical interval at the beginning, there is nothing at the end after the end of the program material itself.


- the 2001 VHS release of "Rugrats: All Growed Up" (released under the Nickelodeon Video line). Printed/pressed during the 34th week of 2003 (DLX 334); duplicated in SP mode. My copy was recycled from a copy of an unknown Paramount VHS tape that uses a black cassette shell and black tape guard, and was printed/pressed during the 32nd week of 1998 (PAR 832). Dark ink number on the cassette spine says 51.

- the 2005 VHS release of "All Grown Up!: Dude, Where's My Horse?" (released under the Nickelodeon Video line). To my partial surprise, my copy is a Canadian-distributed copy, though it was printed/pressed in the U.S. (according to the notation watermark printed in blue on the shrinkwrap over the back of the cover which said "Made in USA" in English and French). Cassette shell and tape guard are black. Tape reels are also black. Uses horizontal silkscreen-inked label on the front of the cassette shell, printed/pressed on June 16, 2005 (061605). "PHE" is engraved in black on the right side of the cassette shell. "TTGNIC" is moulded on the back right of the shell.
