1994:
MY REAL PETS
(Pet Shop
Collection)
|
Note: |
|
The Fancy Poodle and
Brave German Shepherd were not released in
Europe. All of the other sets in the My Real Pets
assortment were released both in
the US and abroad. In
the US, each
My Real Pets set was sold with one of two
fact card variants. One card features a "Cartoon"
depiction of the pet, and the other features a more "Realistic"
depiction. The Realistic fact
cards appear to have only
been released with US sets.
International releases of My Real Pets sets included
a "Family Album" pamphlet in: the
UK (and Greece, which used UK
packaging), Belgium &
the Netherlands, Italy, and
France (and maybe in Spain?). Other
international releases of My Real Pets sets
instead included
a Cartoon fact card that had no text
on the back in Germany and
Japan.
In
Australia (which used American
packaging), these sets were released with
Cartoon fact cards with text on the back. More information is
needed on releases in Mexico and Canada. In releases from the
US, Canada,
Germany,
Australia, and
Japan, the sets' trophies featured the
text "I love my [Collie, etc.]". Sets released in
France and the
UK
contained a trophy
that had a sticker with the pet's name on it. In
Italy, the trophy had two variations:
1) paw print only (no name) on sticker; 2) name on sticker.
