Does anyone on here know the font that Mattel uses for their nameplated? I've searched all over DaFont and can't find the matching font, only ones that ones that slightly resemble it. When doing Elite customs based on a PPV, I prefer to make my own in Photoshop and have the nameplate with that PPV logo on it, the font is all I'm missing.
Cheers to anyone that helps.

Sorry about reviving an old thread but I have the same question as the OP. I recently started collecting Mattel figs and have decided to create my own stand labels since they no longer include them with the figures. Is there no one who knows what font Mattel used on their stand labels- would MDT know if I contacted them?!
Thanks.

Anyway I did end up finding the font they used on the original name tags. I can't remember what its called though. I do remember not being able to find a free version of it as well. |

Thanks for the replies.
¡Twist Of Lime!, can you not remember at all what the name was?! Do you recall if there is another font that the Mattel font is similar to?! I looked through the entire nameplate thread on here and do not like the font that styles01 used, he created most of the nameplates that are posted in that thread.
I wonder if someone from Mattel would give me the name of the font, perhaps MDT who posts on here from time to time?! If they are no longer going to include nameplates with the figures then at the very least I wish they would tell us what font they used so we could make our own.
Thanks.

Thanks. @cdnmadness Did you guys have any luck? I was thinking that I would create the alphabet using scans of as many of the existing name tags as possible. But I don't have many tags!!! I'm sure you could complete most of the alphabet. I know I have Bret The Hitman Hart and Road Warrior Hawk handy, but that doesn't take up that many letters B H R T W a d e i k m n o r t |

I've tried remembering the font they used but can't for the life of me. I think it started off with BF. I can tell you the font that Mattel used on the second packaging though, it's called Sony Sketch.

It's called "BN Machine". No it isn't. Thats the alternative font that people were using, which sort of resembles the font Mattel originally used. |
