I think regenhoedje knows his stuff so if he says they are from the 1990's then they are. And are not worth a lot.

Some of these raincoats each have hood drawstrings in a different colour maybe that raises the price for the collectors.
But of all the 400+ plastic raincoats and capes I have in my collection these Carry-Macs are not in my personal top 10.
