Could it be:

>China
As in:

>(Hong Kong region in China btw, do not mistake it as Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in Brussels which is in Belgium. Belgium the country, not the small town in Ozaukee County, Wisconsin, United States)

Make your molds properly. Don’t be a cheap skate.

When i was a kid my mom had a short stint at a factory. She would often get paid extra if she took crates of pens home and took them out of their made in china wrappers and replace them with a made in America wrapper

It was already moulded like this, you can’t add embossing (raised) contrary to debossing (hollow)

Omg !! So, I leaned recently that there’s something similar with a certain Lego brick (I forgot which one). They had to block out the logo. So it has the covered over logo in the mold to change it for the rest of them. Downside is that all the pieces had that weird blocked out look and it was obvious.
They must’ve filled in the mold where Hong Kong is and put china under it. That’s why it looks like it’s covered up. Wonder why they changed it.

How old is it? Light industry in Hong Kong has been gone for decades, nobody’s flown “a cargo plane full of rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong” in a long time.

That plastic mold was originally used in HK, then it moved to China where they ground out HK and stamped in CHINA

these are the posts i’m still following this sub for. perfect “huh, weird” reaction.
More likely the injection mold was altered.
It’s a common practice to update injection molded plastic pieces: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V088hxxFwqU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V088hxxFwqU)
