Also, what about the KOP totes before 2011? What models were those?
I know for sure the narrow side lip and handle on the older model crates are different. We had one student prototyping on one and they didn't realize it wasn't the official game piece.

The dimensions are the same as far as I can tell, so using them for the upside down crates in the land fill would work for most matches. Have a team tell you before hand if they plan to go pull those out.
