your right about the 2002 version, i went back to my history to find the pic and the box says the style code from the US 2003 model :x
and there was a 1999 model for sure but from what i remember back in the day the toecap on the 99 retro was blue instead of transparant
cuz back in the day there was a guy that i knew, he was all over the hyper blue AMPs he bought 2 pairs in 98 and also 2 pairs in 99 and when he showed me the 99 retro i noticed that the toecap was blue also the blue on the upper of the 99 was not as popping as on the 98 but it is possible that the production run of the 98 version stopped in the early year of 99 and that in the summer from 99 came a new version with the blue toecap and the less blue upper
