I have all the regular carded figures. I'm not sure how many that is.

I never saw any of these at retail. To be honest, I don't even remember how I got them. I think I got them in a trade. I'm pretty sure I traded some Simpsons stuff I had for them.

While there are 4 Cjujo's out right now, and soon to be 6, consider that only two versions of CuJo were easy to find
NHLPA: Easy to find, but I thought the NHLPA figures were lame without the team logos
NHL 1: One of the easier NHL 1 variants to find, but it still wasn't easy to get, by any means
Team Canada: Easy to find, if you're in Canada.
Red Wings 3 Pack: Easy to find, but you have to pay $30
I wouldn't mind seeing a Lalime instead of Cujo, but I'm not going to complain. As far as Giguere and Turco go, I'd like to see them establish themselves a little more before they get a figure.
I remember the thread at Spawn that you're talking about Morgbug, I think Naslund was the winner, and he's getting a figure. I think right now Gabroik is pretty popular. I wouldn't mind seeing a figure of him either

NHL: Detroit Red Wings. Despite their early exit to the Ducks, they are one of the best times in hockey and the most exciting to watch. To whoever said they're a Devils fan, I like Broduer, but watching Jersey puts me to sleep. I hate the trap
MLB: Detroit Tigers. They were my favorites when I was kid, back when they used to win games. I still cheer for them though
NFL: Detroit Lions. I'm shooting for a .500 season. They drafted a couple guys from my alma mater, which I think is really cool. Hopefully they get some playing time
NBA: Detroit Pistons. I don't really care for the NBA, so its the Pistons by default. I used to be a big fan back in the bad boy days, but I can't standthe NBA is a whole anymore
College: Grand Valley State University. I went here for undergrad, and last year the Lakers were the Div II NCAA Football National Champions
Michigan State University. Where I'm currently enrolled and I've been a lifelong fan of them. GO GREEN

If you order from the spawn store, you don't get a case. You get a set of the figures plus 1 variant
The "new" Roy is supposed to be in NHL 6. My guess is if McFarlane is allowed to make him they will. Its a pretty sure bet that it would be a hot seller. Not a lot of people have the Roy variant from NHL 1, he's a popular player, and with him retiring "investors" will probably be trying to get him
The Cujo that's supposed to come in NHL 7 will be a new pose, so it will just be the home and away jersey, since the Wings don't have a 3rd jersey. I'm not sure how I feel about another Cujo. On one hand, the Wings are my favorite team, so I always like seeing more Wings players. But, do I really need another one? In the end it doesn't matter, I'll buy him anyway

Thanks for the offer Morgbug. I'm going to just order a set from the Spawn Store though and I'll probably just offer up the variant I get at cost to whoever wants it
It really bums me out to get rid of my variants, but its just gotten too tough to put a set together. My side of town is lucky if they get 10 cases of hockey in total. I just don't have time to drive around trying to find the NHL variants, and look for other variants for trade. Back in the days of NHL 1 & 2 and NFL 1 & 2 I had great luck. One day I found a no helmet Emmitt and 2 no helmet Culpeppers at the same time : I also found a total of 3 Red Yzermans. It also helped that I did recieving for a store that carried Sportspicks

I"m not a fan of the post office either, and I usually have to go there 3 days a week for work. Its pretty bad that the postal employees all know me. I've always got at least a 20 minute wait no matter what time I go. At least I'm on the clock when it happens

Eh, if driving around DC in Memorial Day traffic (I was in DC when the picture was taken) then one cigar certainly isn't. Besides, its not every day someone offers me a Cuban

The Original Trilogy / Re: What did you think of the "Special Edition" movies?
« on: June 2, 2003, 10:25 PM »
Good thread. Overall I liked the SE's. There were obivously things I didn't like such as Greedo shooting first, Luke screaming, and no Yub Yub song.
However...I was too young to see the OT when it came out. I was about 2 months old when ESB came out and 3 years old when ROTJ came out. When the SE's came out, I finally got to see Star Wars on the big screen. For me, that outweighs any of the bad things

That's a cool idea. Since I'm not an opener, I wouldn't buy them, but I'm sure lots of other people would
