Read this article and it was good. His attempts at dressing out his players… did he even go through the tutorial? I’m going to be kind here because when I finally post pics of one of my teams… brace for impact!

Well. I finished my Super Bowl Eagles in time for the game. Lots of rookie mistakes were made, but I was pushing it. The Super Bowl Chiefs have been a bit of a challenge. I’m not sure why because I’ve taken my time and the cuts are phenomenal. Still, even though I haven’t done the best job on these two teams, they still look good once finished. When I do a team I’m relatively satisfied with, I’ll put down some pics. I still love doing this. It’s relaxing and clears my head. Uni-Forms still amaze me in their design and about a dozen other reasons. I mean, who came up with the popsicle stick and toothpick idea? I still use those as much as anything else to put these teams together. How about some inside football on the development of Uni-Forms and the decisions involved in creating the packaging, look, and design? I would be fascinated.

SUPER BOWL 5 of ELECTRIC FOOTBALL Collectible Patch
Daryl Collins replied to nefgm.org's topic in News and Announcements
I hope someone has one! I would love to see a picture. -
So strange this topic should pop up as I have been thinking about this same thing just today. I have a good collection that spans back to 1970 and I don’t have the slightest idea my family would want to keep any of it. It would mean a great deal to me if I knew it would be donated to someone else’s enjoyment. I’ll get the information from y’all where to have her get it to should things go south and I go North. Prayers to all of you, and thanks to y’all for this great community.

Time Stoppage rules in the old days
Daryl Collins replied to Coach Shawn's topic in Strategy and Gameplay
Absolutely priceless! Amazing you still have this after all this time. Thanks for sharing. This made my evening! -
Anyone have any information on Wyatt’s Uni-Forms advanced class at the convention?
-
Wow! Where does he keep all those amazing toys? Dynamite system! Kudos.
-
That’s great! I will compensate you for the flags and any shipping charges. I appreciate it!
-
I’m still looking in my stuff, but would anyone know a place to get those little end zone flags that came with the late 60s, early seventies sets? I’ve looked on eBay to no avail, and I’m not into buying a whole set to acquire some. Hopefully I’ll come across where I put them so I would remember where I put them so I wouldn’t lose them. How’s that working out….

Model number for Miggle Super Bowl board?
Daryl Collins replied to Coach Shawn's topic in Game Boards
Thanks! It was a kick getting out all my boards. It was amazing I wasn’t in the basement for hours. That usually happens when I get amongst my EF stuff. Good thing I was needing to start work on my Eagles Uni-Forms. I got a week. -
Model number for Miggle Super Bowl board?
Daryl Collins replied to Coach Shawn's topic in Game Boards
As you can see, the earlier board is darker and has less Miggle graphics. It’s the one that came shipped in the plain cardboard box. I’ve included pictures of the latter one’s box I got at Toys R Us. Sorry the pics aren’t that professional. Best I could do in the time I had. -
Model number for Miggle Super Bowl board?
Daryl Collins replied to Coach Shawn's topic in Game Boards
That looks like both of mine if I remember straight. I get some time today, I’ll unbox mine and compare. Pretty clean board for second hand. I’d give a dollar to know what teams came with! -
Model number for Miggle Super Bowl board?
Daryl Collins replied to Coach Shawn's topic in Game Boards
Got this for Christmas in the 90’s, sometime. Cowboys v Steelers. If this isn’t the info you’re looking for, I’ve got a Ravens v Giants Super Bowl from Miggle I got in a ToysRUs that has all the graphics on the box. I’ll just have to dig it out. -
So out of the releases earlier in 2022, what’s your 10 favorites? Here’s mine. 10) 2022 Eagles CR (Color Rush. But y’all knew that.) There’s a flock of Eagles headed West next week, and if they weren’t going to wear Kelly Green, this is what they should show up in… but won’t. Sad. 9) Bears 2022 Orange. Love’em or hate’em, you can’t ignore’em. 8) Ravens 2016 CR. Best Ravens Uni hands down. 7) Cowboys 2022 CR. Iconic. 6) Commanders All Black. If they start winning… Black Hole East! 5) Red Storm Texans. If they played as good as this looks, they’d be playing next week! 4) Classic Saints. Makes you wanna go watch Clint Eastwood’s Tightrope. Pure NOLA! 3) Falcons Classic Black Jersey. Harmon Wages wept when he saw this! (Go google him). 2) Black Helmet Saints. You wanted it, Tudor delivered. Pure tactile EF history. 1) White Tiger Bengals. If they had made the Super Bowl and wore this, I might have had to change Who Dat for Who Dey! (Nah.) but this was a lightning strike of a Uni, and looks awesome in Uni-Forms! What y’all got? Bring it!
-
We’ll, the Eagles released their choice of jerseys and I see the Uni-Forms are available, but the Chiefs away jerseys are not. Hopefully restocking soon. I want them together. Before LVIi. Now would be a good time to release those Super Bowl 2 packs. Uni-Forms with Super Bowl patches. Yup. I’d buy’em.

Nicholson Joker: “Where does he get those wonderful toys!?!”. Looking at these pictures is like looking at the old Tudor catalogs, if action shots were the order of the day. The snow field… are you kidding me? What a great touch!!

Another opportunity to share the game and hobby
Daryl Collins replied to nefgm.org's topic in News and Announcements
What a great exhibit! Y’all are knocking it out of the park! -
Watching the replay of Super Bowl XLVI. Just started my White Tiger Bengals. Completed Burrow and it looks amazing! The cuts are phenomenal. Just finished my home 49ers. A bit on the struggle bus with those. Cuts about a C on an A - F scale but I was really pleased with the final product. Hope everyone enjoys the championship games Sunday! It’s a great time to be alive!
-
We’ll, I was bummed I won’t make the convention due to work and distance. Then I saw Wyatt was having an advanced Uni-Forms forum. You guys have to find some way to release this content! I would like to have a DVD, but I know that is old school. Any form y’all can get this out, I want. I’ll pay. Just get it out there, please. Thanks!

Bad Paint Jobs - Let the Buyer Beware!
Daryl Collins replied to NO Dave's topic in Figure Painting and Detailing
Dave, I have a few of the aforementioned paint jobs. Years ago I took the “Full C” Bears and painted them with orange jerseys. (Little did I know) It was one of only of a few paint jobs I tried over the years I actually liked. -
13 greatest Electric Football Teams
Daryl Collins replied to Chris Harris's topic in Figure Painting and Detailing
One of the best articles ever! “Full Color” is a sheer gift and has the best pics of items I’ll never see in person in my lifetime. This article is like getting 5 extra minutes of your favorite geek-out movie that you never knew existed. -
That board and everything in those pictures just flat out makes me happy! Just great!
-
I know loving the all white unis is a crazy tic associated with my childhood, but has everyone seen some of the all or mostly white unis this weekend!?! Uni-Forms have some great ones. I love all the color rush and alternates, but the Black helmet Saints in white and some of the truly awesome Uni-Forms already out, like the Classic Bills in all white are just outstanding! This weekend, the Chiefs in all white and the Lions with no striping whatsoever on the pants, just pop!

I will definitely be visiting this! Surveillance cameras, huh? 24/7. Darn. Guess I’ll have to behave myself.
