  1. One of my favorite memories of all time! I had such a great time at that con! I met Landsman, played a warmup game with one of your crew on Friday night, and played with my Seahawks against a cool Steelers fan on Saturday. (I Lost.) My family and I had a wonderful weekend. Somewhere there is a picture of us with Mr. Landsman. I think I’ll go look for it on my off days.
  2. I want old school replicas! I had not thought about this as a product, but dang! I miss those crowd scenes and interchangeable team names. I would love to have a new one to put up with my 510 and Super Bowl III board! Shipping would be a nightmare, but I would be onboard, AM onboard with this idea!
  3. I am almost positive I met and played games with at least one of the fellows in this picture, when Miggle had their conference in Memphis way back when! Sorry to hear of this. Prayers for his family and his EF family.
  4. We’ll, we have all 14 October drops! Pretty expected, most of them. How about those Ravens and those Classic Saints!?! This has been like getting the Sears Christmas catalog and the JC Penny Christmas catalogue in the same day! Is this a great hobby or what!?!
  5. Absolutely! While we’re at it, 70s Jets, Colts, and Bears! The new additions are boss! I’ll be adding to as soon as the loan comes through 😂
  6. It takes a minute to get the hang of application, but I can knock out a complete player in about 15 minutes, give or take. It’s great for me because I have absolutely NO skills painting! I’ve collected everything older I want, so Uni-Forms have reinvigorated my interest in collecting. Unfortunately, to the chagrin of my wife. 😂
  7. Awesome find! Teams should be relatively easy to find over time. Good luck!
  8. Awesome story! Gorgeous board! I got my first board at age 6 in 1967. My next board was the Super Bowl III game from Sears. Still has the $12.88 price tag on it. This is a great hobby with many avenues to approach it with. Right now the Uni-Forms are my go to for relaxation, but with the forums, I can keep up with those many facets. Welcome to the hobby, and be careful. You could end up at 61 years old and still just as in love with it as Christmas morning 1967.
  9. I would like to take an opportunity to thank Tudor for their flawless customer support! Even when the customer does something dumb, they are Johnny on the spot. I will gladly continue to be a loyal customer. Thanks again, guys!
  10. Those black Commander’s Uni-Forms are sweet! On the way! This is going to be an awesome month!!
  11. I’m not a fan of the Chicago Bears orange Unis, but I’ll bust a gut to order them when they come out in Uni-Forms! Self reflection tells me that’s pathological. Still…can’t wait!
  12. Gee. That’s a day trip from Tuscaloosa. Hmmm. How to sell this to the wife.
  13. Alabama, Washington St., Wyoming, Navy, Holy Cross. These are the teams I follow. I would love to set up an Iron Bowl with Alabama vs Auburn, but I’m afraid to apply Auburn Uni-Forms as my fingers might erupt in flames and a black mark would appear on my chest.
  14. Ok. We’ve seen the White Tiger Bengals and, this morning, the Black Helmet Saints. Now we need these Uni-Forms! Please.
  15. Stationary QB bases/trays, yes! Divisional packs, yes! Good ideas all! Need a drop soon guys. 4 weeks in.
  16. I understand about the shading in the white Uni-Forms, but I have received more positive comments on my away teams than any other directly to do with the shading and look of those teams! The comments I get, more than others are, “realistic”, “incredible”, and “ how’d they do that?!?”. Yes, I still think pre-speed helmet teams not having speed helmets would be nice, but not a dealbreaker. I hope we have a drop of new teams soon!
  17. Just finished up the creamsicle away Bucs. Very cool. I’d give the cuts a solid B. Now, I’m 2 deep on my 79 Pats. The cuts on these are phenomenal! Even the TV numbers are easy. I’ll fly through these but I really need to slow down and savor the process. These Uni-Forms have an old school vibe to them that I really enjoy. BTW. My QB is #14, Steve Grogan. I always enjoyed his style. The season is on!
  18. A snow covered field, nice! KC v Bears for the championship, not likely this year, but I’ve always enjoyed that about EF. Had the Vikings and Oilers in a championship once. Vikings won. Just pure enjoyment!
  19. It’s always great to see these old rules books! I’ve seen many Tudor booklets but this is the first I’ve seen from Munro. Great post!
  20. Ok. This is the most amazing set of pics and games I have seen! These pictures are Unforgettable Buzz worthy. I’ll come back to them, because, every time I look at them, I find something that excites me all over again. Thank you for this, and many other posts. It’s just absolutely incredible! Thank You!
  21. Those stamped college teams were really underrated. I enjoyed seeing GT! I have Alabama and Perdue in H/A and Florida St. A. Wish I had kept the bags. I wish I had more SEC teams. When I hit the lottery I will. I went back and looked at the old Miggle order forms. What a rabbit hole!
  22. Great job! Can’t pick a favorite. Partial to the Chiefs. Would have loved to have had these any time in my 55 years in the hobby!
  23. Ok. So I started the 76 creamsicle Bucs away team and I got to the part I usually dread. TV numbers. My eyes ain’t as good as they once were and those little numbers have been my curse for 10 teams now. Solution? I had an LED headlamp and decided to see if a bit of intense, direct lighting might help. Voila! This was the answer! I had thought about using my old fly tying kit to help, but attaching the vise to the kitchen table was quickly nixed by wife. Oh well, at least when I get down to the TV numbers part of the program, I don’t feel doomed anymore! Those TV numbers really tie the Uni-form together!
