Blood for the Baron!

Bazinga.

The original Footballers are very rare to find & expensive toys to own...yet the last time I saw a set @ the N.E.C toy fair the 40th re-issues were being sold off for 1/2 price on the Modellers-loft stall.

I've stiil got the original issue 'VAM' Arsenal pin badge my uncle got back in the 60's some place...

A Pommy thing then? Never saw any in this end of the world. Were many produced?

Lippy? As in pucker up, Johnny?

Stack loads, apart from a lot of complete kits (like Arsenal & Spurs) you could also buy separate shorts, socks & shirt packs to mix & match, making it possible to recreate your own favorite sides kit or the one the local team you supported wore...this was in a time when team strips & colours changed very little, before big commercial sponsorship deals mean teams change shirt designs every other match.

I must admit that I find it surprising that you didn't get the Cricket player outfit set in your neck of the woods.

Their not particularly good at sports in the southern hemisphere so I wouldn't say it was suprising

ooooo... them's FIGHTIN' words!

They are aren't they.

Righto then. My Dad's car is better than your Dad's car.......
