The more I've been thinking about the way the spikes look, the less I like them. It would be really simple to shorten or remove them though.

These are fantastic. Plastic or Metal, I'll be picking up a box. It would be nice if they released other teams more ofter than every year or two. I just can't understand that.

The spikes look alright, they're not like the traffic cones my zombies are dragging around.

I'll be getting them... though the chances of me actually painting them before 2007 are slim at best... :lol:

does every team have a probowler???

who's representing the browns?
(the Colts should have been #18 :oops: )

justout in 1 player from each team so give 'em i dunno Kellen Winslow Jr (or a FA Gary Baxter or Reuben Droughns) (or Braylon Edwards but there are prob better receivers out there) i'll think of a prospective team then

AFC: First name down Chargers - LaDainian

Does this mean that there are 4 different Blitzers or will the pack just include 2 of one of the versions?

Yeah, that would be typical GW wouldn't it! :roll:

I have no idea why the advert is wrong, but Jervis has said there are 4 blitzers in the pack.

AFAIK every mini is a unique pose. So there are 4 blitzer poses.

Cool - I strongly prefer Metal anyway so it's all good.

I must be one of the few however who actually LIKE the spikey look.

Strange... :)
