FIRST LOOK AT NFL LEGENDS 2 FIGURES -- THE PAST IS YOUR PRESENT Year's Most-anticipated Sports Figures Coming to Stores in August Friday, April 21, 2006
McFarlane Toys is set to unveil the most-anticipated sequel lineup in Sports Picks history. For years, our Sports Picks collectors requested figures of star athletes from years past, and one by one, we provided these Legends lines -- starting with the NHL, then MLB, then the NBA, and finally the NFL. Collectors had to wait the longest for the NFL Legends series, but they weren't disappointed as we delivered brilliant figures for Barry Sanders, John Elway, Troy Aikman, Franco Harris, Lawrence Taylor and Johnny Unitas. The collectors were pleased, as sales numbers went through the roof. So how do you follow that up? After an impressive debut, we went back to the drawing board and came up with six more of the NFL's greatest players for our NFL Legends 2 series. The online response to the second series has been tremendous, leaving us with just one problem -- how do we top it with next year's NFL Legends 3?
