Sideline Figures-Impact Miniatures wants our input

Keep it old school. Head coach options definitely, all the NFL Hall of Fame coaches should be done. Players sitting along a bench. Players standing on sidelines with old trench coats on, over their uniforms while wearing helmets (picture players standing next to Vince Lombardi and it is freezing outside). A bunch of reporters huddled in a group, with old cameras, NOT video cameras, but cameras from the 1960's. Assistant coaches with the headsets on. Basically look at NFL Films Super Bowl tapes I, II, II and IV and try and recreate all the humans everywhere.

Old school!

My question is cost: How much for each figure individually or could they be sold as a package deal-type of thing. (cheerleaders). Those would be awesome in the corner of an end zone.

I would like to see camera men on the sideline.

Orange pylons for each corner of each endzone, and yard line markers for each side of each yard line in 10 yd inc. (G, 10, 20, 30, and so on)

Guys, figures..not parts...coaches, cheerleaders, referees etc...not stadiums, not dresskits, thats not what Impact makes.
They can make a man holding a first down marker but not just a first down marker. I might not have explained it well enough. If so, sorry. :o

I'm also in favor of the chain gang. We've all been subjected to making some chains to fit different boards. So a fully functional chain gang would be a plus.

This is fabulous! I'm even more fired up about the hobby with this coming down the pike! Great stuff! I'll buy boatloads o' these! Those cheerleader pics were great.

If we did a chain gang ... would you be looking for people to hold them?

Or just the markers?



For the down marker in that set ... is that needed? If so could we do a pole with a ring that the down market fit into and then the downs could be on a square block on top of it that could be spun in the ring to show the down (or if people are desired ... we'd make sure the hand of the guy holding the down marker was shaped to allow the down marker pole to spin to show which side of the block had the proper down number.)

Also would the simple imagery of the above be good enough ... or would a more detailed set like this be desired?


I really like the idea of doing a multi-headed coach ... but if a good chain gang is desired ... I'm open to that as well as it would be something unique ... however I'd really be relying on MFCA folks for this one as it will have zero cross sell to the Fantasty Football board gamers since all 4 of the current fantasy football board games on the market do not have downs ... the ball is kicked and then its a continuous drive in all 4 games until someone scores or time runs out.

If all that is desired for this is something like was previously posted in the thread:

I don't see any reason we could not put this on our plate at the same time as a multi-headed coach. Would they need to be sold with 2 small disc 1/8" magnets? Or would they be fine to just sell the pewter markers and leave it to each buyer to decide how best to adhere them to the field?

Our figures normally run between $3.50 and $4.75 each. We do sell items as package deals as well depending on the product.

The cheerleaders that I showed pictures for from one of our competitors is only sold is packages of 3 and he charges $10.99 for the 3 pack.

Here is an official NFL chain gang and ball boy. There are two different ball boys...one with a neon "X" on their shirt and the kicking ball boys with a neon "K". It would be great to have a set that included two figures holding the sticks, one holding the down marker and one kicking and one normal ball boy.

just my two cents
