This is funny...

Am I wrong. Did the players really shrink that much over 40 years? Even the bases look really small.

I hope with my vision that I'll be able to paint these guys.

Speaking of which, in response to some of my other threads...I'm going to create 2 teams...My personal team will be the 96 Packers composed of various figures for tournaments with not much restrictions; I'm also going to create an all-Miggle team specifically for that tournament...the Texas Longhorns.

The small players make it easier to keep to scale though.

I am impressed by the players that many in this message board have painted, but for me, uniforms and paint doesn't matter too much as of yet. As a starter, I just want to "train" my players well, and learn to play the game efficiently, and competitively.

And, for all the rest of you Michigan people, I am from Fraser, Michigan, but I currently live out here in the Seattle area of Washington State.

You are going about it the right way if you want "on field production" .... but I know so many coach who quote this phrase ' even if I lose, I will look good doing it!"
So don't sleep on getting your teams looking as good as they play!
