![]() COACHES,
Detriotchild was right, there are going to be varied anwsers on this one. it is the wide spread number that is so shocking. Imagine in a game a team won REDSKINS 480 COWBOYS 20 ***480 BASES TO 20 CUSTOM FIGS. THAT NUMBER IS SO WIDE SPREAD YOU JUST WONDER ARE YOU MAKING THE RIGHT CHOICE. ***I totally agree is it a marriage made in heaven for both. I happen to lie also the miggle NEW PROLINE figures. (THE SECOND SET WITHOUT THE QB). I see they are $6 for 5 figures. I like those poses because they have the customized look to them outtside of the fab five. I think i will focus on getting more bases, put the extra money towards getting THE DWAYNE JENNINGS MINI MACS and FF.NET FIGURES. Then get the miggle proline figures to blend in with the two mainstay's just mentioned. I'll be honest, i hate cutting and gluing stuff together. DONT LIKE CUSTOMIZING. But with the jennings mini macs, you get to put the figures together via a kit from the start. I always loved the ff.net figures from day one (reg will attest to that). I dont like doing anything to them. THE STOCK FIGURES ARE IN A PROFESSIONAL LOOKING POSE RIGHT OUT OF THE BAG. I personally think those feeling there way through in creating a look cant go wrong mixing and matching FF.NET FIGURES AND DEWAYNE JENNINGS MINI MACS. JUST FIGURE THAT OUT THEN GET YOUR 480. painted up right and detailed to the max, YOU WILL HAVE A NASTY LOOKING TEAM. YOU GOTTA GET THE 480, IT'S THEE AMERICAN WAY !!!!!!!! MANTARAYDRE

![]() Without question, bases. Take a figure off a base and put it on the board. How good is he?

![]() More valueable? Easy...highly detailed figures (customized, painted, decals, customized, face masks, etc.). Its not even close to me. Not stock Miggle teams painted like my kids would do but some of the amazing customized stuff you see on this chat board. I feel I can get a good base in a matter of a few minutes, and a great base comes more often with a little luck than pure perceverence. Thats why if you have boat loads of bases like I do (and like many of you) your best percentage of getting great bases is to tweak up a bunch and expereiment with them. Am I short changing "great" bases compared to "good" bases? From what I've seen I really don't think so. There's no short cut to detailing these little figures and its very tedious work. If my house was on fire I'd probably go back in after the figures, not sure if I would risk it for the bases.
![]() Now the field...a really good running big custom field...that may be the number one item you put on your christmas list to truely enjoy the hobby. I love a good running field!

![]() I may have misread the question. I was posting as to what is more important in creating a winning team.

![]() This is a tough choice because it's such a personal thing but...how many coaches have coveted those precious first run prolines (5-10 bucks a base)? How many of you have heard the stories of guys wanting to pay top dollar for an amazing base owned by another coach? I don't know how true it is but I've heard as much as a hundred bucks offered for a base. Now my bet is those coaches are serious competitors in league and tourney play but those guys are probably serious about their bases.

![]() The bases are the most important part of the total "Player". I find it much more difficult to give up bases (even the ones I have screwed up trying to tweak) than to change figures on a given team. I have bags and boxes of bases, many have never even been opened. But I hang on to them because one day I am going to find that perfect base.

P.S. 2006 Buzzfest, a coach comes to my room, asks me how much for my noseguard, I not wanting to sell him said $60, 2 seconds later 3 $20 dollar bills fell unto the board, I looked at him and shook my head, I couldn't say anything even though I didn't want to sell him. P.S. Back in the day, the $100 dollar stories are very true. P.S. Serious competitors is a true statement. Norbert Revels

here is one of mine form the 2001 Miggle Convention in Canton..... ... I had some Vikings with R.Smith at Rb... he was on a original R/L base that covered a 620 in 3 or less and ran in the hashmark the whole way.... well as this weekend was going on, the $$$$ was flowing everywhere.... well one of the guys from NEFL (name not given to protect the guilty) saw him running up and down the field and wanted this base badly.....I mean BADLY.... So I said give $60 and before I could take the player off the field 3 $20 was being tossed my way... It has happened before, I don't know if it will ever again because of so many tweakers in the system now. |
