Default NFL teams

hey guys,

Just wondering if you think that someday in a short, medium or even long term that a company (like Miggle for example..) will produce all the NFL teams like Miggle does a couple of months ago. Maybe it's me and correct me if i'm wrong but i strongly think that it's never been the same with the lost of the NFL liscence.


Please let me know and if you know something, please share this info with all the community

Take care, Benster from north of the border

I am not sure if you know this but there is a compnay that makes the NFL items that Miggle used to sell. Go to www.dmart2000.com. When you get to the homepage you will see a blank rectangle box. Type in the words "Electric Football", click the search button and BINGO you will see all of the NFL items that Miggle used to sell. Hope this helps.

Hey, Ben. If you're looking for NFL teams to buy, try ebay. But a lot of guys now are making their teams through painting and decaling. Just check on the board who paints NFL teams and I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

It all depends on what the NFL wants to do, too bad there wasn't some high ranking NFL executive that had the power to say, "you know what, I played electric football as a kid, leave Miggle alone".

In my opinion, sure it was disappointing to see Miggle lose the ability to make and sell NFL teams, but on the other hand, I did not lose too much sleep over it, as I always play with a custom painted and decaled team, they look much better.

I have a soft spot for the Miggle teams as I grew up playing and collecting the old Tudor stuff, this may increase the demand a little for these teams now, though there seems to be no shortage of teams available, with this board, Ebay, DrMart, etc... Now that the NFL did what they did to Miggle, I think about it and I am actually surprised that they let Miggle go on for as long as they did.

Miggle's men to me always looked plain bad, I am a perfectionist I guess and some of those teams looked absolutely horrible. You can relate to this Ben, it's similar to Subbuteo, sure I collect some of my favorite older teams, but my competition teams are all custom painted and decaled Stephan Corda figures.

Like the old saying goes......all good things must come to and end eventually
