Default dont say i never gave you........

.........anything.

ok, some know, some dont..... the MOST sought after BASES from the 70's are the widetops.....

the best way to get them on the cheap is to find a 500 set from 1973 only, it has the 2 teams with no skintones painted. one team has red shirt and red socks, the rest of the entire fig is white. the other team has blue helmet and blue socks, rest of fig is all white.


there IS said set on ebay NOW....but YOU have to be the judge too make sure the bases are WIDETOPS, not all of these sets had them.


hope you see this if you are after widetops. looks like there are 22 of them.

search on ebay........ 1973 tudor electric football ............. that should get you close to it...... remember, YOU must make the determination if they are widetops or not. good luck. and you are welcome.

Default Theres 2 versions

Only the small figures have the widetops, the haiti size guys have same color bases but are not widetops,..............so look for the size of the men 1st, and sometimes the sellers switch out the widetops, it happen to me 3 years ago.

Question I just bought a 500 set with these figures...

I just bought this complete set at a garage sale for $5. It is a 500 set with the figures painted up this way. All the accessories, including the stadium scene card were included. The rulebook is copyrighted in 1973.

All the bases (TTC) were included with the figures. How can you tell the difference between widetops and others?

Maybe I should post a picture and get your expert advice?

Question Are these the widetops from the 500 model?

Can anyone confirm if these are the widetops from the Tudor 500 set?

Default Guy make sure you dont look for this game, LOL

Guy’s wide top bases also came with a Sears 620' that had 4 teams in the box. Redskins D, Dolphins W, Vikings D, And Colts W 22 bases. So guys do me a favor don't look for this game on EBay. Leave them all for me.
