Yes, they are neat-o!

The only thing is that it seems like they have only 2-3 different models to choose from.
So if you get more than one player who looks the same, you will just have to think he either switched teams or has twins or triplet brothers. LOL

My, how times have changed. I don't even see numbers on those jerseys.

The Decatur Staleys ones look terrible, though. Stripes? Really?

Very nice with the exception of the 1950's Packers. The years '53 and '54 helmets are backwards. From '51 to '53, the Packers wore a metallic old gold helmet with a kelly green stripe (ridge). In 1954, they went to a yellow helmet like they wear currently with a navy blue stripe or ridge. These figures are backwards.

Um, I think 1918 is the year before the Packers actually formed. But how wierd is it thinking every team had the same color pants, and if their colors were similar.

Packers had Yellow and Blue stripes in something like 1927's, it was the belief the stripes would help secure the ball, since back then you weren't down by contact.
