Stoked to finally have them on display. To my knowledge, I’m the first collector to complete this alternate mold set from the Original series. These figures are believed to be from an early production run of the series.
Brought to you by yours truly.
I finally hit 39/40 today—just one away from the full Sports glowie set. I picked the most varied colors for the photos, but I have several other shades for some characters. They’ve come from all over the world, and I’ve opened well over 1,500 Sports packs by now. All Magic Box Int. stamp.
Yo,
I’ve been sorting through my South American Classic & Things and I’m trying to separate the Mexican pieces from the Brazilian ones.
In the photo, the row on the left contains the pieces I believe are Mexican, while the row on the right contains the ones I believe are Brazilian.
From what I’ve noticed, the Brazilian pieces tend to be smaller, smoother, and some have a more pronounced arch on the bottom. The jelly pieces also seem much cloudier than their Mexican counterparts.
If anyone has experience with South American releases and can confirm or correct my observations, I’d really appreciate the help.
Thanks!
I recently found this piece in an Australian lot. What makes it stand out is:
- Classic OG60 were not released in Australia
- It was the only OG60 piece in the lot
- It is based on the Canadian mold, but unlike the regular Canadian mold it has CHINA stamped on the back. Another interesting fact is that Australian Macro Aliens also have a CHINA marking on their backs while European ones do not
- It has a hole at the bottom, and you can see the figure is white inside. Canadian OG60 never came in white
- It has a weird gold finish that looks like it was spray painted
- The seller confirmed it was obtained in the 90’s in Australia but couldn’t give additional details
