NEWCASTLE UNITED TEAM PACK

Corinthian launched a new range of figures under the banner of 'ProStars Fan Favourites' which have the figures in 'photographic line up' poses. 6 of the figures are stood up with arms behind their backs, 3 are crouched down, 1 is knelt to the right, 1 knelt to the left and the final one is the team captain who is crouched down with the football at his feet.

 

​

The figures are the same size as regular ProStars however they are a 2 piece mould which have turning heads, are a little lighter than regular ProStars and on a brighter Green base with the player name printed on. The range carried it's own collector codes, starting with FF (Fan Favourites) and came with collector cards.

 

​

The Newcastle United team pack was released on the 17th November 2003 and features 12 Newcastle United players in 2003/04 home kit. The team pack contained the 12 figures, 12 collector cards and also a display stand complete with backing card.

​

 

6 of the figures were also done as single blisters, initially only available in Japan but Corinthian did acquire limited stock to be sold in the club shop and via Corinthian direct. The 6 figures also done as single blisters are Shay Given, Jonathan Woodgate, Jermaine Jenas, Kieron Dyer, Alan Shearer and Craig Bellamy.

​

​

An excellent team pack which features the only figure of Aaron Hughes that Corinthian ever released, with Titus Bramble and Jonathan Woodgate also getting their solitary ProStars release, but both defenders also featured in the MicroStars range.
