The Independent Subbuteo Forum (est. 2002)

More solo goalies illustrated on the newly uploaded December edition of Table Football Monthly. They look like an excellent idea to me.

As I mentioned earlier in this thread John Briton's toy shop was situated on Shambles Street in Barnsley....

The box sleeve looks in good nick. Still an awful lot of money, though.

There's a workable solution, to the solo goalkeeping problem, illustrated in one of the episodes of Table Football Monthly.
Can't remember which episode, though.

It's also got a £1.70 price sticker attached to the box.
Were Heavies ever sold r.r.p. at this price ??
Certainly lightweights were.

I'd expect a genuine reference 350 (if one exists at such a high reference nunber) to sell for 300+. So, somebody's either bought a super, super rare HW team for the princely sum of 145 quid or they've bought a repainted team from "faddes". I'm sure I've heard that name mentioned before. :...

Do you believe this team is genuine? This one has the same issue I pointed out before, where there appears to be two different shades of green on the collar. Do you think was just a case of the outworker not mixing the paint properly, so that the paint goes semi-transparent? The paint on the 152 lo...

I'm not on Facebook either. A lot of photos have disappeared from this site over the last couple of years which kinda spoils it a bit. Only the other day, I looked at a particular reference number in the classic heavyweights section and 3/4's of the reference photos weren't there anymore. A lot of t...

Some of "Spinbowler's" teams look ok, some look a bit dodgy. He could do with revising the item description for this particular ref 152 that's on ebay at the moment. It's not "mint" as he states. There's 1 reglue, bottom left. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Subbuteo-Bulgaria-Named-Bo...

The Leeds home kit on those figures look superb.

That's a lot of dosh.

Light blue box or green box ??

One or two of the shorter Subbuteo figures in there. These figures turn up fairly regularly in the 102.

Cannot recall ever seeing a genuine reference sticker on any of these rare teams from this part of the UK. Anybody could replicate the 216, themselves, on these bases for about 25 quid with a reference 6 and a couple of tins of Humbrol paint. Or maybe commission Calum to do a lovely 216 on Santiago's.

I can't be sure 'cos I'm looking at it on my mobile.

By "written", I mean "in the distant past, it's been rubbed out and then it's left an imprint".
