Can anybody tell me wich are the new paintjobs on A-Rod and Jeter???....I mean a black glove on A-Rod and that should make me buy that 2-pk, oh TMP didn't Ben or Mark (who happens 2 be a Yankee fan) saw any of the last two season games (324 actually) in wich Alex Rodriguez wears high socks????....Does it really cost's you all that money 2 simply make those socks high?????....And also no NY'08 patches on neither of them.....

Last night when I heard that the pics would be shown today, I assumed that these two figures would have some kind of 'patch' on their sleeves...either the 08 patches or the 09 first season patch that you know they are going to wear

With all three pieces of news that came out regarding baseball, none of it was all that to write home about. I guess it is what we all should come to expect anymore with this company. :(

There is a poll on the front page where I wish they gave an option of neither.

As I said in the other thread, this was a three pack, which never have new poses. Mark told me his swing is too unique to him, so a headswap onto another batter would not work. As far as a fielding or baserunning pose, Griffey wore long sleeves on both Jackie Robinson days, so this was really the only pose that would've been accurate. The head sculpt looks great, but it doesn't fit the pose. I loved the idea, but am just underwhelmed with the execution. :cool:

If they can fix the thick piping on the jersey I'll still probably pick it up.

Maybe they plan on putting on the 2009 inaugural season yankees patches when the patch actually gets made. I doubt at this moment that the yankees have the patch designed and if they did, that they would want TMP figures to be the first to feature it. Just a thought.

very disappointed in the griffey pose selection. the head scult looks nice. as far as the yanks 2 pack goes...not impressed

Wow. That Griffey is awful. Possibly the worst baseball figure Ive seen in a while.

Since Jeff Kent or Magglio?

Only problem with this one is the glove is RH.

Pants work better, sleeves work, body shape works better.

I ripped the head off my Kent and put it on a Miguel Cabrera pose.
