HELPING YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR FIGURE(S)! NHL Series 18 For The CanadiansTodd McFarlane is giving his legion of Canadian fans a real treat with the NHL Series 18 line-up. Being a serious puckhead himself he knows how to deliver what the fans want. There's no denying the passion and dedication Canadians have for the game of hockey and Todd McFarlane has created the NHL 18 lineup to specifically appeal to Canadian collectors. It was originally constructed with Edmonton's Sheldon Souray and Ottawa's Ray Emery, alongside native Canadians Joe Sakic and Jordan Staal. But Todd recently decided to expand the NHL lineups back to six players, and gives a salute to Quebec in this lineup; offering Mats Sundin and Guy Lafleur in their Nordiques uniforms. Take a look at the pictures, eh? NHL series 18 is scheduled to arrive on shelves in May 2008.
   In April 2007 Souray was back on form, and broke the NHL single-season record for most power play goals (he scored 19) scored by a defenseman. This performance added to his impressive defensive play and led to him being ranked second of all Canadian players in terms of both points and goals amassed. It is no surprise then that the Edmonton Oilers snapped him up to play for them, the contract he signed was worth $27,000,000 over a five year period. This is one player to watch, despite a few bumps along the road, he is hotly tipped for the future. Figure Stats Measures 5½ inches at top of helmet. Articulated at neck, wrists and thighs. Includes stick, puck and 6-inch by 3½-inch base.

   Emery’s NHL career began in 2005 and won record numbers of games, getting off to an explosive start. During the 2006 Winter Olympics he took the place of Dominik Hasek as the starting goalie. In the next few seasons he earned himself the nickname ‘Sugar Ray’ for his constant fighting, earning him many penalties and a fierce reputation. In 2006, Emery became famous internationally for the controversy raised over his mask. A huge boxing fan, Emery had the face of Mike Tyson painted onto it, unfortunately reminding the public of Tyson’s notorious rape convictions. He only wore the mask for one game (a 5-0 loss against the Bruins). His latest mask features the face of Muhammed Ali. Figure Stats Stands 5 3/8 inches at top of helmet, 5¾ inches at highest point (right elbow). Articulated at neck, wrists and thighs. Includes stick, puckand 6-inch by 3½-inch base.

   Staal’s career with the Pittsburgh Penguins began when he signed a contract with them in 2006. He then played in the 2006-2007 NHL season, scoring early on the season and remaining consistent throughout. The best was yet to come however, and Staal impressed critics and fans alike by becoming the youngest player in league history to score TWO shorthanded goals in one game. He was also the youngest player to score on a penalty shot in an NHL match. This set the bar for Jordan Staal and it was generally accepted that more great things would be seen from this young player. He certainly hasn’t let down his fans… in early 2007 he scored his first hat trick, and set another record – he was now the youngest player to score a hat trick in the NHL. He was just 18 and a half at the time, a fantastic achievement for a player of this age and just beating the previous record holder. But he didn’t stop there. He tied the NHL rookie record by scoring his league-leading sixth shorthanded goal. The Elias Sports Bureau confirms that Jordan Staal is the only player ever in NHL history to have scored more than one shorthanded goal before he reached the grand old age of 19 years! Figure Stats Measures 6½ inches at top of helmet. Articulated at neck, wrists and thighs. Includes stick, puck and 6-inch by 3½-inch base.

   Sundin was resigned to the Leafs in summer 2007 and scored his 400th goal on November 27th of that year, the first Leaf player to reach that pinnacle. Less than one year later and Sundin was celebrating his 549th career goal. Despite the rumours to the contrary, Sundin claims he will always play as a Maple Leaf and wants to finish his career as one. Figure Stats Measures 6 inches at top of helmet. Articulated at neck, wrists and thighs. Includes stick, puck and 6-inch by 3½-inch base.
