SWEDEN SERIES
Corinthian produced a total of 8 series for the Swedish market, with the series being a rather confusing mix of re-releases from previous series, series exclusives mixed in and 2 series filled entirely with exclusive figures.​
​
​
There has always been some confusion about which Sweden Series were indeed released, with many collector's being unaware of the existence of some series.
Each Sweden Series has it's own dedicated page with full series information, here is a brief break down of each series.
​
​
-
Sweden Series 10 - 40 figures, all the same as those in UK Series 10, minus the 8 national kit figures.
​
-
Sweden Series 11 - 40 figures, all the same as those in UK Series 11, minus the 8 national kit figures.
​
-
Sweden Series 13 - 39 figures, all the same as Japan Miniatures Series 12.
​
-
Sweden Series 14 - 34 figures, 26 feature in UK Series 14, the other 8 are exclusive.
​
-
Sweden Series 15 - 40 figures, 31 feature in UK Series 15, 1 from Germany Series 3, the other 8 are exclusive.
​
-
Sweden Series 16 - 40 figures, all of which are exclusive.
​
-
Sweden Series 17 - 40 figures, all the same as those in UK Series 16, was primarily sold in Norway, which is why it has always been referred to as Norway Series 1.
​
-
Svenska Landslaget - 24 figures, Sweden National team series, all 24 figures are exclusive, also referred to as Sweden Series 17, however this is not accurate as there was in fact an actual Sweden Series 17, which is also referred to as Norway Series 1.
​
​
To the best of my knowledge, Sweden Series 12 does not exist and was never released, the information shown on the official Corinthian MicroStars website in Sweden (microstars.se) never listed any Series 12.
​
​
Selected stores that sold MicroStars in Sweden also operated what was called a 'Replacement Bench' which allowed collector's to trade their swaps for the figures on this replacement bench, to help them complete their collection.
