JAPAN MINIATURES SERIES 5

Japan Miniatures Series 5 was a real mix in terms of the figures included, from the 35 figures 12 were exclusive to the series, their MC codes were not used as part of any other series or release.

 

 

14 of the figures were released in UK Series 8, one from UK Series 10, 4 featured in the MicroDome Managers Edition on a Gold base, 2 were included in the UK PowerShot Version 2 on Green & Gold base, with one being included in the 5 pack and another in the 11 pack.

​

​

The regular version featured 34 figures, 27 in home kit, 5 Special Edition away kits and 2 Chaser figures, which were Fabrizio Miccoli in the eye catching Pink away kit of Juventus, and Belozoglu Emre in Inter Milan away kit. 

​

​

There was also an Extension version produced, which featured the same 34 figures but with the Extension Chaser added, which was Pavel Nedved in Juventus Third kit, this figure is incredibly hard to find.

​

​

The figures were released in single mystery boxes, each mystery box contained one randomly packed MicroStars figure, which could be on one of the six base colours, which are Green, Red, Blue, White, Silver and Gold. The extension edition also had it's own sinlge box, which featured the Extension branding accross it.

​

​

A collectors information leaflet also came issued with the figures which detailed those available in the series, with the text being in Japanese, with an updated version also being included in the Extension edition. The boxes were released inside a CDU (Counter Display Unit) , with the distributor for the series being New Wave, who's store was called Foot Circle.
