MEXICO SERIES 4

Mexico Series 4 consists of 24 figures, 16 of which are in Latin America Series 2 with the MC codes being identical, the 4 Televisa Reporters from Mexico Series 2, which are Pelaez, Aspe, Gurwitz and Sarmiento, with their MC codes being identical to those previously used.

 

 

The remaining 4 figures in this series are exclusive to Mexico Series 4, they are Deco in Barceloa away kit, Adriano in Inter Milan away kit, Dado Prso in Rangers home kit and goal keeper Brad Friedel for Blackburn Rovers. Their MC codes are all unique to Mexico Series 4, however in terms of figure appearance Deco, Prso and Friedel do appear in other series, however Adriano in this kit was never released in any other series.

​

​

Appearance wise the boxes and CDU look almost identical to those of Latin America Series 2, hence why I feel the existence of Latin America Series 2 was either over looked or simply not properly recognised, simply as it was mistaken for Mexico Series 4.

​

​

The figures were released in single mystery boxes, the same style as the ones used for the pther Mexican Series. Each mystery box contained one randomly packed MicroStars figure, which could be on one of the seven base colours, which are Green, Red, Blue, White, Silver, Gold and Black, and came with a piece of chewing gum.

 

 

A collectors information leaflet also came issued with the figures which detailed those available in the series, with the text being in Spanish. The boxes were released inside a CDU (Counter Display Unit) with 18 boxes per CDU.

Obtaining a box and collector's leaflet for this series is incredibly difficult, with thanks going to Olly Speed for providing the images of the single box and collector's information leaflet. I do require images of the CDU if any collector can provide those, please email me: craig@corinthianarchive.co.uk
