MCFARLANE TOYS TO SPONSOR NHL ALL-STAR GAME

See Them at Trading Card and Memorabilia Show Jan. 26-27 in Atlanta

McFarlane Toys announced that it will be a sponsor of the 2008 NHL All-Star Game Trading Card and Memorabilia Show presented by Upper Deck and McFarlane Toys. This year's event will be in Atlanta at the CNN Center on Jan. 26-27, 2008. The show will be open Saturday from 8AM-7PM and Sunday from Noon-6PM.

Their Marian Hossa figure is the company’s second NHL Event exclusive; last year's Mike Modano figure debuted during All-Star Weekend in Dallas. McFarlane says the Modano figure surpassed everyone's expectations, selling out early into the second day. The company encourages fans and collectors to arrive early, as no limits will be set on the amount of figures available for purchase. They will be bringing a limited production run of 3,000 figures to the show and selling them for $15, but they will only accept cash for payment.

The NHL All-Star Game will be played Sunday, January 27, 2008 at 6 PM EST at Philips Arena, in Atlanta, GA.
