HibeeJibee Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 4 minutes ago, The Mantis said: these 3D plastic figures were known as ‘Continental’. They were the very latest and cost a bit extra. My first set was about 1970 and the players were flat sort of celluloid things See: http://www.peter-upton.co.uk/sub12.htm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mantis Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Here’s a celluloid team but there were cardboard ones before that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dindeleux Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Not sure if it’s been mentioned but I had a game that was operated by magnets underneath your table/bit of plywood.This must’ve been sometime around 1993-95. I’ll try to find a picture of it. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dindeleux Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Maybe it wasn’t magnets because this popped up and I think this might be the game I’m referring to. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A game called super soccer from the 1960s in the closest I can find onlinehttp://www.oldfootballgames.co.uk/index.asp?pageid=338190 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Similar to a one my dad had. Would've been 1950s/60s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 I had 6 subbuteo teams Scotland, West Germany , Brazil from Italia 90 and.1991/92 and 92/93 United and for some unknown reason Motherwell. Anyway as exciting as getting new teams was or even investing in the spring loaded goalies I think the happiest I ever was or ever will be in my life was purchasing a pack of multi coloured Mitre Deltas from John Menzies in the Murraygate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you combined your subbuteo set with one of those 4ft kids snooker tables from Argos you had an excellent waist height stand for your action with bumpers to stop the ball flying off! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkoRaj Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Maybe it wasn’t magnets because this popped up and I think this might be the game I’m referring to. I think it is a magnet that stuck the ball to the player. Then to kick it you aimed and pressed down on the player to release it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herman Hessian Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 an italian subbuteo site - check out the galleries of hand-painted kits - some amazing stuff in there (i know they're all hand painted, but these are done by some real hardcore, stickler for accuracy nerds - detailed badges and all sorts ) http://oldsubbuteo.forumfree.it/?f=4110666 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Sorry but Dundee were better than Ipswich in 1962 - remember who reached the European Cup semis and who didn't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
