I live near Memphis TN and found some at the local Toys R Us before they went out of buisness. Seen them at Walmart I believe as well. The football players are usually the more popular in my area. Ebay is a good place to find them too. The link below is all of the ones he has done so far but sometimes you can find them in other uniforms for the teams they played for.

Never seen that Milarchuk one before...kind of disturbing and cool at the same time.

A while ago, I spoke to a guy at a sports memorabilia store and he told me some of these so-called custom jobs are done by other artists or collectors who paint over and even canibalize parts from other figures to make these apparantly rare figures, or they're cheap knock-offs. He noted to me some are really good, while others are quite poor, and chances are its not really a true "McFarlane".

I had asked him this because on ebay a while back I saw a Pavel Bure in a Canucks sweater, but the only one I've ever seen is of Bure in a Rangers uniform - and something about the one being sold on ebay didn't look quite right - odds are it was a fake or someone else's custom job. I know now that he probably took the first version of the Markus Naslund figure and tried to alter it into a Bure. I'm just glad I didn't shell out the $75 the dude was asking for it.

Anyhow, I have 9 or 10 McFarlane figures myself, all lined up in my games room!
