The 2015-16 Imports Dragon NHL figures mark the start of a new era of collectible toys for the sport. After more than a decade of McFarlane figures, the license has moved. And Imports Dragon is being very ambitious with it.
Almost 40 players are slated to get six-inch figures in 2015-16 under the official name of Premium Sports Artifacts. They'll be distributed in four separate waves that have at least six figures each.
While most of hockey's biggest names are in the lineup, there are also some second-tier players. This is particularly true of the Canadian clubs. As far as rookies go, Connor McDavid is the only one announced so far.
Like McFarlane Sports Picks, the 2015-16 Imports Dragon NHL figures take a highly detailed approach. They come with a base that looks like ice and has the player's name and number on the front.
For dealers, figures will be distributed in both mixed-player and player-specific cases.
In addition to the larger figures, a 3-inch version is available as part of an interactive game. Along with a larger checklist, the smaller figures feature short-printed options.

The face likenesses are atrocious, no chases, player and team selections are mediocre at best….. you watch, this product will make us long for the glory days of TMP’s product.
All the faces are the same too. It’s like a TMP sculpt with an SLU head and a non-paint plastic molded component that turned the hobby on its ear only a few years ago, right before TMP jumped the shark.
Potential is there, but looks like garbage for now. same gripes collectors had with TMP before all their ‘restructuring’.

These look more like toys than sculpts. The faces are like dolls, and the details (such as the creases in the jerseys), which made the McFarlanes so desirable are either missing or greatly simplified. The poses are stiff and lifeless. Kind of halfway between the McFarlanes and SLUs. This stuff is OK for kids, or for those who are not too demanding. As for the rest of us, might as well just keep dusting the old McFarlanes, and remembering the good old days. They made some awesome figures!

This is by far the very best figurine product ever released. Imports Dragon are here to stay. Good luck to them

I bought Tavares. His face look like Tavares face. Comparable to the McFarlane one.

I just got the Drew Doughty, and it looks nice. Imports Dragon also has the MLB license, and will be putting baseball figures out this year: http://www.clarktoys.com/imdr20mlb6fi.html
I hope they do a Clayton Kershaw!

I have tried 3 times with my credit card to purchase Connor McDavid figure, the one that is 21.99.
I put my information in and hit continue and nothing happens. What do you think is the problem?
What am I doing wrong. Thanks
