A new season offers a fresh start and the 2017-18 Imports Dragon NHL hockey figures make good use of this with another batch of choices. Among the options are current superstars and the debut of multiple Vintage Hockey figures for Wayne Gretzky.
Although several players were already featured in the 2016-17 or 2015-16 sets, there are still many new faces. Perhaps most notable, Patrik Laine and Auston Matthews, the top rookies from 2016-17, enter the ID figure world for the first time.
Fans will also likely be excited for Vintage Hockey legends figures for Gretzky and Gordie Howe. These both come in base versions and limited jersey color variants. Gretzky even has different figures for his time with the Edmonton Oilers and New York Rangers.
While the full 2017-18 Imports Dragon NHL Hockey Figures checklist is not officially set, the tentative list is provided below and a gallery with figure images can be viewed using the tab above.

I rate the NHL products from Imports dragon a 3. I really like the Mats Naslund figure idea. And it is so nice to see Weber in a Habs jersey. That’s right, I said it. The hockey figures are not as nice looking as Mcfarlane. The figures look too rounded off (not enough waves in the jersey). The skates on these figures look like ficsher price quality. Particularly the skate laces. They only go parallel, but do not cross diagonally. I would like to see this improvement in the future. As well, it would be great to see 3D version of the laces on the jerseys. The decal laces on the jerseys makes them look really cheap. If both these things are remedied, I will buy a lot more of these figures. Currently, I have bought non. Also, please make Weber in a red Habs jersey. He is the man!!!!!!!!!!
