McFarlane Madden NFL 18 Ultimate Team Series 1 Figures Are a Rush

By Ryan Cracknell Cracknell | Hobby Editor

Bypassing the traditional Sports Picks line for the second consecutive year, McFarlane Madden NFL 18 Ultimate Team Series 1 figures feature the same hyper-detailed molds the company is known for.

But the partnership with the Madden video game brings another element to the mix. Each figure also includes a code for in-game content in the Madden NFL 18 video game.

It doesn’t take much to notice how the McFarlane Madden NFL 18 Ultimate Team Series 1 figures don’t have players in their traditional home or away jerseys. That’s by design. Instead, all six figures in the wave are done with Color Rush jerseys.

The first group of McFarlane figures for the 2017 season, no rookies are part of the lineup. However, there are a couple of players getting their first figures. Carson Wentz, a breakout rookie in the early part of 2016, is included. Chargers running back Melvin Gordon also makes his McFarlane debut.

Other players in Series 1 include Larry Fitzgerald, Russell Wilson, Von Miller and AJ Green.

Three variant figures are also slated to be part of the final configuration. These chase pieces will combine to land one per eight-figure hobby case.

McFarlane Madden NFL 18 Ultimate Team Series 1 figures are scheduled to release in July, 2017.
