Innovative new model at Arsenal FC

15 June 2010 | Posted in Agencies, Soccer, Europe | By Adam Fraser

Pattni Imaginations has announced that Arsenal Football Club have signed a deal that will see a range of Arsenal-branded football action figures hit the market.

The likes of Cesc Fabregas - assuming Arsenal can hang onto him in the face of interest from Barcelona - Robin van Persie, Andrei Arshavin and Theo Walcott will star as the action figures.

This latest deal means that Pattni now has the Premier League's 'big four' of Chelsea FC, Liverpool FC, Manchester United and Arsenal FC all on board. 

The Arsenal action figures will have movable head, shoulders, arms, waist, legs, knees and ankles and are set to hit retail outlets across the UK in the autumn.

"We now have another massive club on board in the shape of Arsenal and this means that we have the Premier League's elite, which are iconic global brands, signed up for this new range," said Pattni Imaginations managing director Mayur Pattni. "I really believe this gives us a fantastic platform from which to launch our product and with football enjoying such as surge in popularity these new action figures are sure to be a crowd pleaser!"
