I hate those Russian dolls. So full of themselves.
A point of interest is that the style of the dolls is of Japanese origin.

The 2nd from the left looks likes he's getting on a bit, perhaps the maker had Movember in mind. I know money was tight around then but two of them don't even have shirt sponsors  Edit: scrub that. Just missing the lotto.

Just been in Prague with t'other half last week and we saw them too! Can't remember exactly but it was pretty much the worst lot of players you'd want to have on memorabilia like that... Prutton, Amankwaah and Cuthbert were the ones I can remember. Actually we were laughing at them in the shop and the guy rushed over with an even older one (can't remember any of those though!).
We were going to get one but then saw the price... £20 quid is a bit steep for an out-of-date homage to such crappy players!

To put you out of your misery...
I think that Coca got 1/5 and Notts in total got 4/5 - good work. Definitely an odd set of players at the time - apart from Cox (it was before Billy was prolific I think).
Funnily enough when I was taking this photo I couldn't get Ifil to stand up properly!

So you don't want to buy my 'antique' set for £500 then? I think i'm proof that if you write STFC on something - at least one idiot will buy it - in this case... ME

 I was so close to getting one - in fact, if they'd had an up-to-date one I might have done it... The older one was actually more tempting, as it had Parkin and Migz in it and the guy in the shop was offering it to me for £15. But on this occasion common sense prevailed (for once) and we spent the cash on beer instead!

In no particular order: Peacock, Paynter, Roberts, Ifil, Nicholas.
