In 1977 the Subbuteo Sports Games Ltd
automates production.
Since the players had to be assembled and painted by machines, the first
specimens were stylized. It's the beginning of Zombie's era: players
stylized, apparently lifeless.
The first models were inserted directly into the top of the bases which
do not have printed the word Subbuteo.
So there are hand painted and machine painted players.
The introduction of this kind of players, result of an hard automatic
production, was seen as a step backward in quality of play. |
