Spurs Russian Dolls

[Five and In]

I'm sure these will divide opinion

Rescued from Ebay last week, I really like them and they are quite unique.

A set I bought from a shop in Prague about 6 years ago.

Great likenesses!!

[Five and In]

How funny wdy11
Mine are King, Keane, Defoe, Robinson & Lennon.
I bought a small bundle of stuff that I didn't want (flags etc) to get the dolls and will sell the rest to make my purchase of the dolls zero.


JimLFC - i agree, I had no idea that Paul Robinson and Jermain Defoe were twins!!

I uploaded this image to my flickr site in 2009 and the caption today would be:

"Soon there will be none!" not to difficult to work out especially after his display at the Emirates today where had he not been so greedy we could have been in a winning position.

There is a shop near the square in Prague that has a large selection of all clubs in Russian Dolls, even my team Chesterfield

These are great, who cares if they look like The Drifters.



No seriously, I like them, they're very quirky.
I'm not fussed on the rears, would've looked better left blank I feel, but the fronts (and that's the main bit, let's be honest) are great.

Lovely little ornamental.

I recently saw a friend post a set of Russian dolls he'd purchased in Budapest for a laugh: they were based on middle eastern 'leaders', with Saddam hosting Bin Laden, who contained a young looking Ayotollah Khomeini, then Yasser Arafat, who inevitably had in him... a banana.

These are my Palace ones



Jedinak and Ledley should have had big beards at the time, and Speroni (goalkeeper) should be wearing a different colour shirt to red and blue stripes, but its not the end of the world.

I got them signed myself by waiting by the players car park before home games, in the days before the team arrived by coach and don't sign anything now

Haha, great collecion guys! I guess it's called Babooshka, I saw many of these in Russia but I haven't known you can buy football dolls

A mate in Prague bought me ones for Southend so probably the same place

I also have an early 2000's Palace set, and a Russia 2018 (World Cup) set.

There is no such thing as too much football memorabilia or merch in my opinion.

Collect what you enjoy!
