On May 28, McFarlane announced plans to release a trio of NFL 3-packs with a greater percentage of figures that are different than their previously issued regular versions, a mixture of HOF and current players and players from multiple teams in one pack. The photos provide additional details about what the 3-packs will include.

The Philadelphia Eagles 3-pack includes Donovan McNabb 2, Brian Dawkins, and Brian Westbrook. McNabb is a straight reissue of the NFL Series 12 version. Westbrook is a white jersey version of the figure planned for Series 15. The Brian Dawkins figure is a black jersey version of the Dawkins figure included in the Michael Vick / Dawkins 2-pack. The Westbook and Dawkins figures have not been previously scheduled or released in their respective uniform combinations.

The Dallas Cowboys Quarterback 3-pack offers a look at the QB chronology of Roger Staubach, Troy Aikman and Tony Romo. Staubach is a straight reissue of the figure planned for NFL Legends 4. Troy Aikman is shown in the alternate "double star" jersey. Romo is in the blue jersey, using the pose planned for his upcoming NFL Series 15 figure. The Aikman and Romo figures have not been previously scheduled or released in their respective uniform combinations.

The "Elite Club" Running Back 3-pack includes LaDainian Tomlinson, Larry Johnson and Shaun Alexander. This pack will showcase Johnson's first sculpt in white jersey and red pants, Alexander's second sculpt in white jersey with teal shoulder caps and Tomlinson's third sculpt in the Chargers' new powder blue uniform. All three figures will be offered in jersey combinations never available anywhere before.
