Go Pack Go Part II: Custom Green Bay Packer McFarlane Figures

I recently finished a large batch of Custom McFarlane Green Bay Packers.

Clarke Hinkle • Fullback (1932-41)

Clarke Hinkle was one of the most versatile players in league history, playing fullback, linebacker, punter & place-kicker.

In 1940 and '41, Hinkle led the NFL in field goals made, hitting 9-of-14 and 6-of-14, respectively.

Hinkle was a fierce linebacker, gaining a reputation as one of the few players powerful enough to bring down Chicago Bears great Bronko Nagurski.In fact, Hinkle so won his rival's respect that Nagurski delivered his induction speech at Canton in 1964.

Hinkle was named to the NFL's All-Time Two-Way Team in 1994.




































































Tramon Williams • CB (current)


Tramon had 6 interceptions in the regular season but it was his three on road during the Playoffs that inspired the first custom. Tramon ended the Eagles comeback by intercepting Michael Vick in the end zone to secure the Packers a win in the Wild Card playoff game.

In the Packers' second playoff game in Atlanta against the Atlanta Falcons Williams had two interceptions in the first half. The first of these was a touchdown-saving interception in the Packers' own end-zone, the second was an interception just before halftime which Williams returned 70 yards for a touchdown.






















































































































































































B.J. Raji • Nose Tackle (current)

Nicknamed "The Freezer", Raji was a first round draft pick by the Pack in 2009 and soon became a fan favorite. On January 23, 2011, in the fourth quarter of the NFC Championship Game at Soldier Field, Raji intercepted a pass from Bears third-string quarterback Caleb Hanie and returned it 18 yards to the end zone, marking Raji's first career interception and touchdown. It also broke William Perry's NFL record for the heaviest player to score a post-season touchdown at 337 pounds.
