Di Matteo, Lazio

Just a quick little post before I go to bed.

Only one pic tonight, and it's Di Matteo in Lazio colours.

This was back in the days when I had time to just pic a figure out of my box of spares, and do a repaint that took my fancy.

In case you don't know, this Di Matteo is one of a promotional set of figures (including Vieira, Seaman... and some others) that are made for the phrase 'dime a dozen'! Which was one of the reasons for doing this. The others? I hadn't done it before, and I thought there would probably be someone, somewhere that would want it for their collection. 

(I was right)

Another little bit of trivia about this one... I had to watch a YouTube video of Lazio in the 90s to find out what shirt number to put on it!!

Lazio x4

As I'm up too early on a Saturday morning, I thought I'd keep the momentum going!

Here's a post that isn't international kits, but still has an overseas flavour! 4 recent-ish Lazio figures!

I liked how these ended up- check out the gold and white trim round the collar and cuffs on the top 2; definitely my favourite bit!

Other comments: I literally had no idea that Nani played for Lazio, and a goalkeeper wearing number 70 is just obscene. That's all.
