Skycast Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 They pretty much killed it with the Panthers, but fell short in my opinion on the Breakers when it comes to the nostalgia factor. It's a solid look, but it pales in comparison to the vibe of the original in my opinion. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LogoFan Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Wish they'd gone with the lighter blue for the jersey like the old unis but it's solid and pretty much what I expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I think the new version does a better job of representing a wave. As much as I enjoyed the old one, it seemed almost bird- or ghost-like. I really like how the new version takes some cues from the Panthers in having the wave start from the back and really immerse the helmet. Well done. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Maulers and Breakers' pants look slightly off between home and away too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavybass Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Did I actually predict correctly what the Panthers were going to look like? Say it ain't so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDAWG Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 So the USFL likes to release things in 4. Why not release all of it at once? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavybass Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Why did the Gamblers add smoke blue? Correction: Two different shades of grey are being used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been releasing one per hour and have publicized the release times. I think it's pretty smart. Keeps its audience engaged throughout the day. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original Panthers used champagne, which was sort of a hybrid of gold and silver. This picture makes it look like the helmets and pants are more directly gold, which I think throws the whole look off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschoolvikings Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 The original Breakers uniform is one of my all time favorite uniforms... ever. These are pretty nice, but I would've preferred the sky blue as the main jersey color, and the royal as secondary/trim. Still nice, tho. 4 Quote http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowld Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Stars coming up next and then we're all done. Seems like an awful lot of Red teams. 6/8 teams use some shade of Red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a legacy/nostalgia look that was solid and a little tweak would have been plenty. Instead, we got what we have now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frosty06306 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Looking forward to the Breakers/Panthers. Pretty good job overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LogoFan Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 7-1 Breakers are very good and I absolutely love the new Stars' look. The only one I didn't like was the Maulers. They have the weakest logo but I was hoping a solid uni would save the day but it blows chunks...it's a real skunker. Not sure why they didn't try to stay truer to the originals or why gray was dropped from the design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowld Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Not a fan of the Stars at all. My initial rankings would be- 1. Michigan 2. New Orleans 3. New Jersey 4. Birmingham 5. Tampa Bay 6. Houston 7. Pittsburgh 8. Philadelphia 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
