ROUND 5 RELEASES ULTIMATE COLLECTOR SERIES 10

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Markham, ON (September 12th, 2012) – Round 5 President Damon Lau announces the release of the Ultimate Collector Series 10 featuring twelve new figures. The lineup includes debut figures for UFC bantamweight champion Dominick “The Dominator” Cruz, perennial contender Chael Sonnen, heavyweight striking sensation Alistair Overeem, former WEC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis, and the first man to claim the UFC heavyweight championship belt, Mark Coleman.

The lineup also includes new figures for reigning middleweight champion Anderson Silva and former light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida. A Limited Edition Mark Coleman figure based on the Hammer’s historic performance at UFC XII: Judgment Day anchors Ultimate Collector Series 10. Each of the 750 Limited Edition figures is individually numbered and bears a sticker autographed by Coleman. The Limited Edition Coleman figures also come complete with Coleman’s original Ultiman heavyweight title belt, and are housed in vintage UFC collectible packaging.

“The characters comprising Series 10 reflect the evolution of mixed martial arts,” says Round 5 president Damon Lau. “Dominick Cruz, Anthony Pettis, and Chael Sonnen have been fighting for years. They paid their dues in the WEC before they became superstars in the Octagon. After becoming the UFC’s first heavyweight champion Mark Coleman lost three straight in the Octagon. A lot of fans said he was finished, but he resurrected his career fighting in PRIDE. Series 10 pays homage to the work ethic and sacrifice that transforms ordinary men into extraordinary fighters.”

Each figure in Ultimate Collector Series 10 arrives on shelves in collectible and protective UFC-themed packaging that includes a short bio detailing the individual fighter.

Ultimate Collector Series 10 will be available at Walmart in Canada, and Toys”R”Us in the United States. For more information go to round5.com.
