Irrespective of how nice they look, if you’re going to release anything “designed for the 2006 World Cup soccer tournament,” you should offer a range that caters to all the finalists. From a marketing and potential sales point of view it is obviously understandable why certain countries were left out - but doing so is still poor form in my opinion. Well, hopefully a more comprehensive range will be released in time for the tournament’s kick-off!
