Hi guys,

I have just bid on and won an eBay auction for a couple of Boston Redsox
minifigs.
(http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1652103744)

According to the seller, these figures are from a lego promotion that got
cancelled. Does anyone have any further information about this cancelled
set?

I don't know if it is genuine or not - to be honest I don't mind because I
collect minifigs and I like the look of it, but I was just interested in
knowing a bit more about it if anyone knew.

Hope you can help - thanks!

I've seen one of these figs in person (not surprising, since I live in Boston).
they are definitely genuine and were given away at the park at least once.

Note that I'm not saying that these aren't from a second, cancelled giveaway.

What isn't clear is whether the Red Sox logo was screened on by LEGO, or placed
by a third party on blank figures supplied by LEGO (or through some other
manner).
