In February of 2000 Corinthian launched the Corinthian Collectors Club, with the membership packages containing exclusive product which was not available in any retail store, and it was not possible to purchase the World Greats from Corinthian direct either, they were only available as part of the membership package.

 

​

There were 3 different levels of membership which were Silver, Gold and Platinum, with different figures available in each level of membership.

​

 

The 4 Club Gold World Greats figures which were included in the Gold membership and made up Set C were all first time sculpts and all were true greats of the game.

​

 

Legendary goalkeeper Dino Zoff is often listed as the best keeper in football history, while that is up for debate, what is not debatable is the quality of the sculpt and would be used the future releases of the player in the ProStars range, both in the World Club Legends series and in the Juventus Legends team pack.

​

 

Hungarian icon Ferenc Puskas entered the Corinthian collection, with this sculpt only ever being used once more, as part of the International Tournament Greats series, both figures are rare and sought after, with the only other release of Puskas being in the ProStars Elite series.

​

 

The sculpt of Scotland and Manchester United legend Denis Law was a very fine one, with it being used for all further releases of the player.

​

 

Completing Set D is for me the standout figure of the set, Alfredo Di Stefano painted in the home kit of Argentina. An excellent sculpt of a true icon of the game, he would only ever be released on more time in the ProStars Series and that was in the International Tournament Greats series. This Club Gold World Greats figure has really appreciated in value and rivals Zico in terms of both price, rarity and demand within the entire Club Gold World Greats collection.

​

 

All 4 were released in a Club Gold World Greats window box, on a Gold base and coming with collector card.
