Anybody Collect Starting Lineups or Sports Figures?

[pwaldo]

I use to collect SLUs before they went out of business and I still have a nice collection of the older ones. I also have a few Headliners and some bobble heads.

So does anyone else here collect any kind of sports figures?

[Heartattaq]

I have a few of the Mcfarlane figures. I have the NHLPA Roy and Cujo. Then I have the Nabokov, and Salo as well.

I collected Starting Lineups a while back, pretty fun to collect. Not into McFarlane.

what's even cooler is there are alot of guys on the Mcfarlane forums that customize these models into any player they want. I also think some will do a player for you for a modest price, I was gonna have a selanne done until I saw the announcement that he was being released so now I will ask for a havlat

Can't wait to pick up the Zito and Prior. I already have an Iverson and Kobe.

Yeah so people do customized SLU figures and they really do very good jobs. I've never had one done but they are very cool.

I used to casually collect starting lineups until they stopped making them. Once in a while a buy a McFarlane figure now.
They are by far the coolest sports figures I have ever seen.
If anyone hasn't bought any yet but are thinking about it, I highly recommend them.

pwaldo...

yep, I've got a few:

Magic (2)

Magic-Bird one-on-one

Jerry Rice (2)

Roberto Alomar

D. Robinson

Jordans

Griffey


And some bobble heads too,

Nomar and Pedro Martinez

They sure do take up more space than your typical sports cards, lololol.

If anybody else does collect sports figures please post here because I just wanted to see if we have enough people to add a sports figure forum here.
