I have this dream of creating a line of baseball action figures. Unfortunately lack of sculpting and sewing skills keep me from making this happen. Anyways here is my idea:
Pre ww2 baseball action figures (hal chase, bobby Wallace, riggs Stephenson, etc.) built like the old six inch GI Joe guys with movable limbs. Have real wool uniforms. Removable hats gloves bats etc. Comes with a little reprint card (or better yet a miniature unopened box or pack that you can open and get a surprise card like a little sweet caporal box or cracker jack or unopened 1933 goudey pack. Could have little stadiums that are sold at a premium. I know mcfarland has made a few but I'm not crazy about them. Too much statue and not enough playability. Of course this is a small market so the number produced and price per could be an issue. Just seeing if I'm the only dork here into this. Looking for any and all feedback. |

Could also sell little stands for the action figure that would have a sleeve to display a vintage card. Would be a neat way to show off an old card.

Sean,
Cool idea. Would the Chase come with the retractable arm that moves away when a ball is rolled at it? Perhaps a two pack with the rare companion gambler figure? How about Cobb with detachable flying spikes? Mark

Love the retractable arm idea for chase! He could also come with a wallet full of money and a pool cue too! Also he could have the trophy from his t206 card too! The sharpened spikes could be an accessory for players like kid elberfield and Joe medwick as well! Mike donlin could have a tuxedo because he's going to a Broadway show. Rube waddell could have little windup toys to keep him amused. Ok how can we mke this happen? |
