Sam Snead Action Figure

Did you know that eight time Greater Greensboro Open Champion Sam Snead had his own action figure? Well it is true. Starting Lineup, a division of Kenner toys produced an action figure of Snead in 1997 as part of their "Timeless Legends" series. Other sports legends in this series include Sugar Ray Leonard, Joe Theismann, Len Dawson, Walt Frazier and Bill Walton. This toy, made in China, is for ages 4 to 104 and includes its own Sam Snead Collector Card. As action figures go, I found it lacking some detail. There is a club, but no ball and he only has four fingers on his right hand. (They painted the interlocking grip portion of his hand.) Posted by Picasa
