New SLU Acquisitions

Image
I realized something while collecting SLU baseball figures.The American League was stacked with pure power hitters in the late 80s and for most of the 90s.I've been trying to keep it even steven  but it's hard to find as many big names in the NL .That's what makes It  difficult for me to just stop collecting them.The compulsive side of me needs to balance out both leagues with as many big names as I can track down.Stay tuned as the madness is sure to continue! There's something about Kenner's SLU head sculpts that capture the essence of an action figure while staying true to the real life  players they portray.It's like,If  MLB had a  cartoon series ,this is what they'd look like.
