N.F.L. Action Team Mates

[kryptosmaster]

And Rich if you ever want to sell that Bills let me know.

You know I've thought about it and have had offers in the past when I first dug it out but it's kind of one of those things that I've had so long and only have the one that I just find it hard to part with. Ya know?
It's not like I'm really enjoying it or displaying it but I just know I have it and the memories attached to it. I hang onto a lot of sentimental stuff like that for some reason.

Totally understand. I have a few pieces like that hanging out in my collection.

I'm guessing that the second figure from the right on the second row in that pic is Ken Anderson (#14) of the Bengals.

Nice find, J.B.!

Kenny, indeed.

One of the few QB's to ever rock the full 'stache.

As a Steelers Fan, I've always had a natural hatred for the Bengals. I remember as a youth watching a Steelers Bengals game when one of our defenders got a hold of Anderson's two-bar facemask and twisted it about 180 degrees. It was one of the ugliest injuries I've ever witnessed, and that's including the Theismann injury.
I was glad to see Kenny walk away from that. I think the 'stache saved him.

NFL Team Mates

I had a lot of these on EBay and my account was hacked,I'm off Ebay until they clear the mess up... I have the Colts, Seahawks, Buccaneers, Raiders, Steelers, Oilers, and Cowboys figures and 2 bases, four stands one set of white number stickers and one instruction booklet. Anyone interested??

I can't seem to get the images to post... Here is a link to the gallery

I still have 3 from childhood: Steelers, Cowboys, and Broncos. I've had to restring them as the rubber bands rotted. I wish someone besides me would repro the facemasks. I only have 1 intact, the other two cracked in half.

Great toy concept; with the choice of numbers and skin color, you could collect and display your favorite team's Offense or Defense.

As a kid I never did get to order one through the catalog, but did pick up a couple (one loose one minty boxed) of Steelers through ebay. Here is Bradshaw handing off to Rocky Bleier:

And then making a solo appearance at my Steelers vs. Cardinals SuperBowl Party (which included a wardrobe malfunction ):

Wow! Thanks for sharing those pictures. Talk about a trip down memory lane. That was one of my favorite pictures in the Sears catalog next to the Mego's of course. I always looked at these in awe as a kid and never owned any of them.


Seeing these pictures and reading this thread now make sme want to start collecting them to. I have a little bit of a start....


Believe it or not just the other day I went into an antique mall and found some of these rascals in a baggie. Talk about dejavu. I will go snap a picture and get it posted up here in a minute or two.

Holy Cow!!!!

The Seahawks and The Buccaneers were baby franchises when those figures came out (yeah...I remember a 26 team league and have the sheets, curtains, poster and trash can to prove it!!!). The Oilers have gone bye-bye. What a cooool pic.

Are those for sale???

[livnxxxl]

Ok here is the pictures that I just took. I just now took these out of the bag since I bought them. They also came with three packs of Close Encounters cards and some other unknown little figure.









Looks like I got a complete Cardinals Jim Hart and a complete Cowboys Roger Staubach. Yeah I am pretty happy right now. Those are two of my favorite players of that era to boot. Unbelievable!!

And as you will see in evidence exhibit B that I found some "other" goodies to while shopping there.

Me to. I "think" I still have my sheet and curtain set stored away somewhere. ???

[saildog]

^^ Dang, Dude...nice pick up! Surely, those can be cleaned up a little and restrung(??? maybe...I'm sure there is a fix).

You all are making me want to collect these real bad.

Cool!!!

I never had the foresight to hang on to those things, but my awesome Mom did.

When I came around to wishing I still had that kind of stuff, she said, "Guess what!".

Thanks! I guess you could say luck was really with me that day. What is even more amazing is that there is this thread about it the next day. Or atleast this is the first time I seen the thread anyway. It looked like the thread was recently bumped from the past.

Anyway....

The packaged Close Encounter cards and a few loose Mego's was what initially drew my attention as I like to collect MIP trading cards. Then upon close inspection I knew I remembered these guys. Like most I had not idea what they were called. I had actually forgot the name of them until I read this thread. I guess I could have looked in my old Sears catalog if all else failed.

This is so cool! Thanks again for this thread guys and gals!

Looks like you got lucky as well. I bet it was like Christmas all over again. I am glad that your Mom kept those child hood memories. I love stuff and stories like that.

I know you will figure out a way to restore them and when you do, I want to see some pics! Deal??
