FUN FACTS, HISTORY, ATTRIBUTES (ie size, year of production, color,scarcity, etc) WHAT FOLLOWS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING SPECIFIC in this listing.
NFL Action Team Mate 1977 Football
Field Stadium Accessory - Goal Post Base
Sold solely via Montgomery Wards, JC Penney and Sears catalogs, these action figures were
produced by Pro Sports Marketing and are pretty scarce to find today. Made
to compete with Megos, they were produced in extremely small numbers.
They're approximately 7 1/2 inches tall with moveable limbs held together
with rubber bands. Each figure came with a "play book", football, and a
stand with the NFL logo. Made long before Kenner's popular Starting Lineup
figures - they were decades ahead of their time. A field and benches were
produced for the figures - both are VERY tough to find. The set consists
of figures from all the (then current) 28 NFL teams. Here's a page
from the JC Penney Catalog:
This listing is for one of the goal post bases to the incredibly scarce Football
Field/Stadium sold to accompany the Action Team Mates.
