Sports action figures have been around for many years - as far back as the 1980s Hartland Plastics issued figures of baseball greats like Mickey Mantle and Yogi Berra.
From 1987 to 2001 Starting Lineup figures from Kenner/Hasbro were the most widely produced and collected figures in the hobby. In 2001 McFarlane Toys released Hockey and Football figures, following with figures from all four major sports in 2002. Since then McFarlane Sports Picks have been the top choice for sports action figure collectors.
Over that time several other lines of sports figures have been released: Pro Specialties' Gladiators of the Gridiron, Gracelyn Re-plays, GameBreakers by Upper Deck, and Headliners to name a few. Hartland issued more figures in the 1990s and early 2000s as well. In 2006 Upper Deck issued the first of their All-Star Vinyl figures and initial releases have been extremely well received.
