🏀🏀🏀1996 ALONZO MOURNING of the Miami Heat Starting Lineup/NEVER OPENED/“NEW”/FACTORY SEALED. Includes a collectors' card.🏀🏀🏀

This is the 9th year for Basketball Starting Lineups. In 1996 Kenner produced 49 "regular " National Basketball Association action figures/SLU's/dolls, some of which were "Extended Release". This also included three different Dennis Rodman cards and figurines with different colors of hair! Kenner also produced 14 "Far East Basketball" SLU's in 1996, none of which I have ever seen. By contrast, Kenner only made five basketball “regular” Starting Lineups in 1989 and a whopping 124 in 1988.

Kenner basketball SLU‘s always came in red packaging, so you could distinguish them from the blue baseball and green football SLU‘s. They were considered toys for all ages and the packages were always marked either ages four & up or later ages 4-104. They soon became collectors’ items, however, and most stopped thinking of them as simply toys.

Original owner for 26 years in smoke free, kid free home. Package is in excellent condition. Be sure to examine all photos closely, as they are an integral part of the description.

I have tried to show minor wear and tear in the photos. Colors and shapes of product may be somewhat distorted due to camera lighting and angles.

Imagine the joy I had each year discovering SLU’s in KB Toys, Walmarts and Toys R Us. Eventually, I discovered long since forgotten sports memorabilia shows at convention centers and halls. Really hard to part with my collection! Now another generation can share the “thrill of the hunt“. This time using eBay!
