Donkey Kong Chest Slammin' Donkey Kong & Kiddy Kong Action Figure Set

The item is a "Donkey Kong Chest Slammin' Donkey Kong & Kiddy Kong" action figure set, still sealed within its original blister packaging. The figures are made of molded plastic, displaying the distinct characteristics of the Donkey Kong and Kiddy Kong characters from the video game franchise. Donkey Kong is depicted in his traditional brown fur with red shorts, posed as if about to chest slam. Kiddy Kong is also brown, wearing blue overalls, and appears to be in a similar action pose. An accessory, possibly a small bottle or flask, is also visible. The packaging features vibrant graphics with a jungle theme and the "Donkey Kong" logo prominently displayed at the top. The background of the card art is green with silhouettes of trees, creating a dense jungle atmosphere. The figures are clearly visible through the transparent plastic blister. There are no obvious signs of significant damage to the figures themselves. However, the cardboard backing shows some minor wear consistent with retail handling and storage, including slight creasing or edge wear, particularly around the bottom left corner. The plastic blister appears intact with no visible cracks or yellowing, indicating good preservation. The overall presentation suggests it is a vintage or retro collectible from the Donkey Kong franchise, likely from the mid-to-late 1990s based on the character designs and 'Chest Slammin'' branding. There are no obvious maker's marks visible on the figures themselves, but the packaging would likely contain manufacturer information (e.g., Nintendo, Playmates Toys, etc.) on the reverse, which is not visible here. The quality of craftsmanship appears standard for mass-produced PVC action figures of that era.
