Sammy Sosa Headliners XL Commemorative Figure

This item is a Sammy Sosa 'Headliners XL' commemorative figure, presented in its original retail packaging, which includes a display case. The figure depicts former baseball player Sammy Sosa in his Chicago Cubs pinstriped uniform, complete with a baseball bat in his hands and a batting helmet. The uniform features blue pinstripes on a white base, and his helmet is dark blue. The figure has an exaggerated head, characteristic of a bobblehead-style collectible. It stands on a gold-colored base with 'SOSA' visible on the front. The packaging is a cardboard box with a clear plastic window allowing full view of the figure. The box design prominently features the 'HEADLINERS XL' logo, 'AGES 4 AND UP' indication, and multiple references to '66 Home Runs' and '62' and '375', likely alluding to Sammy Sosa's significant baseball statistics or records. The box is predominantly blue with yellow and red accents. There is some visible creasing and wear on the cardboard packaging, particularly on the top and edges, indicating possible shelf wear or handling. The figure itself appears to be in good condition within its sealed case, showing no obvious damage or discoloration. The 'e' logo, likely for 'Equity Marketing Inc.', is visible on the bottom right of the front packaging. This collectible figure dates from an era where such sports memorabilia, particularly bobbleheads, were highly popular, likely late 1990s to early 2000s, reflecting Sosa's peak career.
