Mark McGwire 1998 Headliners Commemorative Figure

This is a boxed collectible figure of Major League Baseball player Mark McGwire, produced under the 'Headliners' brand. The figure commemorates his 1998 season, specifically highlighting his 70 home runs. The packaging is a red cardboard box with a clear plastic window on the front, allowing full visibility of the figure and its internal display. The box features 'HEADLINERS' prominently at the top, along with 'XL' and 'AGES 4 AND UP' indications. Inside, the figure of Mark McGwire is depicted with a beard and appears to be in a batting stance or holding a bat (partially obscured). He is wearing a white uniform, which is consistent with his time with the St. Louis Cardinals. A large red baseball is positioned in front of him. The internal display background includes '62', 'MARK McGWIRE', '1998 HOME RUN BAKER'S SEASON RECORD', and '70' printed in shades of yellow and brown, highlighting his record-breaking achievement. The figure is mounted on a clear plastic base, which itself rests on a black base. The bottom front of the box clearly states 'MARK McGWIRE COMMEMORATIVE FIGURE' and 'DISPLAY CASE INCLUDED!'. The overall condition of the box appears to be good with some minor shelf wear visible, but no major damage such as rips or crushing is evident. The clear plastic window is intact. This item dates to the era of McGwire's 1998 season, placing its manufacturing around the late 1990s. The figure itself seems to be made of a rigid plastic or resin.
