UK action figures

[sportspm]

I know that’s not real and it’s funny when you zoom in on the face, but I’m wondering if this will become a thing. It used to be illegal but ofcourse almost anything goes now. It could generate a lot of nil income for players. I would guess that UK would sell more than most, if not all, on player action figures.

I saw some old MLB ones from the early 90's in an antique shop last week.

Somebody with some 3D printing skills could make a fortune doing this, if you could work deals to get approval from the universities to use the Kentucky(other schools) trademarking.

I would be interested if these ever became a thing.

 

[BlueSince92]

Take my money!!!

[Kentucky fan 1989]

I would play with them. And yes I am 35 years old.

They should make one with a basketball goal, Wheeler going up for a layup, and the ball stuck to the bottom of the backboard.

I'll take a Pope bobblehead to add to my collection.

That's SWEET!!!

I still have my Antoine Walker double pack in his Celtics and Kentucky uniforms.

I would buy this in a heartbeat. A Todd McFarlane one would be even cooler.

 

[FirewithFire]

This is a good forward thinking idea that could give UK an edge in the market. Players would love to have input on their own figure.

Someone forward this to UK's NIL / marketing department.

Get a 3D printer and modify an existing CAD file to make your own.

Yeah I have an unopened Ken Griffey Jr. Starting Lineup from the early 90's. 😂

The epitome of NIL, literally.

I'd put one inside my PC

Well since you put it like that,
I'm on it. 😎

I’m a digital character sculptor. If anyone has any Uk contacts and wants to maybe tag team a figure project reach out. No joke.

You should absolutely reach out to the UK NIL dept with your portfolio and the pitch/concept.

Tying it to NIL is the best chance of getting the trademark approval

Good idea 👍🏼

Cad isn’t a good program for that. Need a modeling program like 3dStudio Max or Maya. Not sure if the open source programs like Blender would do it.

Regardless, it’s a great idea. You know collectors would buy a whole team, year by year. Championship teams might become collectors items worth something. But would definitely raise some NIL money for the players.

I’m your guy 👀

These would be cool to display in the mancave if they were to ever be produced. Starting Lineup in 2022 did announce they were making a comeback in manufacturing figures after 21 years.

 

[Wildcats1st]

Looks like a Smurf or a wwf rubber wrestler instead of an action figure

Uh, this is a little bit creepy.

I had one of those nail

[ThunderCat98]

First thing I thought of.

ffs

 

[Someguywhodoesntlikeyou]

I will pay 200 dollars cash money for a Roger Harden action figure

 

[CaptainBoogerBuns]

I wonder if "Mean Gene" regretted this one

 

[trueblujr2]

Uh, this is a little bit creepy.

Creepy in what way. Is it much different than a bobblehead? Grown men saying they will actually play with them might be a little on the creepy side, LOL. but as collector pieces, it's no different than a bobblehead.

Clear violation of the 2nd Commandment

Can’t they both be creepy?

I’m sure many find adult bobblehead collecting to be weird as well.
