You Too Can Hold Gary Cheever in Your Hand!

Does anyone remember those Starting Lineup figurines? My personal one was Darren Puppa. The combination of a weird name, cool mask, and his position, made him my personal favorite (next was Patrick Roy). Anyway, those figures always were conservative with the masks. Either they were blank or they had a little team logo on them.

What I'm trying to get to is this. Imagine those on steroids, and you get McFarlanes. Most of you probably have seen these but if you haven't you must. Great blend of current and past masks including:

Grant Fuhr (Maple Leafs, Oilers)
Bernie Parent
Ryan Miller
Jose Theodore (With Winter Classic Beanie)

And my personal three favorites:
Tony Esposito (Canadians, Blackhawks)
Gary Cheevers

Many of these are available on eBay, or any local toy store.
