Starting Lineup Jose Canseco Action Figure (1988 Kenner)
CC-6 — Good
Product Description
Step up to the plate with this 1988 Kenner Starting Lineup Jose Canseco action figure, capturing the Oakland Athletics slugger during his historic MVP and Rookie of the Year season. Part of the inaugural Starting Lineup baseball series that revolutionized sports collectibles, this figure immortalizes Canseco in his classic A's uniform during the peak of Bash Brother mania.
Starting Lineup figures defined a generation of sports collecting, combining articulated action figures with trading card-style packaging. The 1988 baseball debut series featured major league stars in detailed sculpts with authentic uniforms and team logos. Canseco's figure showcases his powerful batting stance, complete with signature bat and Oakland's green and gold colors.
This example ships protected in a plastic case and displays well despite honest play from its 36-year journey. The bubble shows a dent and wrinkle at the top left corner, and the card exhibits a slight bend at the top edge—typical wear for a figure that survived the late '80s collecting boom. The CC-6 grade reflects Good condition with visible handling marks that tell the story of the Starting Lineup era.
Whether you're building a complete 1988 Starting Lineup baseball set, commemorating the 40-36 season that made Canseco a household name, or adding authenticated Oakland Athletics memorabilia to your collection, this Kenner classic delivers vintage sports nostalgia at an accessible price point.
