Nolan Ryan, Texas Rangers, pitcher, No. 34, sculpted in his classic pre-delivery pose, leg kicked high and getting ready to unleash some ungodly heat toward the plate. Beautifully detailed figure is dressed in a period-specific uniform and equipment, and includes a pitcher's mound base.

Since we began doing sports action figures, the most common fan request has been for McFarlane Toys to create figures of retired sports legends. While a fantastic idea in theory, it has proven much more difficult from a licensing perspective. Luckily, our licensing staff persevered and we're finally able to offer our first series of sports legends in 2004. We're starting with Major League Baseball and are proud to offer the Cooperstown Collection line.
