Buckle up, folks. This action figure, or part of an action figure, rather, comes with a shady history. Film critics were unimpressed by LeBron James’ “Space Jam: A New Legacy,” but collectors were instantly obsessed with the series of LeBron James action figures released in conjunction with the film.
They were so obsessed, in fact, that some of them have made a hobby out of stealing heads of the figurines and listing them on eBay. Technically, it’s possible for someone to purchase a figurine and then sell its parts, so we’ll give this seller the benefit of the doubt.
Every head listed on eBay is going for at least $1,000, going all the way up to nearly $15,000. It’s bizarre that so many people are willing to spend so much on what’s basically a broken toy.
