Delgado Immortalized as Met In Plastic...


Every year, Todd McFarlane, creator of the comic/movie Spawn, releases some of the most realistic action figures you will ever see. Thankfully, he has produced quite a number of Mets (Mike Piazza, Tom Glavine, Willie Mays & Tom Seaver). Last year featured one Carlos, Mr. Beltran, and this year's set, to be released in June, features another Carlos, Mr. Delgado. The picture at left is what the actual figure will look like. You can check out other sports figures at their website, www.spawn.com. Maybe next year we can have a third Carlos? As in Carlos Lee??
