This Terrelle Pryor Stuff Isn't Getting Out of Hand

Two sport wunderkid Terrelle Pryor occupies a favored spot in the masturbatoria of college football and basketball recruiters the nation round. Add to that list amateur toy makes, as Mondesi's House points to a story about some guy who fashioned an few action figures of the high school athlete out of a McFarlane Vince Young figure. Not what it elicits more: groans or "they all look like" jokes.

A North Hills man came up with the idea to carve out a Pryor figurine. Kevin Main, who recently moved here from Cincinnati and heard about Pryor through some co-workers at Mellon Bank, makes the figures as a hobby.

He never had made a figure for a high school player, mainly concentrating on minor-league baseball players.

"I started hearing about this Terrelle Pryor kid, so I Googled him and read about all the hype surrounding his football career," said Main, 31, a sports enthusiast and autograph collector. "I thought it would be cool to make him. I looked at a few photos and decided I would make a couple figures."

Main simply took a McFarlane figure of Tennessee Titans quarterback Vince Young, scraped and sanded off certain spots and repainted it in Jayhawks red, white and blue - with Pryor's unique features.

McFarlane said they won't sue the guy so long as he isn't selling them. And why would he? Those minor league figures have to be moving units. Not to mention the new line of GM dolls he has planned.
