49ers 1983 Tonka Van and Figures

49ers 1983 Tonka Van and Figure set
Within the last couple of years I came across other collections from guys who collect other teams like the Giants, Bears, etc.  In their collections I noticed they had some toys with their team logo's made by Tonka, which dated back to 1983.  I found out that all the NFL teams had items made by Tonka back then, so I started looking around and eventually collected the two main items that Tonka made back then with each NFL teams logo and colors.

1983 Tonka 49ers Van, player and bench
First, is the 1983 Tonka Van with included a player and bench with opening sunroof and back door.  I found this collection was in great shape, but no original packing.  But still a great find for me.


New (Old) 1983 49ers Tonka "Players" figure and disk

Months later, I found a completely sealed 1983 Tonka NFL "Players" figure with plastic logo disk. Sweet!

I'm glad, now have both to complete the 1983 release of NFL teams Tonka toys.

I have 3 of these figures and trying to figure out a worth for each figure. The still have the jersey numbers, logos on helmets, stiff joints. Only can find a few bits of info or heavy worn figures on ebay.
