Day 42: 1995 SLU. This is my favorite Larkin SLU, and I don't care that it is out of the box. I started collecting in 1996, thanks to my sister who worked at Toys R Us. She was able to secure me the Chipper Jones, which was the most sought-after figure in the set, going into the hundreds of dollars in the retail market. Of course, I held onto it, and today it's worth $10. We would visit her at work when she would alert us that a new shipment had been racked on the shelves. I got the 96 Larkin, a diving pose, but this jumping pose has always been the best. When I turned over all of my SLU for my son to play with, I retained my 95 SLU for my cabinet. If you didn't know, the 89 SLU Larkin is his most sought-after. I've considered pulling the trigger multiple times but have yet to do so because I don't want to store it. My display can't hold it still in the box. So I've also considered just buying the card. Some day.
