Toy News Magazine is reporting that Upper Deck, known for their various sports and TCG trading card lines, is set to enter the toy market. Toy lines offered will vary by region.
“On a pan-European level Upper Deck has secured exclusive toy rights with companies such as Moose (Crazy Sound and Spongi), Playmates (Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s Toys) and All-in-One (Mickey Says electronic toy).
On a more regional level the company has signed distribution rights in the Benelux and German speaking markets for brands such as Bakugan and Tech Deck (Spin Master), Dinosaur King toys (Playmates) and Gormiti (Giochi Preziosi).
Following its own Huntik Trading Card Game, Upper Deck will also launch the Huntik toy line later this year featuring action figures of characters and Titans from the popular television show currently broadcasting on CITV and DisneyXD in the UK.“

Upper Deck To Produce Toys

They already produce toys.

And some Michael Jordan ones. Most of them are clearance at my TRU already.

Anyways...that is a good question. We have plenty of these at my work, so I will get a firsthand look at them tomorrow at work, and let you know. I know it's not a big deal or anything, but I'm curious too.
Ok, there is "All-Star Vinyl"...not sure if that is a company or just a name of the product that Upper Deck produces. Here is a link:
ASV NFL Series 1 9 Inch Action Figure - Patton Manning - Upper Deck - Toys "R" Us
The Tiger Woods and Michael Jordan figures seem to be made by Upper Deck, though.
