About this figure
Identifying the sculpt is straightforward once you know what to look for: standing, legs apart, arms at sides with large hands, bull horns on head, snarling fanged face, muscular bare torso, studded belt, briefs, boots. Like every genuine figure in the line, originals carry the “Y/S·N·T” foot stamp — a soft or missing stamp is the quickest way to spot a reproduction.
Terri-Bull is documented in 7 of the ten production colors (Flesh, Salmon, Orange, Purple, Dark Blue, Light Blue, Magenta). The flesh version books around $6 in mint condition, while the magenta run is the toughest to find and trades closer to $11. As a Class C common it turns up regularly in lots and bins, which makes it an easy early checkmark — condition, not scarcity, drives its price.
