About this figure
Identifying the sculpt is straightforward once you know what to look for: standing, both fists raised at shoulders, reptilian/dinosaur head with wrinkled snout, muscular bare torso, thick legs, long tail, clawed feet. 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.
Bazookara is documented in 5 of the ten production colors (Flesh, Salmon, Red, Light Blue, Green). The flesh version books around $30 in mint condition, while the salmon run is the toughest to find and trades closer to $47. As a Class A rare it anchors many want lists — mint examples move quickly when they surface.
