About this figure
Identifying the sculpt is straightforward once you know what to look for: standing, laughing/grimacing face, wavy hair, both arms bent with fists raised, muscular bare torso, wrestling trunks with star emblem, 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.
Terryman (D) is documented in 7 of the ten production colors (Flesh, Salmon, Purple, Dark Blue, Light Blue, Green, 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.
