About this figure
Identifying the sculpt is straightforward once you know what to look for: standing, legs apart, right fist clenched, left hand open at side, mohawk/topknot hair, muscular bare torso, trunks, furry shaggy lower legs. 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.
Geronimo is documented in 5 of the ten production colors (Flesh, Salmon, Red, Purple, Dark Blue). The flesh version books around $8 in mint condition, while the dark blue run is the toughest to find and trades closer to $13. As a Class A rare it anchors many want lists — mint examples move quickly when they surface.
