About this figure
Identifying the sculpt is straightforward once you know what to look for: standing, horned demon helmet with curved horns, snarling face, right fist clenched, left hand open palm raised, muscular armored torso, segmented legs, 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.
Satan King is documented in 6 of the ten production colors (Flesh, Salmon, Purple, Dark Blue, Green, Magenta). The flesh version books around $9 in mint condition, while the magenta run is the toughest to find and trades closer to $16. As a Class B figure it saw a shorter production run than the commons; clean examples take some patience to source.
