About this figure
Identifying the sculpt is straightforward once you know what to look for: standing, both arms raised flexed, full helmet with slit visor, cape behind, armored chest with ridges, muscular torso, briefs, armored 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.
Robin Mask (D) is documented in 7 of the ten production colors (Flesh, Salmon, Orange, Red, Purple, Dark Blue, Magenta). The flesh version books around $8 in mint condition, while the magenta run is the toughest to find and trades closer to $14. 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.
