About this figure
Identifying the sculpt is straightforward once you know what to look for: standing, arms out with open hands at sides, long flowing hair parted at center, muscular bare torso, wide belt, trunks, bandaged/wrapped 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.
Buffaloman (E) is documented in 5 of the ten production colors (Flesh, Orange, Dark Blue, Green, Magenta). The flesh version books around $26 in mint condition, while the magenta run is the toughest to find and trades closer to $46. As a Class A rare it anchors many want lists — mint examples move quickly when they surface.
