    i got this figure at a garage sale for $4. It's solid dark green rubber? with a silver spray on the front and a dark brown spray on the back.

    Thanks Sanjeev! I really like the sort of crude look of this figure, like it was hacked out of stone. Would you happen to know when it was made?

    Interesting Popy style "paper footprints" if unmarked and approx. 6" tall might be a bootleg based on the Popy "king Zarius" line - image is from the catalog of the original Popy "black king" with footprint to right. in any case cool find!!!

    The interesting thing is that the foot prints match - it might be (depending on where you picked it up) and early pre-production version - can't really tell from the lettering on the feet

    then again if it's a 2 1/2" tall figure and solid rubber (non-jointed) could be from this Popy line (but the ones I have don't have the paper footprints)

    dude, redbank? how was first night this year? I remember in high school we went once and the ball dropped on new years to a countdown shouted out by the dad/actor from Just the Ten of Us. I grew up in manasquan/belmar/wall.

    redbank rules! not as much as san francisco but I'm glad to see a little more jersey pride out there.
