Just 2, even though they were cheap they were hard to find - the only shop that had quantity, they were $200 - thus the picture of the Jim Chapin with all of them. He bought all the variatins they had. That was after our hedorah article, before that, I was the only person I knew of who even was looking for them.....

It looks crushed.
I just saw this figure at a friends house, and if I remember right it has a hollow bottom.

In the second pic it looks pushed in, I think it should look more rounded (convex).
If I'm right about it being open on the bottom, that would make it pretty crushable (is that a word?).
Maybe someone who owns this figure could give us an opinion.

I do not think it is crushed. There are crawling, flying and walking versions. I think Flynn might have one fo these. Look in issue 2 of S7 mag for more info (I don't have mine right now). This will go for big $$$.

Look in issue 2 of S7 mag for more info (I don't have mine right now). This will go for big $$$. This is the crawling Hedoran from IKB. I know someone who has one and I just saw it about a week ago.
The figure has no articulation, and because it's all one piece, I'm pretty sure it's hollow on the bottom.
If you look at the bottom pic the area under the green spray looks pushed in. The one I saw was not like that. I don't think the entire figure is crushed.
This will definately sell for top $$$.
