I'm not the worlds best photographer, but I figured it was the best way to make sure I'd have the right to add it to the library. If there's a better image out there with an open license, I'd be happy to change it.
No, I've been trying to get it, but I've given up. I almost bought it when they first came out and they all had the same price tag, but I decided not to for some reason. :( I only have this one, Liz Sherman and Lobster Johnson from this series.
Ah, damn! There's nothing worse than knowing you had the chance but didn't grab it! I did the same with the cutest little Nibbler from Futurama once. It was priced around $ 25, but I did just like you. Years later I was forced to pay waaaay more for it on ebay *sigh*. I've been a hardcore Mignola fan for years, so when I saw these action toys I just had to own them. But again...some years too late, so I had to go with the Rocket Pack Hellboy, which I believe is from series 2 ?
Yeah, way worse than buying something rather pricey and then realise you could have bought it much cheaper if you had just done some research or waited a little :P But there's always new chances to buy stuff at exactly the right time… What I'm really interested in right now is either one of the 18-inch Hellboys or the special edition Hellboy with the uncensored Herman von Klempt head. I think my chances at aquiring the former is slightly higher :) Until then I'll have to settle for my Big Blast one.
Uncensored Herman von Klempt head? You mean with the swastika on his forehead? But he came with the Kriegaffe!! Just looked at mine....and yes, I think it must be censored. The sign looks more like an X than a swastika. Didn't really notice it till now, because I let them stay in the clam shell widow box. Censorship in toys? C'mon Mezco! P.S. I have the 18-inch of course. ;)
Oh, hope I didn't ruin it for you! I was disappointed when I found out and it's part of the reason why I'm not trying that hard to get a hold of the ape. I guess we're lucky that Liz is still allowed to have a cigarette :P The 18-inch must look pretty cool. It's on my list, so hopefully I'll get it eventually…

@larzor Do you have the Kriegaffe Number 10 as well? It's pretty expensive on ebay!
