It's a tale of detectives, scalpers and Ebay in my latest review. Twitch and Sam from the 1996 Spawn line. What's the story with these two? Check it out and thanks if you do!

Looking back at spawn figures wow. Great sculpts, but the lack of durability killed them. Glad he makes statues.

After Wave 9, Spawn toys' Quality, playability, and durability disintegrated.
so after foolishly clinging till Wave 19, i sold off 95% of my Spawn collection. These 2, however are still in my room. they are simple, but beautiful. i never regretted getting them.

I had both version of Sam & Twitch. This is a mix of the two shown here. The first Sam has a serious face (but the same doughnut) and the second Sam has the comic face here. Twitch #1 is shown here, sans earpiece and the second version has a sculpted tactical vest. IIRC that is.
And I also still have one set of them somewhere along with the 10 or so Spawn figures that remain. Manga-Spawn and Samurai Spawn for the win! |

Good review, and good history lesson. I never knew these were one of the earliest scalped figures (along with POTF, and look how good that turned out?).
