What I have are two failed attempts to get figures produced. In fact, the contract for the most recent offer just expired which means I get to keep the initial licensing fee but no figure is being made. If anyone wants to or knows someone who would want to make a Lizardman figure I am all for it - it is one of my few unrealized dreams to have an action figure of myself on the market. @6 Phikus

I don’t have any figures for sale. What I have are two failed attempts to get figures produced. In fact, the contract for the most recent offer just expired which means I get to keep the initial licensing fee but no figure is being made.

If anyone wants to or knows someone who would want to make a Lizardman figure I am all for it – it is one of my few unrealized dreams to have an action figure of myself on the market.

I sat down to wait for my sister to catch up with me in a room with a "Frog Girl" poster just like the little graphic above. As I sat there, every person would walk into the room, look at the poster and say out loud "frog girl," and then walk out the other side. It was one of the funniest and weirdest demonstrations of human behavior I've ever seen.

I'm thinking about picking up a bunch more, and mosaicing them along the sides of the approach to my front door, running away from the house. @ 1 and 2:

Lots of sideshows, oddity museums, and similar attractions are selling these in their gift shops.
