Hey everyone,
Here are some Squid Heads!
I’ve had this focus for a few years now, and it has been a lot of fun putting together the various releases of good ol’ Squiddy.
Along the way I’ve met a lot of great people, and have been pointed in the direction of figures I otherwise might not have found.

I like the 3 tentacle version & the variants I have never looked for- long capes and stitching colour versions. Has a 79 back cardback ever surfaced?
