Did you ever find out more on these figs?

Were they official Display Minifigs, and if so, what did they cost?

   I'll have to go look again.  They may in fact be smaller than
   18", but they were in boxes that were open in the front, and
   were clearly single oversized minifigs.  The power went out at
   the mall right about that time so I didn't get to fiddle with
   them.  (They had a bunch of other LIC merch so I presume it was
   LEGO's own kiosk.)

   Does TLC sell other "maxifigs" that are different?  (But since
   posting I've seen the picture others pointed to and they do
   look different.)  The kiosk in question was at Twelve Oaks in
   Novi, MI.  I'm back in NJ now but I"ll go look in August when
   I go home.

We're not talking about the Sculpture Minifigs, we're talking about the DISPLAY
minifigs - the cast ones used in most official Lego shops in displays.

   What do you mean by "cast?"  I'm talking about ABS ones--at
   least, I think they are.  They were definitely plastic, at any
   rate, and most certainly for sale--and NOT Sculpture, but upscaled
   standard minifigs.  From the sounds of it they're a different
   item, though, especially given the amounts you said they've
   fetched at auction.
