We have a small collection of rare and prototype pieces to

---Lord of the Rings 8.5" Cave Troll vs Legolas prototype:

HAND SCULPTED LORD OF THE RINGS PROTOTYPE
Cave Troll vs Legolas the elf
Hand sculpted and hand painted by Dave Cortes for Toybiz,
this truly one of a kind piece is a rotosculpt with
incredible detail. This 8.5" tall piece is a representation
of the fight scene from The Fellowship of the Ring that
takes place at the Tomb of Balin.
The original idea was to have a series of different sculpts
depicting pivotal scenes in the LOTR series, but the line
was axed before it could come to fruition. So the only
remnants of that idea that still exist are a few prototypes
like this Cave Troll vs Legolas piece.
This piece is a combination of rotosculpt and handmade
techniques. 3 of these were cast from a handmade original
to be hand painted and hand finished and used for 3
different purposes in the production process. Obviously
details like Legolas' bow & arrow had to be hand made.
Sadly, this piece never made it into full-scale production
and the protos are all that were made.

---Incredible Hulk 2.5" Wind-Up sculpy prototype:
http://www.tenacioustoys.com/catalog/item/6279666/6188474.htm
This is a 3.5" tall super sculpy prototype of a Hulk
wind-up toy. There were 3 of these prototypes made. This
prototype figure is hand-painted.

---Marvel X-Men Senator Kelly Transformed 12" 1-Up
Prototype:
http://www.tenacioustoys.com/catalog/item/6279666/6188548.htm
This is a very rare super sculpy prototype 1-up of the
Marvel/Toy Biz Senator Kelly X-Men figure.
"1-up" means this figure was sculpted to be twice the size
of the final figure in order to provide the factory with
greater detail during the development process. This
prototype is one of 3 produced. Hand painted.
