Nice do you still have it? And is it classic storm trooper or another special one?

I bought one of the UV protecting hard stacks and then I ordered a 3D printed stand that fit inside, and she’s in there. I have her on top of my IKEA Detolf shelf.

I took a picture of it - they are on top of my Detolf (and I have nowhere else to put the 1/6 scale TARDIS so I just put a few things in front of it):

Got crunchyberry from the tiki Fundays. Instantly came home and swapped the proto into the box and got the "proto" sticker...looks great.

Still a nice piece!

My first and only proto came from Mike himself at the Sdcc special edition, it is phineas from the haunted mansion. I never understood the proto craze but after winning it I felt I guess you can call it special since I have a piece that was used to make the others.

My first Proto was the Domo Slimer (Ghostbusters) from the Fugitive Toys Dinner Party circa 2015

Still waiting to get one. I thought Camp Fundays was the day but no proto were giving out. I failed to get tickets for Funtastic Fundays. So hopefully this year will be the day to get a proto

It’s like you got the beginning of the party. I love my Protos because u can see where the idea first began and if they made any changes or additions to the final. And i love seeing the pop before the colors are printed. This is to see how well I can recognize the character.

Gotta start somewhere. Welcome and congrats on the score. Any protos you are looking to get??
