I balked at purchasing the Sleestak proto for $100 and have regretted it ever since. I'm in awe.

My favorite is my Hand painted Frankenberry proto.

Postby **Alleycat** » Sun Jan 18, 2009 10:34 am

After much thought, I've selected this one:

It was Friday, noon, at the 2006 (?) ComicCon in San Diego. This was the first item up for raffle, and Brian called the number on my ticket. I was thrilled then, and am thrilled now. I recall getting on the shuttle bus after leaving the Con that day, and Shannon was sitting in the bus and gave me a big thumbs-up. Carol insisted I hold up Frankie so Cathy could take my pic. I then brought it with me to Funday, where Rob and Wilky signed it. They commented on the paper taped to the base with FRANKENBERRY printed on it, saying they were surprised it was still on it, since someone was supposed to have previously removed it (I didn't ask why).

A great rare piece with even a greater story and some very fond and lasting memories.

Thanks, Ron. I hate looking at me.

I just right clicked on the photo and checked "properties". :rolleyes:

Notice that Rich is hiding behind me and Rick is sitting in front of him.

My most prized funko piece is the Herman Munster proto signed by the entire gang at Funko which was given to me by Rick.

Thanks ol' hippy friend!

Postby **gregoman** » Mon Jan 19, 2009 9:27 pm

I've got this palet(?), 5" x 18" that has GOBS of panit on it...It was given to me by Rob Shwartz, one of the artists at Funko. Rob tells me in the early days of Funko they used this thing to hold the paint that they used to haind paint the protos for the color scheme... It's not a proto but it is a Funko history piece.

I've got a whole bigboy puppet and a Mariners Moose puppet! I know, I know I need to get some pictures.

I don't think I could pick out just one favorite rarity. I'll have to think about it somemore.

Postby **FunkoNewb** » Tue Dec 11, 2012 8:41 pm

Love those nodniks bear. Great thread revival, should be interesting to see the responses to this.

Postby **Jango_Fresh** » Tue Dec 11, 2012 8:56 pm

Those nodniks are sweet! I love this thread, I was reading earlier today.

I am not fully sure, but Jim sent me this CWO pop, which I THINK is a painted proto, it's sooo awesome!

Postby **FunkoNewb** » Tue Dec 11, 2012 8:59 pm

Definitely a piece to make the hardcore pop and funko collectors drool, Eddie!

Postby **sclarke03** » Tue Dec 11, 2012 10:41 pm

Of all the threads you could of dug up Bootsy, this was a good one! I have 2 1 of 1's...a War Machine color reject, and this 1 of 1 Freddy Custom I won last year:

Postby **HONSHERO** » Wed Dec 12, 2012 12:02 am

My rarest piece is the 1 of 2 green eyed little Gruesome

best piece ever! lol

Postby **yoohooal** » Wed Dec 12, 2012 2:26 pm

Here are a few of my rarest Funko...

This Homer proto is made of resin, and is heavier than most protos.

This Pop-Up painted proto was never produced.

There were 10 of these Gremlins made - it was a gift from Brian to the mods.

Postby **icemanfan44** » Thu Dec 13, 2012 9:35 am

really love the gremlin. One of my all time fav WB cartoons.

And that is one helluva piece to own! Congrats again Stecey.

Nothing too rare here, a color reject and a couple 1 of 12 wobblers.

I'm shocked that Wolverine never made it to production... that character is a cash cow for merchandisers. (Hulk too)

I love seeing pics of the rare/prized pieces... thanks for reviving this thread =D>

I hope one day to own a proto but that day has yet to arrive. I'm optimistic though. The proto for Abe Lincoln would be the ultimate for me. I saw the concept sketch of it once somewhere here on the forums as well. I'd give my eye teeth for that. Would hang it in the living room with my Don Troiani civil war artwork.

Todd had it for sale like 2 weeks ago on the funkomania board...
