I wish they were all mine! It was hard enough just collecting the photos of all those I did pick up Jake/Finn recently from Gemini (not here yet) which increased my previous Ride proto collection by 50%

[treswright]

Haven't updated this thread in a few months, but I have been picking up Rides prototypes here and there Here are pics of the new ones, I added them to the first post as well:

Thank you! Me either, I was really surprised it wasn't in the catalog or in the announcements. It's supposed to be out in April according to GS, so we might see the real thing before the concept art

[treswright]

I added a few pics to the first post as follows:

First this is a Phooeymobile prototype that was posted on eBay by one of the Funko designers ("victoria_dexter"):





And here's a proto of the Pop Deluxe Taun Taun that was posted on Instagram by another Funko designer ("thequeenofgates"):



And here is a proto of the Dorbz Batmobile that was posted on IG by "toymonster":



Here's a pic I posted on IG of my Lola proto! I need to take a pic of it with the regular release for the first post.



I also have a proto of the Crystal Machine now, and just picked up the A-Team Van proto from Gemini (not here yet) so I'll post those up soon as well!

It really is overwhelming seeing the collection of photos in one place

That Taun-Taun proto is so perfect!!!

It's a beauty! I wonder if there was a color version too?

protos looks pretty cool on the rides...

You won't get an argument from me

You're welcome! And thanks on Lola, I was really happy to get that one! I had never seen pics of one before. The person I bought it from used to work for Funko, I also bought the Crystal Ship proto from them. They had a Dorbz Ridez Ecto-1 as well but I missed out on that one.

Oh man!! So that delorean i owned is now in bryan sato's collection and when i get a chance ill post the yellow sub proto and my indy ride proto

Please do, would love to see them! And how DARE you not sell that Delorean to me Congrats to Bryan, that is such a cool piece! And Bryan, when you get tired of it you know who your huckleberry is

Man, those are some awesome Rides and Ridez Protos everyone!! The prototype collectors are a whole different breed of collectors. I can only dream of being a prototype collector. Hehe

I think a lot of proto collectors start out thinking they'll never own a proto, I know I did! Never say never

[TriFeckTa]

Thanks for compiling all of these images, very cool to see some of the stuff thats out there.

[Funko_Bandido]

wooo! Those protos are pretty sweet! Never knew some of those existed

Yeah you're right. I do own 3 Dorbz Protos and am looking to possibly start a Pop Proto collection but we'll see what happens since I'm trying to keep up with all the awesome new releases of the new licenses. But I'm really close to jumping the gun on pop Protos. Lol

[Alleycat]

Lola proto

[treswright]

Added another proto to the collection, really digging how this one looks

Thanks for compiling all of these images, very cool to see some of the stuff thats out there.

No problem!

I believe they make protos of every single production piece, so there are actually some that are not in this thread. A couple that I have never seen but would really love to- Dom's Charger and Ant-Thony.

I never really intended to have a collection of protos. but I picked up one, then another, then another... after months of that you
suddenly realize you have a "collection" of them

Lola proto

Thank you! Congrats to both of us on the Banana Splitz protos, i'm fighting the urge to stand by the mailbox every day

[hojo]

Love them all! I love the Ridez and can't wait to see more in the future! Jealous of those of you with the protos!!! Had a Delorean proto at one point but traded it away to finish off sets. Keep the pics coming!!

[Alleycat]

I promised a post

Nice rides, Ross. Another close call for Indy. Needs a bumper sticker- I brake for subs.

[kiptrip]

Daenerys and her dragon is an awesome proto

[Jezter]

I would love the A-Team van or the Wolverine motorcycle protos, but even if I did find them I think it's a safe bet they are way above my price range, haha. Very cool though and I'll happily stare at the ones everyone else has.
