Re: Proto vs Artist Proof, which do you prefer?
I like both for different reasons. I think APs are a really cool concept that celebrate the artistic aspect of the designs. I’d like to find a few for my collection. I agree that these are special pieces as are protos, and a unique add to any collection.

do you find t hat things usually change between artist proof and final product? i know sometimes that can happen with protos. I think an artist proof would be more cool, although I've never seen one!

I’d love to receive a proto or AP! But between the two, I’d prefer a proto due to the appearance of the figure, itself.

I prefer the proto over the ap myself
I wish there was a better way about verifying the authenticity of each of these items though

I've owned both protos and Aps and I have found protos capture my interest more. They are both super cool but there is just something about a prototype and how simple it is before moving along in the phases like Artist proofs that I find intriguing to look at. Either way they are both really neat to own.

Honestly prototypes, AP’s are almost nothing different from a regular soda you get at a store it just say’s “AP” on it, but prototypes are unique, you can tell if it is one since some are completely white or others just painted 1 color and I like more unique things then simple things

How does one acquire an AP soda?

These are my only APs but Snow Miser is my favorite and being signed by Becker makes it all the more awesome.

The AP is a better pain job but the proto is to me more special
