Hi, are the prototypes normal matchbox size? And do they have the number on back?

My rarest are Neon pink troll and cyclops bought from fireballprinting- I bought those from him and passed up the Neon blue Cyclops which was also on sale at the time! That figure is extremely rare.

They are the same size and point value though the colors appear slightly more vibrant. More pics below comparing the Harpy to a normal Matchbox Harpy and a Yellow Matchbox Hunchback. Outside of the slight color difference they look exactly like Matchbox in every way including sculpt lines and foot markings.

It's hard to narrow it down to one. Probably the Ecuador Mimp are the rarest.

The seller doesn't ship to France, so I have asked someone in USA to buy it for me.

Can you explain this to a n00b :D ?

What's that about the yellow standard?

Certain colors were never thought to be released with certain sculpts and Yellow Harpy was one of them. They never appeared in the wild until I found them on eBay from a New Jersey seller (i.e. close to the Monster in My Pocket factory for the US). 

 

Based on the location along with all the markings, size, etc... we believe they are legit prototypes/test shots. But no one will probably ever know for sure.

Some of these are outstanding pieces. You've succeeded in making me jelly with those prototypes as well as the Ecuadorian and Greek figures. I love the bright colours and translucents, even if they have imperfections. Great stuff guys!

Thanks! I'm a sucker for translucent figures too. The quality really isnt bad at all with the Argentinian figures.

How did you acquire them? I've seen some sealed Greek Series 1 packs online but I think they might just be neon P/Y/G/R colours, which doesn't really warrant the extortionate prices being asked.

I've also seen some South African and Hong Kong packs but I know very little about them.
