As reported earlier on Fastest Fan Alive, a vintage Flash TV Show Prototype Action Figure has been found on eBay:
From the seller’s description:
Awesome and ultra rare early 1990s Toy Biz The Flash 9″ prototype action figure. The figure, which was based on The Flash TV show, was never produced making this one of the rarest figures or prototypes around. The figure is in excellent condition (I would call it VF+) with some minor paint wear, probably due to the fact that as a prototype, it was not handled very carefully in transit. The shoulder and hip joints are just a metal peg inserted into a hole in the limb and tend to be loose, but hold together well making it display beautifully. It appears to be made of some type of resin. This has been in my collection for over 15 years and has been kept in a smoke free environment.
Wow! As a nut for anything from the old Flash TV Show this just takes the cake. I’d seen an uncolored version of it on the Action Figure Insider Forums a few years back but I never imagined I’d see a fully colored piece. Yet alone for sale. Unfortunately for me the bidding starts at $1,999.99, which is a bit out of my price range. It would be nice though. In any case the auction ends in 1 day and 11 hours, so good luck to anyone trying to bid. In case you missed the link above you can find the auction HERE.
Thanks for reading,
He looks like a cross between Barry Allen and Iron Man! Maybe….(grabs calculator) if I stop eating food for a year…sell the tv….
😀
Wow. I didn’t even know they *had* a toy prototype for the show!
Only two grand??
Hell, I’ll buy two!
Ah, to have a disposable income……
That figure is a complete fake. I sincerely hope no one bought it. The arms are from a Kenner Total Justice figure from 1996, so there’s no way it can be a Toybiz prototype from 1990.
