    well, now that the cat is out of the bag:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/Prototype-Smallest-Transformer-CLEAR-BLUE-Optimus-Prime_W0QQitemZ6004077084QQcategoryZ4696QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

    i guess i can talk about them. yeah, they were going to be packed in G1 commemorative series-ish kind of boxes, and they were going to be sold with special edition magazines (or was it comic books? not sure) but since someone made the Comics go bankrupt (grr @ Funana)... it was apparently dropped off.

    maybe IDW will do good and the plan will still carry on :redface2:

    I thought those were just one of many "prototypes" that have shown up on ebay as of late. Customs or "lunchtime specials" if you prefer.

    partly yes... partly no... this particular box is probably custom made, but the concept really isn't

    This is a custom, we've seen the translucent Primes many times on Ebay. Speaking of Ebay, off we go...

    Is it just me, or does it seem like there are acually MORE of the unofficial blue version than the real WSTF Prime? Calling it a prototype just seems inacurate at this point...it's a mass custom.
