CF Executor and MM Skyhopper "Prototypes" on eBay

[Darth Duranium]

Not sure about these but thought folks would be interested.

Damn, that Collector Fleet Executor looks nice without the garish blue... I still ain't got a big CF Executor.

Is this a proto or is it a variant that someone's seen before? I think it's legit. Going for $100 with no bids yet... not bad.

I don't know diddley-squat about MM protos so I'll leave it for others to comment on the T-16. It does look different than the regular one, though.

Happy bidding and don't forget my finder's fee!

The Skyhopper does appear to be sharper than the usual production version, but I haven't looked at my production copy in quite a while. It'd be interesting to find out if they got it from the same person that graced our lives with his Galoob-Divinity awhile back.

I've got no clue about the Super Star Destroyer, although a normal one goes for around $100 it seems, so no doubt that will sell for the starting price or more.

$187???? Wow, I'm glad I found it at retail, and only paid $20. That, was pure luck, it was the first and only time I seen it.

And that proto micro Skyhopper is nice, alot better then the regular one we got released.

That Skyhopper is missing its gun. I wonder if it's the one that was made for the Tatooine playset.


Nice find on the SSD, that thing never fails to sell high. I was lucky to get mine, a buddy has been pestering me for a solid DECADE to sell it to him. The "city" being gray is a big improvement.

Saw the MM Cloud City and Probot "protos" on eBay today... again, I don't collect 'em but I can't believe the prices they're going for... the Skyhopper proto went for $102!

LTBasker, I'm not sure whom you mean by "Galoob-Divinity" but this seller is the same guy from Melbourne Florida. He seems to know a lot about coldcasts, first shots, and protos... check out the auctions for more.

That $187 CF Executor makes some sense to me (so very nice in that colour, drool), but $102 for a tiny chunk of resin? Ah well, collectors are utterly mad.

Now, where are my meds?

[sergiurusu]

I only hope a real collector gets them...

[JediTricks]

I'm not surprised about the CF SSD because a buddy of mine sold a production version for slightly more a few months back. People never stopped hungering for that rare piece.

I am surprised about the Galoob protos, glad to hear there's still interest enough to warrant that, though I don't approve of those types of prices.

I thought we already had the proto for Cloud City dealt with in the forums a while back. Didn't one of the gang buy that one? It's been a while and there were a lot of protos, so I could be way off, but I thought it was.

[LTBasker]

Yeah, I'm quite sure that Bespin was one of the many protos acquired during that time, although I recall our Galoob-God mentioning that Micro-Machines had four prototypes made, I'm not sure if that was for every single one, or just the Trek ones though.

Galoob divinity would be Jim Fong...aka JKF

Not sure of who that is, I'm thinking of a completely different person. I would just simply say his account name, but I did that a couple of years or so back and was informed that Hasbro was quite iffy about stuff like that getting out, so it was best not to mention names.
