That's what I thought of too. All they'd do is the same thing this guy is doing anyway though. Buy at X, sell at Y.

Weird, as this Figure appears to have more blue details painted in than the original on the ad, and the arm swivel is on the opposite side to the ad?

Pretty sweet. I remember Greg Valentine saying that one of these bad boys was in circulation somewhere. I remember seeing the Honky figure it was going to come with being the same one from the single's line and being mad. Wanted him in red. I have almost all the Hasbro's except I only have White Yoko out of the rare last series.

Ad is flipped as others have stated. Also on the Hasbro board, and I think the guy who originally sold it said it is not the figure in the ad. There is another pic of one maybe a Toys R us ad that shows a different one that looks more like this one. When it 1st came to light some said it was different from that one too I believe but there were definitely 2 protos, and maybe more. I am no expert, but I think this is what I remember reading on the board when it first came to light. I could be mistaken, but it can be searched and the other pic is posted there too.

Why is his raised arm on the opposite side of the package?

wow, only previously seen it on the ad.
looks weird though, the Greg "The Hammer" Valentine Hasbro looks nicer.

Why is his raised arm on the opposite side of the package? Can you even READ? Everybody KNOWS the original ad had a mirrored picture! Anyway, as mentioned: pretty hypocritical this is promoted... THAT seller AIN'T a collector in my book!

WFIGS members can't post a thread about the unreleased Elite 1 figure yet makes a thread about an unreleased hasbro figure selling on eBay for $55,000?

whole ad is flipped, that is fine... but no one cares that the notes on this "real prototype" are in blue vs. black in the ad, and the fact that this figure has more notes coloured in than the ad... yet its definitely 100% real... for sure!!!! lol

To everyone asking why they are promoting this and banning people for talking about/promoting unreleased Mattel figures; it's because Mattel has a partnership with RSC, and Mattel asked RSC/WFigs not to allow people to discuss or promote figures that were stolen from their factories.

This is one of them.
