I'm wondering if anyone has any info on these. I've seen a Kurt Angle one pictured before, too. Seems like these figures completely lacking in articulation were the original plans for the Micro line. I only came here after Micros had been out a while. Were there many of these protos shown or any information about the switch to the figures that were actually released?

Very interesting pics! This is the first time I've seen those, so I don't know anything about those prototypes. They do seem to have hardly any articulation, so I'm glad the MA's were ultimately made the way they were. It would've been cool if they kept the torso sculpt used on that Booker proto, though.

I think these are Proto Photos of the surprise egg figures that came out in Italy some years ago! They had no articulation and were about an inch or so. I have an Eddie figure of these.

You'll find these in the database as "Dolci Preziosi Italian 1 inch."

So they were never shown as "Micro Aggression" prototypes? For some reason the UK Toys R Us uses that picture for its Micro 3-packs.

I have to say that the protos were ways better than the final product. If I find my Eddie Guerrero I'll make some comparison pics for you! Here's a pic, where you can see that they didn't really cared about the right (or even same) "height" of the figs: BTW: the people from the Toys R Us Website doesn't seem to know what they're selling. ;D

They're like mini LJNs. That Booker T looks just like on of his RA figures
