No, you can't about these here. Delete you thread ASAP if you want to keep your name or you can come back with a new name.

No, i haven't seen them. No you can't talk about them here.
but for what it's worth, the molding on the head of the Giant looks pretty solid. and i wonder when/if that Magnum's gonna come out because lots of members have been eagerly awaiting that one for quite some time.

I will say I find it off that jakks board can discuss protos, the other brand forum is all about protos but mattel board can't.
Before anyone says it, I know the rules ect ect but it doesn't seem like a consistently enforced rule.

Before anyone says it, I know the rules ect ect but it doesn't seem like a consistently enforced rule. Jakks employees may have different contracts that what Mattel does. I'm not sure about how all of that works, but what I can say is that when I was under contract with Mattel for photography, I had to sign a non-disclosure agreement with my contract. That means I couldn't say ANYTHING about ANYTHING that I got to photograph before it was announced, and I couldn't post whatever work I had done for them either. People on here really need to take things like this into account, there are a variety of reasons behind why companies do what they do. Even if you don't understand it, you should at least respect that.

I thought you were allowed to discuss Prototypes here?? I'm pretty sure the rules state that its only illegal to buy, sell, or promote illegally stolen figures (Such as E1 Hardy) or sharing auction links. I missed the thread, but earlier when i clicked i only seen a proto of Magnum TA and The Giant. What was so bad about that? Ppl talk about Magnum TA figure on here all the time wanting it released, and The Giant WILL be released this coming June, so not like they were stolen or nothin. Maybe I missed something he said later in the thread?

Last time I spoke with Enrique we talked about me continuing on with them, if they show interest in me again of course I would love to do it all over again, especially with my new gear. Outside of them, I've done work for a couple of other companies and stay busy.

Same as CAWS.WS and their no hacking talk? lol More than likely, I would guess that what was leaked isn't supposed to be seen (obviously) - perhaps sculpts/molds were pending approval, maybe it's in WWE's agreement that nothing is to be shown until that approval is given. Just a guess. You shouldn't talk about it out of respect for Mattel, and of course, if keeping your account here is at all important to you. AdamBomb......have u seen the Bridge Direct construction set thing? i know ur into Mini-Mates. Do u think these will be WWE Mini-Mates? I haven't even heard about this! I'm all about Mini-Mates. I don't know if Diamond Select has acquired a WWE license, but if they did I would be all over a Mini-Mate line.

Can't talk about Prototypes here

The Mattel prototypes you see on eBay were very likely STOLEN from factories. That's why we're not allowed to talk about them. Mattel is VERY good to us on this forum and at RSC, and we don't want to ruin that relationship by supporting thieves.
