At that price level, if you're lucky enough to be able to score a plane ticket around $300, I'd probably consider doing that myself. The rush of that experience would be pretty exciting

The yellow is a little lighter but then again only about 10 of these or less exist so the coloring of the card might of been a little different. I dont know the full back story but I have seen some red cards look a little more pink sometimes then red but what do i know hahha

I'll take 10.
I honest to god had one of these when I was younger that my grandparents got me at a car boot sale. I didn't know it was any rareness to it and sold it as part of a job lot to someone in Italy on ebay when I sold my collection a few years back.
I wish I hadn't done that...

I agree with hh2trotts anvil fan I highly doubt you had the moon belly. I am sure you had a kamala but no way was it a moon belly.

What's so special about this? I don't have the knowledge of Hasbros.

What's so special about this? I don't have the knowledge of Hasbros. Basically it is a variant design correction piece that ultimately never got the go ahead for official release, so only 12-24 pre-production prototype carded samples were commissioned for internal purposes and then the rest is history.

I've always felt bad for Kamala with his figures.
First his LJN had a tiny skirt and his skin was like one shade darker than Bret Hart's toy. The design on the skirt and facepaint was subpar too. Hasbro gave him a white skirt which he really only wore during his 80s WWF run and a few other promotions but not the 87 or 93 run. Not to mention giving him the belly star which he didn't have. Figures Inc probably had the very best until Mattel. The facepaint was spot on and the skirt was of great design and size. Only problem was a white moon on belly. Jakks was trash. Vince must not have had involvement with the toy making process because if he did he would have dumped Jakks around Series 2 in 1996. Jakks' had a skirt that was about 1/4 the size of Figures Inc and when it raveled it was impossible to unravel. They also put a ton of black duct tape on him having the Samoan and Yokozuna legs and arms. Facepaint and likeness was great and the mask was very cool. Mattel is the very best of all. The got everything right!

Just looking for an update here, I sort of lost track of this Kamala auction. Did someone buy this, or did the auction expire? Anybody know?

A genuine series 9 Brutus proto would be cool.
