Hi Guys, time has come!
A few weeks ago I had the chance, to get one of the rarest hasbro figure ever, and I took the chance!
So here it is my Proud and Joy my 2nd HOLY GRAIL 1 of 1 RHYTHM & BLUES PROTOTYPE GREG "THE HAMMER" VALENTINE
Hi Andy, out of curiosity, can you explain why this Greg Valentine figure has blue notes of his shoulder yet the one pictured in the original ad doesn't?

Anyone have a better shot of that Crush in the background with the mostly red/black face paint?

Greg in the ad, is not my one, i own! There were made three Greg proto´s, and all three look different. Look at Hasbromaniac´s *Official Hasbro Post* page 2, there you can see a Black and White pic, from my Greg proto. The Notes on the shoulder are painted too!
A few Proto figs in the ad look different as the Standard released figs (Bushwrackers Pants, Crush face and Honky Tonk´s attire)!
I have only one info right now, Lenny Lee told me, he saw, my Greg proto on a Desk in Hasbro, early 1990, and the Notes were blue!

Can someone explain why the Hammer "Prototype" has his right arm up yet the picture shows his left arm up?

Absolutely OUTSTANDING! Great pictures of your collection. Wish I had the Greg and Kamala figures along with the JC Penny ring

Great collection! I love it! Those floating shelves are awesome, I just worry they would fall. Always liked the hasbro figs, great collection. Ikea sells 48" floating shelves (they're fairly cheap, too) in white. They screw in right to the studs so there's no chance of them falling. I had my entire loose collection (U.S. Hasbro and U.S. Galoob) on there (with the plastic WWF silver figure stands) and was plenty sturdy the entire time. Two shelves will fit an entire loose collection.

A very cool figure. One of the better test shots. Nice purchase.
I miss hunting these things down.

Very nice. How do you find these things? Is it local or online?
The Nasty Boys figures had awesome molds. I think they were the best tag set Hasbro made.
