TMNT Treasures: Purple Dragon Prototype

Tonight on TMNT Treasures, we bring you fans of the 2k3 show something special. This is a test shot of the unreleased Purple Dragon figure.

201_2163

Originally slated for release in 2006, This Purple Dragon figure was one of the handful of figures that were slated for production that got the axe. Here is an example (not a part of our collections) of a painted prototype of the figure:

purple-dragon-front

Unfortuantely ours is missing the jacket… and while ours isn’t painted, it is still a fine example of good Playmates work that will never see the light of day…Except…you know…here 🙁

Click the top pic to go to an album of the figure.
