    I like the savage Leo and the tiger the most. Its a great blend of MOTU and TMNT. These unproduced toy videos are always so interesting. I think it would be cool to do an episode on toy mysteries that haven't been solved or have just recently solved. It's crazy that it took until 2020 to crack the mystery of Wonderbread He-Man. How many other toys have so much mystery surrounding them?

    I have the version of the gorilla double pretender created for Botcon. He's cool, but I can see why they didn't actually produce the Double Pretenders it would of been a LOT of material for very simplistic figures, at a time when the toyline's profits were already waning.

      Exactly the end of the G1 toy line was the death knell for the double pretenders. I have always assumed that the development never got beyond the design for the shells and existing pretenders inner figures were used for test purposes to work out the inner space required.

      @angryvikings Pƙed 3 lety

      @@EdsRetroGeekOut Yeah it was my first convention as a kid. So much fun. The Hasbro Rep was also a HUGE fan so he mingled well with us.
      But apparently He got fired after his time there because Hasbro felt he gave to much information away (honestly he didn't say anything revealing at all, he had great fan interaction balanced with proper cooperate tight lipped) and all I got out of him was he really hoped to bring a long gone G1 toy back into Beast Wars.
      I saw he was clearly eyeing a MINT in Box Jetfire and I said "oh you mean Jetfire?" He paused realizing I saw what he was eyeing and he said "Well theirs alot of possibilities for Beast wars I'd like to see happen" And that was it. I didn't press him because even though I was a kid I knew about job security even then. And I recall saying well if so that would be cool.
      I liked Jetfire as a kid, and the fact he crashed landed into Earth would work great with the story line if the Maximals found him.
      But again since this was mid 90's and Companies still didn't fully understand that Fanbase interaction was a good thing, and anything outside of directly prepared speeches could get you fired. :/
      I and other fans found out at Botcon 97 he was let go and where sad to hear that. His Replacements tired to walk a line of being open to fans but saying nothing, and yet because the internet is great for leaks even way back in 1997, everyone knew almost all the toys they had to display.

    I freaking love Pretenders, they’re such an oddity but man they’re beautiful in hand especially the Decepticon pretenders(I currently only have those atm)
    Even better when they’re in good condition.
    It’s still possible to get the gorilla Double pretender, as the TF Subscription service made two of them, both red and black.
    I only have the Megatron variant but that’s just a recolor of the Grand Maximus pretender shell BUT that was a Japanese exclusive back in the 80s, so it still has some awesome charm to own one.

    I'm a Transformer fan, so those Pretenders peeked my interest. For the record, Pretenders were portrayed very differently in the East and West. In America, the Pretenders were often shown to be smaller than normal transformers. This allowed the Autobots to masquerade as normal humans, especially to Decepticons who were new to Earth. The Decepticons specifically chose to assume monster appearances to terrify humans, but to avoid identification as Decepticons. Basically, attacks would be blamed on monsters which the Autobots would presumably ignore in favor of tracking down "real" Decepticons. In said portrayal, the shells were controlled by the inner robots. In contrast, the Japanese versions were more or less human sized while their "shells" were active, but their shells vanished and they assumed normal Transformer size when assuming robot form. The robots and the shells never worked side by side to my knowledge.

    Hey Ed, great video. That Turtles line look nice, never saw them. I am missing the Star Wars Ewoks Wave 2 Figure Prototypes, maybe something for the next Toy History Episode. Greetings from germany.

    That Gorilla Pretender got New Life with 2 New versions that were released as BotCon and Transformers Collectors club Exclusives. It had 2 different paint jobs and Names. The BotCon one being a Decepticon named Oilmaster and the TFCC version (Which was more accurate in color to the one in the photos you showed) being Optimus Prime. I know this because I own Both of them. I really want that Spider Though

      @@EdsRetroGeekOut Someone did a kickstarter to sort of relaunch Skeleton Warriors, and did pretty well with Barron Dark, but then made the same sort of mistake that occurred originally and had the second figure be Grimskull and that one failed.

    I think 2 of the most popular unreleased Prototype Transformers are for sure G2 Menasor and G2 Defensor. Perhaps when there are even 3-4 complete Combiners of each out there and of course some loose Figures, except the Botcon 96(?) carded G2 Breakdown, there is only ONE complete Menasor with only exsistend Head and Stickers applied on each of them in 5 sealed Produktion Bags , was spotted worldwide and was sold on Ebay for about 28.000$ after 50+ Bids on it.................G2 Defensor Stickers by the way, doesnÂŽt seem to exsist. These Pretender Things are Hardcopies, where the Combiners are last Testshots, ready to seeing Stores....................but that never happened.

    If anybody's see what I'm writing on here now or figures companies. Every figure that did not get released and was going to be and did not. This is a time for mattle and super7 and Hasbro and any other companies to make these figures for collectors and kids. Someone past this on, if u can to all the companies. It would be so nice to have these none releases, that supposed to get released but didn't and or the the figures that was drawn on paper and never made it to figure.
