Not sure about these, but in general the term proto is used a lot around here to refer to an unpainted version of a regular release - so not really a proto at all.

Re: Got paranoia?
I got to see the NYCC release and the sculpt has a lot of charm. There seems to be a nod to the Bemon without being derivative.
The paint had some details that were so subtle they seem like they might be shadow. The NYCC Garamon's hepatitic yellow retina seemed to be slightly lighter than the tiny yellow iris which was almost invisible because of the hugely dilated pupil.
The paint at first glance seemed simple but on closer inspection turned out to be kind of awesome in execution.
Anyway all hype or fighting aside its only fair to admit that they're really cool toys. Now I probably need to get the Mishka Iggy Pop tribute Raw Power version.

Re: Got paranoia?
Nicely put Krudler. For what is an essentially primitive themed toy, you really have to see these guys to appreciate the inherent subtleties and marvellous paint apps. The amount of effort that Shig must put into each one is quite the eye opener. Krudler wrote: I got to see the NYCC release and the sculpt has a lot of charm.
