Save the Bulldogs - Bid on the Heroes Prototype Figure Set

Fri, Jun 6, 2008

action figures

Here is a tidbit of trivia you may not have known, approximately 37% of the staff of Mezco Toys owns a bulldog. Yup, they really have a thing for those adorably stout and majestic canines, so much so that when they opted to do a charity auction, they named Heaven Sent Bulldpg Rescue as the recipient of 100% of the proceeds. Up for your bidding pleasure is a set of unpainted prototype test shot figures of Hiro, Claire, Peter, Sylar and Mohinder of the hit TV show Heroes. These figures are from early on in the production process and are just a handful of prototypes in the whole wide world with one other set being donated to the Museum of the Moving Image. The Heroes were, until recently, on display at 30 Rockefeller Center as part of a NBC show exhibit. Included in the purchase will be a letter of authenticity as well as a disc with articles about the exhibit, the figures and some production artwork. So far the bidding is up to $127 and it ends June 14th. Click here for more info.
