A Hidden Gold Mine Uncovered – Unproduced Transformers from an Ex-Kenner/Hasbro Employee

While visiting tfw2005.com, I stumbled upon a post about an eBay seller with a treasure trove of gems!

It appears an ex-Kenner/Hasbro employee has HUNDREDS of boxes of prototype and unproduced Transformers.  Although they’re not customs, they might as well have been as some of these pieces may be the only existing copies or extraordinarily rare pieces.

What has been Uncovered in this Tomb?

One such piece is an Unproduced G2 Menasor, which sold for just under $27,000 – congrats to the lucky buyer who truly owns a hidden treasure:


Also found was a prototype Beast Wars Optimal Optimus:

Take a look at eBay seller z75sales as he has tons of prototypes and if you’re lucky… unreleased pieces.  Also check out z75sales Youtube Channel, You can also find some fascinating videos of his collection and the opening of some of the boxes like this one:



…. It’s incredible to think that some of these pieces have been sitting untouched and unseen in boxes for decades… it’s like finding King Tuts Tomb with all its treasures intact.. seriously.. .
