I missed the end of this auction, but I suppose since it isn't active anymore, I can post it here. This is from one of those guys that was selling a lot of prototypes. It is a collection of Hasbro's reference slides of WWF wrestlers. Sure enough, Tugboat is in there.  |

I also was watching these. I believe I seen some of these a long time ago too. But when they didn't go past a dollar for almost the whole auction I was skeptical. I wasn't sure if they were actually what he said they were. Guess they are worth the money they went for reguardless..

A few years ago the pre-production sketch of the Tugboat figure was posted. Hasbro then decided to make Typhoon instead since he had been Typhoon for a while when the figure was due out but Hasbro still released Earthquake in his singles attire.

Sorry boys that I beat you to it. I saw it for months as well, but the price was too high. I believe that othen than one set of slides, I was able to buy all that he had over the past year.

If Tugboat's sketch isn't in the database, I'll dig it up and rescan it later this week.

I keep thinking I saw one of those photos years ago that used to advertise hasbros that had a few figs set up in different poses and i'm almost certain I saw a tugboat figure in it.
