I don't think this has been discussed on this forum before. Anyone seen this before or have any more info on it?

This isn't mine. Pics of it have been around for a while now, that's why I'm surprised it's never been discussed on this board. I was just curious if some of the more knowledgeable LJN collectors on this site have come across it before. It's a really cool piece.

Both hands appear to different to what was released so very interesting. I have an SD Jones with one arm in an alternate pose that I am curious about also.

The right hand ins't Mr. Fuji's, but instead someone else's. I noticed it the first time I saw the figure. Anyone else want to venture a guess as to who's right hand that is? g4, are you able to post pics of your SD Jones figure? Would love to see it.

Does anyone remember that alternate Heenan figure that was in - was it Vince's - office? I feel like it was a magazine photo and Heenan was wearing a sequined jacket.
Either that or I'm thinking of a Blassie figure, I can't remember ---- but it was posted on these boards a couple of years ago. I'm just wondering if this is that figure.

Looks like a Blassie hand to me Bossman, I agree with you that the right hand is a Blassie hand, but I believe it to be the right hand of the PROTOTYPE Blassie figure, not the released version. While they are similar, I've looked at some close up pics from different angles of the prototype Blassie figure, and I'm quite certain the prototype Blassie hand was used on this Heenan figure, which to me gives credibility to this alternate sculpt Heenan and mold being genuine prototype items. Also, I'm not sure how many people are aware that the prototype Blassie figure is actually a modified Heenan figure. If you look at them both, you can see the Blassie prototype has the exact same lower half, and the torso and arms are the same except for the modified jacket/sleeves, and shirt collar. I'm guessing not too many people have made this connection because for some reason every time I see a "custom prototype Blassie" figure done, they use a released Blassie figure instead of a Heenan figure to make it.
