Was it 'unauthorized' Gary?<BR>
<BR>
I don't know about the Dark Horse line, specifically, and it's legal ins & outs, but I deal quite in depth in the world of 'miniatures', and it's really quite common for these "prototypes" to exist. Is it possible the creator sculpted this to show Sergio the next 'release', but for whatever reason the company folded, and the project got scraped?<BR>
<BR>
I think what I'm saying, is a lot of these types of creators, oft times create a single prototype or even a large scale version of the desired prototype. Again, I don't know if the Dark Horse line of minis was legal or not. The way I understood it was that the creator was working on this as a 'next release', but things obviously fell through and thus this single prototype (if that's what it really is).<BR>
