Transformers collector, and Seibertron.com member, Delphan Rane has posted an eBay auction for a truly amazing set of toys: The G2 Protectobots Mint on sealed card and AFA graded.
These Transformers combiners were planned recolors in the Generation 2 line of Transformers, along with the Stunticons, Aerialbots, Combaticons, and Constructicons (in two different color schemes). As with most G2 releases, the new color schemes were quite bright, and in some cases, almost eye blistering.
The Stunticons and Protectobots never made it to mass production though, and thus packaged, and even loose pieces are considered very rare, with Motormaster, and Hot Spot being amongst the rarest, as they never made it to actual packaged production pieces.
G2 Stunticon Breakdown did eventually get released as a Botcon exclusive (before Botcon was what it is today), and although re-released in limited numbers, this exclusive still collects a high dollar in the toy market.
Delphan Rane shared his in package galleries of the packaged G2 Protectobots. Check out the Seibertron galleries of G2 Blades, G2 Groove, G2 Streetwise, and G2 First Aid all mint on the card.
Check out the Vector Sigma Database entries for the Protectobots as well: Defensor, Blades, First Aid, Groove, Hot Spot, and Streetwise.
