Funko Proto - Groot [Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2] Prototype

The all-grey prototype paint job on this Groot is what sold me, it looks so raw compared to the finished version. Sitting it next to my Vol. 2 collection, the unfinished sculpt really stands out.

Didn't expect the prototype version to look this good on my shelf next to the regular one. The mold lines and unpainted texture are exactly what makes it feel like a behind-the-scenes piece. Groot's pose still reads clearly even without the full color.

The gray prototype finish looks even better in person than in the photos—it really captures Groot’s raw, unfinished look from the movie. This one’s been sitting on my shelf next to the others, and it’s already the first thing guests notice.
