Those are beautiful. Does anyone know how to get in touch with Igor or Brian from Infinite Mindz?

It's so amazing finding this stuff out years later. I knew about all of the others thanks to you archiving all of this in these forums but never the Bulma and Broly.

Yeah! I had never seen the Bulma and Oolong before! There were some other surprises (posted above), but the Bulma and Oolong were the biggest! It's a real shame they weren't made, because based on what he wrote, and what the pictures show... this Bulma and Oolong were definitely going to be to scale with the DB Krillin, Goku, General Blue, and buff Master Roshi figures. But... in addition to that... they had planned on making a Path to Power repaint version AND an additional, different, Kid Goku. I'm fuzzy on my memory now, and maybe I said this in this thread previously, but I believe I asked Igor a decade ago if he was the sculptor of the kid Goku and kid Krillin, but I don't remember the answer. I question it, because the hair on the production Goku was not great. And now seeing Igor's work in progress... I really question if he sculpted the production figure's hair or not. Hopefully you can tell in this old collection pic of mine, but DB Krillin and Goku both scale with Launch, Mai, Yamcha, etc. They are 7 inch scale. The Oolong would have been the same 7 inch scale too. General Blue and Master Roshi were oddly sized... Roshi was maybe 7 inch scale bodied, but had a 6 inch scale head. General Blue had a 6 or 6.5 inch scale body and a 4.5 inch scale head. Pirate Robot was 7 inch scale. The Bulma prototype above is a lot smaller than the Banpresto one I own. The Banpresto one I own is about the same size as Launch and Mai. I find this really interesting, because I am pretty sure if I dug through history, I'd find a written claim that Jakks planned on releasing a 5 inch scale DB line of figures, and I think it was supposed to include Bulma, Yamcha, and some others. But this was kind of the first proof I've ever seen of that. The "5 inch scale" Kid Goku, Kid Krillin, buff Roshi, General Blue, and Pirate Robot are way too big to be considered 5 inch scale... so I'm unsure if they were considered the first wave of this or not...
