Prototypes by Varner Studios at SDCC

SDCC's Exhibit Floor is huge...and you know how you always seem to miss something. (We know this all too well.). Just by chance while trying to navigate the massive exhibit hall row by row, we happen to come across the Varner Studios Booth. They make prototypes for various companies. The ones above are what we came across first but as we turned the corner to look at the other side of the booth, wow we were in for a treat! There were prototypes from the vintage TMNT line and various other lines like Family Guy, Happy Meal/Kids Meal Toys etc...

After the Jump, there are a lot of pictures. We were geeking out this booth and there were maybe 1 or 2 unreleased vintage TMNT toys.
