    Yeah I'd love to see prototype pics too, this was one of my favorite toylines when I was a kid. One of my happiest memories is waking up to find the Kraken toy under the tree on Xmas.

      But something still bothers me, as it did then: No "wave 2". How about:

      *Medusa with bow

      *Perseus (red tunic) with Medusa head

      *Andromeda with Bubo

      *Zeus with lightning-bolt

      *Ruined Temple playset with action-levers (like SW Dagobah), swamp pit, Calibos throne & cage, & Scorpion accessory


      Ah, one can dream--I can "see" this stuff on the shelves even now...
      I couldn't see them making the head or Bubo or the same reason Perseus didn't come with his helmet. I would've also like to have seen one of the evil soldiers from the beginning of the movie that throws baby Perseus and his mother into the sea. Or maybe the old playwright that helps Perseus along. Or one of Calibos' swamp denizens. Or blind witches.

      Nonetheless, I see the 'Clash of the Titans' line like the 'Tron' line, only four figures when there could've been more (Tron: Yuri, ROM, one of the green tank drivers, the old guy, or the yellow Flynn tank driver, or one of Sark's underlings.
      I am more than machine. More than man. More than a fusion of the two.

        Oh that's right, I remember that prototype auction with the 1999 figures. I don't recall what the Zeus looked like though.

          It was a 3 3/4" head sculpt of a man with a beard. You could tell who it was but it wasn't terribly exciting.
