There's a Master Merlin wood mock up "prototype" on eBay.

A cool item for just $2800 Shocked

Heh, I'm not sure I'd put that much value on it if it was the functional electronic prototype...

Still, it is pretty cool to see this. These were usually made to be photographed for Toy Fair catalogs and such before final production units were available...

Has anyone ever seen a photo of this in red? Maybe in a 1980 or 1981 industry catalog or Christmas store catalog? I've always wondered how many of these wood mock-ups survived. You can usually spot them in catalog photos, I'm pretty sure they made them for almost every game.
