So was that octopus animatronic just a photoshop sham or was it the real deal?

I recall a trustworthy source saying that he was meant to have each of his tentacles on each part of the BandBoard, giving the illusion that he was "playing the bandboard"(the BandBoard being a wide array of pneumatic instruments that added live percussion to PTT shows, located next to Pasqually) as the instruments moved around.

This idea was canned, however, due to PTT's unfortunate bankruptcy. :(

Hope this helps! :)

EDIT: Forgot to answer part of the question at hand haha. He was very much a real Prototype.

Nope. He was only meant to add to the illusion of the BandBoard.

Here's the only one of him in PTT'S costume department. No pics of him actually mounted on the bandboard sadly.

That's cause it never left the planning stages. The original beagles photo we gave of them in their planning stage isn't exactly wonderful either.

It definitely looks like the style of how the PTT era art was drawn. The eyes of it really show it.
