      literally no, it was shown off once, has a few, really low quality scans, and was most definitely returned to SEGA and scrapped, as were most other prototypes returned to SEGA. we can hope for say, the early ballhog prototype shown off at CES to have remnants of TTS, but thats lost unless it gets found and released by SEGA themselves.

If a Sonic 1 Prototype Was Found, there Could Be a Super Slim Chance That Maybe the Tokyo Toy Show ROM Can Be Found or Sega Finally "Finding" it. I Don't Know but Could Happen

    2:51 Fun fact; The layout gif present on the proto's TCRF page is actually an edit I did of a partially-recreated layout that was posted in 2018, on one of Sonic 1's prerelease pages (as it was based on VHS footage that featured a bit of gameplay in this early Special Stage). The gif here is partially-fixed from my revision, as I missed that me copy-pasting the whole bottom area made the lower-right yellow blocks inanimate. This error was fixed soon after, except one of the yellow blocks doesn't blink blue.
    5:05 Also you misspelt that as "Sparlking".

    Fun fact: not even the first sonic game is started and there is a glitch on the titelscreen: The " Press Start" in the final game wasnt show due to a glitch where the game text uses the same memory as the "Press Start" Text so it goes unused. But in this prototype the "Press Start" Text dosnt zse the same memory so it is seen in this prototype.
