In Mass Effect Universe. I would love to actually see a real prothean. I'm hoping by ME 3. We can see what the prothean's actually look like. No they are not the collectors. I'm hoping they look like the grey aliens from Roswell. That would be Awesome!

Hello,

The Protheans are collectors. Proof in side quest with prothean extinction beacon.

[Sabre120]

The collectors are the remnants of Protheans, only a few strands of DNA remain within them. So no the Collectors do not look like original Protheans, but they are Protheans, just genetically modified beyond all recognition

[SelphieSK]

They do look like that. You get a vision on an N7 mission where you see them.

Technically they are the collectors, but they've been changed so much that you can't really consider them to be anymore. It's like calling a potato chip a vegetable. Sure that's where it came from, but it's far from one anymore. At least in my opinion...

 The Collecters are shown to have prothean DNA, but may not be actaull protheans. They could be mutated protheans, or a combination of species the reapers have harvested

I wanna see an unaltered Prothean, to make it clear.

Hello,
During an N7 mission, you get to use the beacon again. The Protheans didn't change.

The Collectors were explained to have bits of Prothean DNA but EDI also stated that their physical structure is no longer the same.

So while the Collectors ARE former Protheans, it's not what they looked like.

The Collectors are not Protheans. There's only one strand of similar DNA between them.

[Egon322]

I'm hanging on to a distant hope that we might be able to reverse bio-engineer a Collector back into a true Prothean, but it's most likely way beyond current technological capabilities.

They are protheans. Play the game, read codex, do N7 missions. Protheans were modified. That doesn't imply their aspect changed. As proved in N7 beacon mission, they didn't.

Errr...potatoes aren't vegetables to begin with...analogy failure.

Let me help you out.  It's like calling a Ford Mustang a sports car.  Technically it is, but at the lowest common denominator.

For the most part, I, prefer NOT to agree with most of you humans, however, This is correct^^^^.

EDI tells you they had an entire chromosome removed by the Reapers during their reengineering, and Mordin tells you that their brains and even digestive system was partially replaced with technology. Even if you could sort of restore the Prothean DNA, their culture, language and everything that matters is lost forever. The collectors are all that remained, and Shepard wiped them out in one way or another. Let them rest in peace, they did their part for the war against the Reapers.

What the hell are you going on about? The beacon from the side mission was the same vision you recieved in Mass Effect 1. 

The protheans in those images look NOTHING like the modified prothean collectors.

That was a Prothean beacon warning about the Collectors... The image in the beacon comes in substitution for the final sequence of the original mass effect vision which was a reaper attacking.  Instead of a reaper attacking we see the collectors: the end results of all that machine churning and grinding and tinkering wtih flesh.  It was likely sent by protheans towards the end of the long 300 year extermination process when collectors probably started kidnapping the remaining protheans to attempt to build the failed prothean reaper.

Err what are potatoes then

The Protheans are the Collectors, The Reapers indoctrinated the Protheans and compensated for their growing lack of ability due to prolonged indoctrination through cybernetic modifications and eventually the transformation into Collectors

EDI in game stated the Protheans have been genetically repurposed to suit the needs of the Reapers

What that N7 beacon showed was that the reapers were already using the modified Protheans  "Collectors ". It doesn't actually prove that they looked like that, but your guess is as good as mine.

I hope that's a joke... What do you think potato is, a grain? lmao.
