Is it realistic to have a goal of getting an investor off a prototype? (alien.top)

I only have a few thousand dollars available. I know I can make a good working prototype for that much. The problem is I need realistically around 100k to get the initial design completed for real manufacturing plus maybe another 25k-50k to make the first “batch” of my product.

Is it realistic to even try getting an investor for that much off just a prototype?

I got an investor off a product mockup I made in PowerPoint. It doesn't need to be super sophisticated, you just need to be able to inspire people with your plan.
