Amit,
__proto__ is a property of the instance, prototype is a property of
the constructor function.
So:
newtoy.constructor.prototype.constructor.prototype.constructor.prototype
= circular reference so it is the prototype Object { rating=3}
newtoy.__proto__.__proto__.__proto__ = prototype property of the
instance as stated above (no circular reference so it returns NULL)
Am I right?
