Description:

Pictured above is a preproduction version of Low-Light as the figure appeared at a Hasbro product show. The figure was intended to be a Wal-Mart exclusive, but due to safety issues with the included parachute, this version of Low-Light was never released.

Additional Images:

Each set would have likely included two different figures and one parachute (pictured above right) with a silver backpack (pictured above left).

Because of the fact that the accidentally shipped Snake Eyes vs Storm Shadow included a plastic tray specific to the set, this confirms the accessories that were intended to be included in that set. While this set has not been opened, it is likely that the parachute would have been similar to the Halo Jumper parachute that was pictured on Hasbro's official website.

While several production-level hard copies of Low-Light have become available to collectors, it is unknown if these are the figures as they would have been released or if they are simply figures made by the workers at the factory where G.I. Joe figures are produced.

Note that the factory figure is quite different than the hand-painted version Hasbro revealed. Not only are the goggles brown instead of red, but the forearms and gloves have reversed colors and the legs have an added green area.

A second facory level figure with an unpainted head has forearms that are closer to the painted prototype.
