Test Shot Prototypes - Straight-Arm Figures

Action figures usually start as "Hard Copies". These models are used to create the molds, that are used to press out a run of "First shots" or "Test shots". These test shots are done in many different colors and lack a date stamp until the production run begins.

Pictured above are straight-arm prototypes of (top, from left to right) Cobra Soldier, three Cobra Officers, Stalker, (middle) Clutch, Flash, two Zaps, Hawk, (bottom) Steeler, Breaker, Grunt, and Short-Fuze.
