Cutter's Filecard

Figure Description:

Cutter (version 2) was released carded as part of the eleventh series (1992) as part of the Drug Elimination Force (D.E.F.) subset. He was discontinued domestically in 1993.

Versions of Cutter:

• Cutter (1984)
• Cutter v2 (1992)
• Cutter v3 (1993)
• Cutter v4 (2001)
• G.I. Joe Cutter (2008)

In 2008, Cutter was renamed "G.I. Joe Cutter". So while there are multiple names, thay are all based on the character "Cutter".

Accessories:

Cutter came with a white submachine gun, a white flashlight (that attached to his leg), a white grappling hook, a black string, a red Electronic Battle Flash grappling hook launcher (spring loaded, that actually fired), a white tripod for the grappling hook launcher, and a black figure stand.

The Electronic Battle Flash grappling hook launcher not only was spring loaded, but it also included a small light inside. When the grappling hook was fired, it would light up.

Variations:

There are no known variations of Cutter.

Body Construction:

Cutter's body is entirely original - no parts were taken from other figures.

Cutter's entire mold was re-used in 1993 to create Cutter (v3).

Note the peg on Cutter's left leg. The peg allowed Cutter's flashlight to attach firmly to his leg.
