Gears
|
Description:
Pictured above is Gears as the
figure appeared in a Hasbro product catalog. While the production version
is blue and silver, the preproduction version is blue and green. Also
note that the collar has been left unpainted.

Additional Images:

This version of the figure also appeared on the package.

Pictured above is the silhouette of Gears
(1994) as the figure appeared in the 1993 yearly insert catalog. The
1993 catalog used several silhouettes as placeholders for figures to
come. The Armor Tech and Power Fighters images appear to be silhouettes
of production art rather than of actual figures. It should be noted
that the silhouette of Gears is the same one used for Duke.
This indicates that even earlier versions of the Power Fighter figures
may have used the same body type as the Armor Tech figures. The description
that accompanied these images indicates that they also would have come
with motorized backpacks that would have powered their weapons, accessories,
and vehicle.
