Description:

Pictured above is a mock-up prototype of the Stars and Stripes Forever Breaker (1997). Eventually, the mold used was changed and a similar color pattern was instead applied to Sgt. Zap (1997).

A G.I.Joe Early Bird Certificate Set was offered only at the 1997 G.I.Joe Convention in Philadephia by Majic Productions. On the back was a certificate that could either be mailed in or turned in at the convention. The certificate allowed you to receive four "Vendor Supplied Prototype" action figures by mail.

Pictured above is Breaker - one of the four Vendor Supplied Prototypes (VSP). As a prototype, the body parts were molded in several different colors and did not necessarily match the colors used for the final figures. The VSPs are unpainted.
