FX-7 Unpainted First Shot
The FX-7 action figure shown above is a pre-production item from the first shot stage of the production process.

This example lacks all paint details on the head, torso, and main arm. Copyright and country of origin markings are also noticeably lacking underneath the base.

Additional noteworthy differences include slightly thinner white arms and a gray plastic composition that appears to deviate from that of its production counterpart. Overall, it's a nice example of the first shot stage for everyone's favorite medical droid.
