Created for the third season "Challenge of The Super
Friends" show, El
Dorado would have been the second unique
Hanna-Barbera character to get his own figure, after Samurai.
Photos of the internal master hard copy are shown below,
courtesy of The
Earth Toy Mall. The actual figure would have
had about 5% shrinkage when injection molded, so it would
not have been taller than Batman when mass produced.
A very cool figure, he deviates from his cartoon counterpart
in that he has a flat area on his stomach for either a
sticker, hologram, or lenticular image. This technology
was just hitting it's stride in the mid-80s, with Hasbro's
Visionaries line for holograms and Mattel's
Secret Wars for lenticulars. Maybe Kenner
wanted in on the act. Now where was poor old Apache
Chief? Shown at the bottom of the page is
the bag that this "Record Hard Copy" came in.
