About This Figure
On the very early series 1 card backs, the Monkian figure was pictured with a differently coloured weapon. The chain is a yellow colour instead of black and the spiked ball is black instead of silver. It is thought that this was a very early prototype, which was later changed to the silver spiked ball and black chain all collectors know. Like many other weapons, what was originally shown (in this case the differently coloured Monkian weapon) was never released.
