C-3PO Dull Gold Test Case
It's not exactly clear what role this case played in the production process. The best guess is that Kenner experimented with different color plastics before deciding on vacuum metallization. It is similar to the dull gold Vader case in color. Notice that the mold is the early mold seen on the other prototype cases.
