Whenever someone decides to make an invention, they usually don't get it right [[Flawed Prototype|the first time]]. Sometimes, it may result in [[Super Prototype|Super Prototypes]]s that have to be scaled down and depowered for easy mass-production capacity. Other times, it may go wrong. [[Gone Horribly Wrong|Horribly, horribly wrong,]] resulting in a string of machines ending in Mk. VIII, Mk IX, until it's finally (relatively) safe. Then, when someone shows you the Mk. X, you ask [[Fridge Horror|what happened with 1-9?]]
 
And there you have the Unseen Prototype(s). They are rarely mentioned in story, but come to mind once you realize that to get this far in an invention, there had to have been a lot of failures.

* The first time one of [[Mad Scientist|Dr. Gero's]] creations appears in ''[[Dragon Ball]]'', it's Number 8. The next time one shows up, he's gone all the way up to 17. (An [[Omake]] illustration shows the fate of the numbers in between--mostbetween—most of them were failures or considered too uncontrollable.)
* The title character of ''[[Yuria 100 Shiki]]'' is her inventor's 100th attempt at creating a [[Sex Bot]]. A few early models appear, including a crude inflatable doll.
