JumpStart Advanced 1st Grade: Fundamentals/Pre-release and Unused Content

This is a list of pre-release and unused content pertaining to JumpStart Advanced 1st Grade: Fundamentals. They were only used during the E3 2001 event at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

Pre-release 3D Models
A promotional trailer for the JumpStart Advanced series from the JumpStart Activity CD showed 3D models of Frankie, Kisha, Casey and Eleanor with helmets. These models went unused in the game, since the only time the characters wear helmets is during the Race activity, which only uses 2D assets for the characters. Additionally, some of the pre-release models contain minor differences from the 3D models used for the JumpStart All-Stars feature in the final release, such as Kisha missing the green and blue paint splotches on her shirt.

Casey's Soccer Field
The digital manual image for the activity Casey's Soccer Field depicts Casey and Frankie with equipment not seen in the final release. Casey is depicted with blue elbow pads and knee pads, and Frankie holds a megaphone in one hand.

Eleanor's News Room
A seemingly very early version of Eleanor's News Room appeared in a demo reel on former JumpStart artist Mira Scharf's website. Some pre-release differences were also depicted in the game's digital manual.

Frankie's Pizza Stand
A screenshot of the game can be found on the first inner flap of the JumpStart Advanced 1st Grade 3-disc set box, but Frankie's expression differs somewhat, and the colors are more saturated. Additionally, a different cursor from the one in the final product is shown.
