Prototypes? The lips look different on those, I gues that design didn't make the cut....

Here is a bit of the history on these .
Most of these are ”repaints”, But they are Rapala repaints, Rapala familys own colors to Tenojoki which is the biggest Atlantic salmon river on the European side of world if not even worlds biggest.
Most of the lips are indeed some sort of proto type . Looks like a standard FR lip that has been bent down and shaped slightly different .
