JB0 Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 hmmm, the toy looks not so good in the ultra crappy photocopy... sad. 399126[/snapback] It looks to me like the pose is of equal quality to the xerox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veritas Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 (edited) It is a bad photocopy granted. It's been floating around the net for a little while now, but the coloring that Josh did with Don's original sketches gives me renewed faith in this design. I have a feeling that the figure in the photocopy is just badly transformed and posed in an unassuming manner. I think when we finally see a clearer picture (preferrably in color) we should be able to breathe a sign of relief... at least i sure hope so.

Fit For Natalie Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 I should note that apparently the above Hot Rod concept was NOT used, and they went with a different, presumebly better design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hingtgen Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 I like that HotRod so much I can't imagine the one they went with as being "better". Different maybe, but better? I bet it'll be worse (to my eyes). "The coolest concept sketch is never used". That holds true for TF's, fighter jets, warships, and everything else.

ComicKaze Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 (edited) Don's post (the artist) Having fun posting my art without consent dude?Seriously, I've let the Prime drawings slide, and I dont know how many more you have with you but please, Unless you have approval from Hasbro themselves, you have NO right posting these because I certainly don't. and it's MY artwork! and BTW, that's NOT even Classics Hotrod, it's just a concept art. I did a bunch of them.. FYI, I'm not mad at you, but to whoever you got these from. this is'nt cool. that's why these images are taken down at tfw2005. Most of these are stolen.

eriku Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 That Hot Rod is very, very nice. Hopefully the official one will be even better, but as David said that is hard to imagine. Prime's arm kibble bothers me, but not enough to turn me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fit For Natalie Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Which is too bad since Don is a real nice guy - a fan who went on to become one of the most popular TF artists, a good friend of Hasbro's TF boss, as well as a TF toy designer. There's something to be said about a man whose original comic designs are almost always the ones people demand to be turned into toys. And so far, he's the only TF artist whose had his own designs become toys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fit For Natalie Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Titanium Prime, Megatron, Jetfire and Thundercracker. Presumebly Titanium Optimal Optimus and Scourge too. From what he's said about Hot Rod's concept, its probable he provided most of the conceptual work for the line, too. He's also provided help for the Energon and Cybertron line (in particular the Starscreams), as well as designing one of the original concepts for Masterpiece Convoy/20th Prime.

She and Arcee were always an object of "mass-interfaces" (orgies) amongst the auto-bots. The decepticons are gay because they can't help it.
