    Default Concept Art for Animated Prowl

    Lead Character Designer for TF:Aniamted Derrick Wyatt has posted some concept art for Animated Prowl on his blog A Delightful Tedium.

    Shows Prowl was always designed as a motorcycle, but for part of the early planning stages a G1 styles paint scheme was considered.

    I hope he doesn't get "plugged" by Hasbro.

    having said that... it's good to see them showing the internal thoughts of designers

    Would we be shocked if the Black and White version could still show up as a Hasbro repaint?

    If he did, I'd be all over it. I recall that custom someone did that sold for cheap, that was just plain awesome. But I suspect that for that to happen, we'll have to be in the 5th wave of universe or something to avoid the clash of colours with Universe Prowl

    I prefer his current colours to the first G1-ish colour scheme. It just looks right on him.

    It's great to hear that Takara's resident Australian designer worked on what is one of the best moulds in the Animated line.

    Seriously? I love the character, but the Prowl toy is my least favourite from the line. And it comes with a traffic light - one of the worst and most superflous accessories in the history of Transformers. I'm wishing for an amazing samurai sidecar Prowl toy to make up for the original Deluxe's shortcomings.

    The traffic light sucks, but the design is IMO easily the best amongst the Animated toys.
