    Yeah, that original Tidal Wave scheme... WOW, that would've made the toy even cooler.

    That concept art of Armada Hotshot is sweet.

    That's what he should've looked like.

    And he also makes me think of an updated Bumblebee.

    Woa! Leobreaker, as designed by H.R. Giger. If the toy would have looked like that, I would have bought it.

    That unreleased deluxe car looks interesting. Too bad we never saw it.

    To me, it really looks like the preliminary sketch for Cybertron Scourge (the 3 headed dragon guy) not that I'm all that familiar with Cybertron.

    Damnit Hasbro, Tidal Wave's original colour scheme was awesome. *sigh* I guess I'll just sell my Tidal Wave and hunt down a ML Shockwave one of these days, maybe when Cybertron ends.

    I like the Energon Downshift drawings. Looks like they wanted his back window to become his chest. Kind of a new spin on car hood becomes chest idea, only backwards(eh, I just kind of lost that train of thought). The napkin sketch does look like Flame Convoy/Scourge. Can't wait ot see today's bit.

    The head for yesterday looks kinda like Bulkhead's, but with a mouth. The head sketch for today... maybe an early design for Hot Shot or Clocker's faces?

    Yes he is.

    I won one of his sketches at the auction and he did me another of Prowl (G1) on sunday at the show. I have them in my art closet, maybe I should dig them out and post them.

    I think the one for today might be a sketch for Jetfire for the G1 neo line. It has the flip down faceplate that the original show character had...

    As has been pointed out before, it's highly unlikely that sketches for a toyline that was still a "maybe" at last year's BotCon would be given away for a charity auction.

    That's be like Porsche giving away the plans for their latest model in a charity auction more than one year before the car is officially released.

    Where are you seeing that? Which day is it...because all I see are pics up to day 14.

    EDIT:Never mind, you're talking about the unreleased deluxe car design. My bad.

    Neat design too.
