Very cool. Love that optimus prototype - that headscuplt is badass!!! Oh man. These guys are absolute geniuses. No doubt about that.

 

I love that he always is determined to have the current TF be his best work ever. Fantastic read.

 

Sydney's the man!

 

This is great. SydneyY, you're great. Awesome, awesome job.

 

Very rarely is a single person responsible for a Transformers from concept to production. Generally, several concepts are generated and submitted, and, once a direction is decided upon, a lead designer, or designers, are assigned to flesh the piece out to final production.

It is very much a group effort.

When a Transformer is designed from scratch, you will usually see the initial designer take a more commanding role in the process.

Very enlightening interview. Sideswipe's my favourite from ROTF too.  

I didn't know much that the process of designing the robots and alt-modes was so hard before reading this. I know combiners and triple-changers can give a designer a hard time, but when they are finally done, they are some of the funnest TFs! Hasui does a great job on all of the Starscream toys too, I have two of the ones Hasui has designed, and I like them both. I am definately a fan of this designer now!

 

Interesting read, cheers for taking the time to translate it SydneyY  

 

Awesome quote.  

I like how he was open to the idea of doing something different with the movie designs, as he mentioned in the bit with Starscream.

I also liked the movie Prime concept model they made out of what looks like Energon(Superlink) Prime parts. lol that's neat.

Very cool read.

 

That was pretty insightful. Thanks for the Engrish translation Syd!  

 

interesting interview.
