I can't really find anything relating to the design teams incharge of the 2007 and 2009 movie toy lines. I don't have the packaging for either to check. The vast differences in design ethos between the two (Prime's amazingly CG accurate mold and the overall quality of the new toys vs the 2007 toys) has me thinking that they represent the work of two totally different design teams Is there any information detailing who designed what?
they're the same. 07 toys were based on concept art. 09 toys of the returning cast were based on the CG models. everything else is just a result of more experience.
