Description This is a boxart I was commisioned by Hasbro back on 2005.

It was used on the toy box for a short time: when Hasbro changed the packaging for this line, this artwork was replaced with a new one.

Shaded pencils on comic artboard, digital colours.

An Alternators version of TF, based on the G1 genre would have been AWESOME!!!!! (As this image of an Acura Integra-based Prowl portrays)

This is really cool. Prowl is one of among my faves. Too bad they didn't they didn't used it. Oh well at least you were noticed by Hasbro.

This was better than the other one they used because it shows the weapons he comes with, while the other alternator artwork doesn't even thou is also a nice piece. I still prefer this one over the latter.

HASBRO wouldn't know what real art was if it reached up and bitch slapped them in the jaw my friend.

This is a really great piece.

Sorry it was never used man.

Hmmm is it boxart?

or something from the never released TFRID:Energon books?

Gorgeous work! I have this particular TF, your art flatters the figure, and that's a lot considering how awesome the toy is.

THis is Beautiful. It must suck to put so much effort into a project and then to have the client change their mind and go in another direction. Keep up the great work my friend your work is rapidly becoming the DEFINING LOOK of the day for the Tranosformers!

That's one cool looking Prowl. Too bad they didn't use the art long. Who knows, maybe this one will become a highly sought rare packaged collectible.

Prowl! You draw him sexy as ever! I might need to see if I can't get my hands on this particular version of the box.

plantman-exe In reply to jookami [2009-07-06 16:13:36 +0000 UTC]

It's from the red-boxed Prowl version, the one that apparently had the 'left mirror always breaks' defect.

jookami In reply to plantman-exe [2009-07-07 00:00:07 +0000 UTC]

Awesome! Sounds like he would need to stay in the box. Thanks!

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

plantman-exe In reply to jookami [2009-07-07 01:05:33 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. Apparently it breaks EVEN when it's kept on the box too depending on handling. Still, it's a very rare one, so definitely worth getting if you can find it.

If I didn't want my Prowl to not break, I'd totally go for anoter in the red box, but alas... bubble will have to do for me. XD

jookami In reply to plantman-exe [2009-07-07 12:39:51 +0000 UTC]

Then he'd probably go straight into a storage box until I have a place to display him. I've seen a few red box Prowls on ebay (have certainly been eying them), this is definitely incentive to buy one of those over the bubble package.

I already have one that's out of package (and modded), and was planning on getting the second to stay in car mode.

Looks awesome. Can't say I miss the Alternator line too much, as they were a pain to transform.

Actually this pic has been used, but it was short lived.
I think the packaging with this boxart is quite rare at today.
