Now, obviously I would expect these to be early, early renders of the characters, sort of "concept", but you can see Ken on the top left, Ryu in the bottom right (I'm loving the harder look for him btw), and Jun on the bottom left (not sure about her at all, hope they improve that!)

Of course, the concept art in the centre looks spectacular!


Definitely interesting! Thanks for posting it.

I'd like to see Ken's face better here, as it seems distorted by his visor, and Jun looks a little odd to me too-it might be her helmet's big chin piece that's doing it. Ryu looks ferocious, which isn't an expression I'd normally associate with him, but I can believe that he could be pushed to it, especially if his teammates were threatened. The mecha reminds of some older concept art that I think came out when Kevin Munroe was still director, so I'll bet you're right that these are "early renders."

Thanks for posting the cover!!

Jun looks a little different to the images I've seen of her. She looks here like a cross between races (African/American and Asian), whereas in the pther pictures I've seen she looks like ... well .. kind of almost like the girl from the Final Fantasy movie ...

Springie, what do you think? This image is very different, yes?

Ken looks awful in that picture. I hope that it is distortion.... I'd say so. The original images for Joe look very, very, different to how they finally rendered him....

Oh God, I am getting so excited now!!!!

Ehh it's okay, but who am I to say? Am I the only one who gets a Schumacher vibe? It's got that rubbery look, plus you can see nipples.

Very interesting! From what I can see, I think Jun and Ryu look weird because of the lighting...I can still see that she looks similar to the original images we saw. One thing I noticed...her birdstyle looks very close to the original...I see a skirt, so I wonder if they're keeping the panty shots? LOL I can't tell much about Ryu...but I am thinking they chose those images on purpose...still trying to hold back on showing us what they actually look like.

That image of Ken is an early one, so it makes me wonder if they haven't changed him much...

There was a "team" shot of sorts with the boys all walking down the street about a year ago. I remember some people got upset because Joe had a cigarette in his fingers.

That has since been removed from the site, although... hang on I might just have it on my trusty Kingston stick...

I am sure, though, it was posted here somewhere..

Let me look around...

When I mention an image of Ken with really, really wide shoulders, I was referring to the images that came out last summer.

(Ryu looks awfully large here too!)

LB, that is the one I was thinking of when I said I did not like the looks of Ryu.
Looks like they are both on steroids - not a good thing for anyone let alone teens. If they insist they can make Ryu bulkier than the others but not like that (looking like the HULK) - please.

He looked like a rugby player thats for sure with those shoulders. And little butt...

Ryu is a bigger guy, but I hope they don't make him look chunky, just more muscluar than the others.
