Thought this might be of interest. This is the cover for the 2006/2007 Imagi Annual Report.
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."

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!!!!

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...
