I mean, on my secondary hard drive and my external for my PC, I have more concept art of not just toho stuff, but Tsuburaya. But sadly, the motherboard died on a not even 7 month old computer, and now I'm waiting for it to come back and I am on a stupid laptop.

Dang. Literally every thread on this forum needs more Narita.

First one is for Super Godzilla! He has some pretty good ones, too, I quite love the 4-legged one. That was something closer to how I may've pictured a Godzilla/Ghidorah hybrid when I was younger.

Also, an asinine amount of Yamato Takeru concepts have been posted recently. I feel like the Kumasogami and Utsuno Ikusagami we got are the best of their respective designs, but there are some pretty good alternatives for Orochi, Kaishin Muba, and Amano Shiratori.

I know this is really stretching the idea of "unused" but I just love this Jet Jaguar concept art, and really like the psuedo samurai look it has going. I wish we could see this concept return some day, but hell I'll take any JJ return we get.

The only one that looks good is the second one. That should be repurposed as a new monster.

Wasn't that concept art of JJ intentionally supposed to be as hideous as possible or something?

Yeah here it is: "Nakano was initially reluctant in reinventing Red Alone as Jet Jaguar, due to feeling that there were already too many Ultraman-like heroes appearing at the time. However, he became inspired after deciding that rather than focusing on making Jet Jaguar's design attractive, he would aim for it to be deliberately unattractive and obnoxious." -Wikizilla

Well, they failed miserably at doing that.

Hmm, those back spines look an awful lot like the '98 spines. Segmented armor is a neat idea.

That Red King Woo looks like it would eat the girl instead of protecting her.
The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made.

The strength of the vampire is that people will not believe in him.

More like "throw giant chunks of snow at the girl until she falls over".
