Heyo, I was just wondering if u have any plans to make models of President Rag or Tima from Metropolis?

I'd be really excited to see them in your style if you're planning to!

I might model Rag eventually, yeah!

Colour test + accompanying shitty comic that progressively gets lazier

Cobalt's cool pick-up line

don’t worry, the word “fag” is included in the 2009 children’s movie “astro boy”

Unsurprisingly, the Japanese cover works even better

(continuation of last post, I wish you could attach more than one video to a post)

I wanted to test the age-old theory that Dear Maria Count Me In can fit any anime OP, and I think the results speak for themself.

(assuming this is about DP Ember)

On my first, almost completely blind watchthrough of Danny Phantom, I saw Ember on the episode title card and instantly went "she's voiced by Tara Strong, doing her evil Twilight voice". I hadn't seen or heard that character before, and I had no idea if Tara was even in the show at all.

I know its all just tara strong but idk Ember specifically sounds so much like Twilight Sparkle to me

Sigh I forgot 2 add Pluto uran

[canisbeanz]

Guys, he was there the whole time! We just didn't see him, honest!

Hypothetical 03 Cobalt design bc I wanted to see if I could do the 03 style, and the answer was yes, but it took a century to figure out.

Funny hat I gave him because I saw it on Animal Jam and thought it was cute.

My long child who keeps getting cut bc Tezuka Productions are cobaltphobic >:(

GIVE ME MY SON BACK

Source: Astro Boy Online Forums, Dizrythmia’s Twitter

On Astro Boy Online Forums, a user by the name of Dizrythmia shared two sales sheets for the 1980 Astro Boy series that were available at trade shows. They were made prior to production of the English versions of the 1980 series in an attempt to get as many licensees on board as possible in order to know that money is coming in for the production. One of the character arts of Atom has a copyright from 1982, indicating that these sales sheets originate from that same year (it is on the left page of the fourth image shared in the source links).

Of note in these sales sheets:

The synopsis on the fifth image indicates that the show takes place in 2033.

These sheets indicate that there’s going to be 51 episodes; there are actually 52 episodes of the 1980 series, but the English version combined the first two episodes into one episode. This indicates that the English version’s production staff knew early on that they wanted to combine the first two episodes into one episode.

Some characters have a different name in these sales sheets. For example, Shunsaku Ban, known as Mustachio and Daddy Walrus in the English version, is called Daddy Mustache in these sales sheets.

Perhaps of most interesting note: the description of Astro Boy in the third image talks about Atom fighting Blue Knight. Blue Knight never appears in the 1980 Astro Boy series. In the sixth and final image shared by Dizrythmia, character art of Blue Knight and Cobalt appear, indicating that these two characters may have originally been planned to appear in the 1980 Astro Boy series. Also, Uran appears in her 1963 series dress, and Skunk has an eggshell-colored face in contrast to his teal-colored face that he has in the 1980 series. It is possible that, while these English sales sheets originate from 1982 (the year that the English version debuted), that these sales sheets were also used in Japan prior to the release of the 1980 Astro Boy series on October 1, 1980. The visual design of the sales sheets would have been the same, but obviously the English text would have been Japanese text.

All six images can be viewed in the sourced links.

how old is rock holmes??

I'm not sure TBH. It depends on which version, I think in 03 he's like 16-ish? But Ik he's in his 20s in some so idk, depends on which version ur talking about.

If you mean literally, how long has the character been around, then 76 years I think. He's older than Astro and a lot of Tezuka's other characters.
