Is this form of Broly designed by Toriyama?

I don't think any of his forms were aside from base, as that was all that was shown in the ONLY art work that even indicates toriyama had anything to do with him.

However, that's just his super saiyan form, either discolored due to the "color flip" that occurs when some saiyans transform (It happened for Bardock too), or due to being held back by the mind control device. Either way, it's just super saiyan.

The acutal green-haired LSSJ form wasn't desinged by Toriyama either?

Toriyama designed all forms of Broli, but he didn't color them.

James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

wow, my memory was way off... hasn't even been that long since I seen that.
however, it mentions no where about his hair color post transformation aside from the colored image of his LSS form which for some reason shows yellow hair instead of green, which we know to be his actual hair color.

Also, in the bottom right, the "LSS" form does seem to be accurately muscled.

In all honesty, it seems as though they had an idea that they wanted him to flesh out for them, then they added the minor details later.

So I would think it's safe to assume that the colorations were the work of the animation team behind the movie and not Toriyama.

Unless another user around here can pull something up that I've never seen before... which at this rate could happen.
