Why isn’t Toriyama’s designs being shown anymore?

[Aim]

We know he drew the designs for Gohan Beast and Piccolo and Pan, but we still haven’t seen a glimpse of what they look like drawn from him. Is there a reason why we don’t get these tidbits from Tori anymore?

[Neo-Makaiōshin]

Because there's no need of the publich to see them nor the production team have any reason to show them.

There’s no reason to publish character sheets either except for curious fans, they should just let us see them.

I have the same question. They haven't even shared his designs for the Broly movie.

There were posters of some toriyama designs. I recall Orange Piccolo with red belt (as it differs from the movie)...

I think it’s ridiculous that they won’t show Toriyama illustrations, actually insane

[Super Saiyan Swagger]

I wish we saw some of his designs for the Broly film. It’s kind of crazy that we haven’t actually seen Toriyama’s take on Broly (besides his old design from the 90s). I could’ve sworn that there was an interview with a producer during Broly’s promotion saying that they would show off Toriyama’s work for the film. Never happened.

Thankfully they’ve shown off some of his work for Super Hero, like the Gammas, Karin, Dende and an illustration of Piccolo’s home. I’m hoping that we’ll see more of his work in the art book that comes with the 4K steel book of Super Hero.

Pictures for the upcoming japanese home release indicate that we'll probably get the designs with the special edition booklet.

Perhaps there actually aren't any Toriyama designs and is his part behind the scenes more limited than we think.

No, it's been confirmed that he contributed with plenty of designs and illustrations, but they have been very coy about showing them.

They've revealed these Toriyama designs so far:

Spoiler:

They've said that they changed the design from the Red Ribbon base from the design Toriyama delivered. Probably like they changed Beerus planet in Battle of Gods.

That’s true! We also aren’t getting as much insider knowledge to scripts. IIRC, Fused Zamasu was meant to be on par with two SSGSS’. Would love to see how Toriyama drew Gohan’s Beast form and whether his take on SSGSS has changed and he’s making them more muscular all of a sudden.

Maybe they are going to save them for a super exclusive super duper trooper mega cosmic magical Blue Ray release of DBS Super Heroe movie including Toriyama's Art sketches.... similar to starwars clone wars series did with their DVD boxes... oh wait they are not doing it? well, they should.

In addition to these, the official site just posted Toriyama's design of Pan in her school uniform, as one of their 24h exclusive designs from their Toriyama Archives series:

Nothing new, it was part of a past presentation promoting the new movie, but it's the first time they posted it online.

Toriyama draws digitally now, what a time to be alive.

[Luso Saiyan]

He's been doing it for more than a decade, I believe.
