Those are the character designs for the rubber-suit Z warriors, the stars of the Cell Games reenactment that was shown during the 25th Tenkaichi Budoukai (in the anime only). That normal-looking guy on the very right is what the actors look like without the costumes.

Are those by Mr. Akira Toriyama? They seem like Toei production art...

No, these are all things made by the animation staff to help all the animators draw and color the characters in a uniform way. I doubt Toriyama would have been involved at all.

I can't remember. I found them through Google.

The size comparison one is my fave too.

I always love seeing model sheets and other production drawings, nice find!

It's not as much fun seeing the animation studios blatantly ignore them though.. :P

I think your monitor's resolution is a little too high...

I think you have yours too low. They're only 500px across, that's ridiculously small for a scan.

I know they're small, but saying their thumbnails is going a little to far.

Hey Wait a sec, If Saiyan's hair never change, how did Nappa grow bold.

You just revived a five month old thread..

And in answer to your question, nobody knows, however since the Bardock special wasn't in the Manga, you can just call it filler, or say Nappa was vain in his younger days and was wearing a toupee.

Grows back, yes - how fast we are not sure. Although in movie 1 Goku got a whole section of hair sliced off and it was back in the next clip.

Dang, these pictures make me hope that VIZ will eventually accurately translate release all of the Daizenshuu here in America.

I'm wondering what position Viz would be in to release the anime-releated daizenshuu. I guess they and Funi could work together to release them (or maybe Funi would release their own translaton?).
Kanzenshuu: Is that place still around?
Sometimes, I tweet things
We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.

Do the rights to produce release Dragonball footage and release Dragonball books/manga really come "hand in hand"? Even if they did, I don't see any reason Funi would have a problem with VIZ releasing a book with information and screenshots of footage that they happen to have some rights to...considering the anime guide daizenshuu would be a sort of advertisement for the anime if anything.
