Thank to a tweet by Kei Zama on Twitter we have a look at the Transformers: Optimus Prime Wreck-Gar Unused Design Sketch for your viewing pleasure.
This sketch shows a more solid design than the one used for Wreck-Gar in the IDW Optimus Prime comics. You may see some similarities with the Combiner Wars Legends toy (a repaint/remold of Legends Groove) specially in the alt mode.
You can click on the bar to see the mirrored sketch after the jump and the sound off on the 2005 Boards!

A few issues:
1) That chest piece? It looks odd. If it's supposed to be a cool bandana type of thing, then it needs some color (before we can properly decide if it works).
2) He is TOO UNIFORM. He needs odd looking parts, arms that don't match, etc. Symmetry is a measure of beauty; Wreck-Gar is not supposed to be beautiful!

Yes…that'd be better…

Would be better to see a KO company oversize it and upgrade the engineering on it to make it look right in that scale. WEIJIANG, JUJIANG, WHERE YOU AT?!?!?!
Digger
She’s probably my favourite transformers artist.

I wish we had gotten that head instead of the POTP one. Damn stupid need to make it "G1!" with such a tiny head just to have "mirrors" acting as antennas.

I need an upsized CW Legends Wreck-Gar A.S.A.P….and…when is Rum-Maj getting a figure Has/Tak…???…

This would be a cool body for him to get when he\'s rebuilt. (He\'s just a head at the moment, iirc)

maybe we need an IDW spinoff spotlight on Wreckgar. get his character developed a little.

This is friggin awesome. I wish we could get a toy like this instead of always giving us shitty repaints of every bike mold.

Kei Zama\'s art is always top notch.

I saw this on Twitter and didn\'t realize he had a face there. I thought it was some kind of ground-based Macross Veritech….
RodimusSupreme
Oh yeah, they totally based it on the Combiner Wars toy.

Looks cool, although looking at that face, he looks like he’s up to something.
ZachimusPrime
Saw this on Instagram but didn’t even realize it was CW Groove until it was pointed out here haha

Third-Party reveal in 3…2…1…
marvel b
it's a super detailed CW legends wreck-gar!!!
Digger
Still totally cool, would not be mad if this is what we got. I need a figure of that wreck gar design though. And a Rum-Maj!
SG Roadbuster
this is pretty rad.
Nemesis Otaku
Nice! I'm fine with the design we got, but this one is also pretty cool.
