Care of Twitter user @miiakira2017 we have images of unused Transformers G1 Headmasters Concept Art for your viewing pleasure.
@miiakira2017 has shared other interesing pieces of concept art previously. This time we have a nice group of G1 Headmasters ideas which we’d have loved to see in any Transformers fiction. Some of them seem to be the early ideas for the Japanese Exclusive Autobot Master Warriors (Kirk, Rodney, Loafer, Lione, Toraizer and Shuffler), but we also have a nice group of Headmaster with Beast modes such as a snake, a bull, a chameleon, a crocodile, a rhino, and more.
You can check the mirrored images after the jump, and then you can share your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Would be cool to see a remake that was Titans Return compatible.

No Education, Employment, Training?

This would be grate for the next TF Cartoon. Something to help TF Cartoons make a come back. It needs it if things keep going the way the going. Transformers will be gone. The TF Cartoons need new animateders writers. And the toy line need a Lot of work.

It reminds me of that Myskrion character Galvatron killed in RID #30.
NATO-BOT
Those are really neet.

these all look really nice. They'd look sillier in plastic I'm sure because these sketches are really dynamic but still. It makes me feel they could have done some cool stuff with Legends/TR by both giving updates to the rarities like Kirk and also bringing these guys to life in the modern day.
Soundwaver
All of them are awesome!

Even though not technically "news," so happy to see these again, they're great. And let's be honest, would rather see this on the front page instead of cyber battalion sightings in Romania or whatever.
Spyne98
Wow! These are really cool designs. I'd but all of them if a 3rd party ever made them. Or even Hasbro, but I kind of doubt they would be made.
Chris Bot
Woah, I want these nao! Gimmie that tank/cobra.

3P company was called Headrobots. First thing I thought of when I saw the one concept too. Miss these and wish a 3P that really wanted to venture from the G1 world a bit would use these unused molds to give us more headmasters.
Motor_Master
^And that one seemed to sell pretty well, it's a shame they haven't done more of them.

A 3rd party group made the snake one, I remember.
Purple Heart
Thats said though, the scans of them have been hard to find IMO.
Bass X0
Yeah, these aren’t news or worthy enough to be on the news forum imo. All the scans have already been shown to us in the Ark artwork book.
I imagine if someone just scanned the concept artwork of the Headmasters from the Ark book and posted it as news before this tweet, it would get moved or locked, not given a news credit.

@Trentulas is going to have a field day with this.

They give me a Megaman X Maverick vibe. I love it and would total buy them if they ever reviser the Titan Masters.
Jacer
Yeah I think so too…. I looked back the past 2 years under all the “G1 news” and couldn’t find anything, but I swear we’ve seen these before…
DoubleClouder
Yeah, I think the images showed up in one of the Generations book and I want to say the The Ark 2nd volume.
