My thanks goes to “Innocent_Eyes” from the Astro Boy Online forum for uncovering some images from Imagi’s upcoming CG animated feature film Astro Boy. In the forum is a snapshots of the character model of Astro and some concept art which were perhaps photograph from either Comic-con or Siggraph 2008. I have taken the liberty of enhancing and rescaling the snapshots with Photoshop for a clearer view. There is a few slight difference I notice from this one and the work-in-progress screenshot from a year ago but nothing too drastic. Other than that, the CG model is staying true to the original design by Osamu Tezuka. So what do you think of this interpretation of Astro?

I’m kind of excited about this. Though I wish it was 2D and not 3D, but I still have high hopes for it; TMNT was visually appealing. Until we actually see a trailer or actual scenes from the movie, it’ll be hard to gauge how cool or lousy this will be. Fingers crossed.

I approve.
