Part of my duties as a design intern is to draw up concepts for new or existing toys.<br /><br />We recently received the unfortunate news that something I drew some concepts for isn't going to make it to production, so I figured I'd post some guys up here.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ZcUQeWoGJ0/TUcrG8g622I/AAAAAAAAAEE/fEryuS1Uu7w/s1600/230765995.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 114px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ZcUQeWoGJ0/TUcrG8g622I/AAAAAAAAAEE/fEryuS1Uu7w/s200/230765995.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568466862590319458" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ZcUQeWoGJ0/TUcrHEgRKbI/AAAAAAAAAEM/OguTqHbhTpE/s1600/moredudes.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 115px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ZcUQeWoGJ0/TUcrHEgRKbI/AAAAAAAAAEM/OguTqHbhTpE/s200/moredudes.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568466864735070642" border="0" /></a>The product was an RC Car, and I was tasked with designing a fun driver for it.
