as far as i can tell, spyro got 3 long bones on the wing, if you know what i mean. this guy has 2. unless you loose a bone trough age i dont think is him, but mabye his father or a character who just so happend to have the same colors.

Well,Lyra,let's look at it this way. Bones connect and form one bone in humans and other animals as they age, so why not dragons?

yes but he had 3 when he was small. and he lost one when he was bigger? i have never heard of a dragon loosing a wingbone, or a 'finger' since some people look at the dragons wings as arms. this is new :/

True,but,if that IS Spyro,it's a simple artist error.

If this is Spyro, it's just a video game character, and it is made up so there is no logic to it. Any dragon has no logic as they are made up.

You speak truth. But, we must keep the topic living with it this far. More senseless theories with a side of ignorance toast,anyone?

This topic is just full of nonsense talk now to me.

why? because everyon elses option is stupid?

This topic started off alright, but now I'm my opinion, it is just becoming full of randomness. It's just random accusations on a character that never made final production. The character could have been anything. Like maybe Spyro's mentor, maybe like an Ignitus type of character? Who knows.

''everyones option is stupid. randomness is stupid. if you want to discuss something it MUST be something popular.

Sorry for having an opinion about the topic. You see, now you're being hypocritical.

meh, im just fooling around. your option is an option and that. its just that it sounded like you where saying that this topic is foolish and everyone elses option was foolish. of course i could have misunderstood the whole thing.

i mean, arent we allowed to be a little random?

Yes, but it is starting to get ridiculous now, it's just a character that didn't make it into game production, end of, really. I can understand that it could be Spyro when he's a lot older, and his Dad, I was just saying in my own way, that this topic is getting kind of boring to me now, and this is all I ever see in the original Spyro game forum, you'd think you would see something more important about it than something random like this after a while.

fine. its boring to you. ok i compleatly understand. but you know, you could allways, NOT go in this topic anymore if it bores you. but of course, youre free to say whatever you want. mabye there isnt much to discuss anymore on the original spyro games you know. mabye those important topics are already made. or mabye YOU can make some topics. of course, that is if you havent already made plenty before.

just because its boring to you, doesnt mean what we should stop. just saying.

Fine, but at least I've had my say on it.

Im sure thats him in an earlier design, ive seen it somewhere.

I really doubt that's an early design of Spyro, I've seen early designs of Spyro on an official site somewhere, and the never shown this picture at all.

Some of Spyro's first designs were of an older dragon, but they were only in sketch form. Creation of Spyro.

That's the site that I went on! But I couldn't find an older sketch of Spyro, give me a few, I'll take a closer look around.

*A few moments later*

Yes, there are a few sketches of an older Spyro design, I must have forgotten about those ones. So it could be an earlier design of Spyro, but I can't understand that when the game was finished and it's in the American manual, it feels like it should have been the very last dragon to free, and perhaps it could have been the leader of all dragons, or perhaps Spyro's father. Then again, that's how I'd like to think about it. I think Insomniac quickly took that dragon out of development just before it got released.

A developer probably has a story for this, just like in Spyro 3 in Midnight Mountain about the random island that is pretty much impossible to get to without some form of glitch or cheat.

From what Charles says, Insomniac didn't do any work at all based on those earliest sketches. They started making the game after Spyro's design as the little dragon was finalized. I think that model was either a cut story element, or they were just playing around and made an older Spyro/his dad for fun. If I were still in touch with Oliver, I'd ask him, but, alas, it's been years since I talked to him, so this is likely to remain a mystery.

Fair enough, a mystery it will be

I just realized it has to be spyro not his father because purple dragons only come every 10,000 years

1. This is NOT TLoS
2. It's 10 generations wich means 300 years

If you remember YotD, 10 Classic generations is 120 years.

What? Lol.

I think it may be his father. I thought that that purple dragon that you freed in Dark Hollow was some kind of relative to him since they were both purple.

If you remember Insomniac Spyro at all, purple dragons are common and they're everywhere.

Where? I don't remember any purple dragons from YotD, and you freed NONE in STD.

Wasn't that dragon in the game though? Or one that looked like him? I don't remember the level name but I think it was the one you could get to in the first homeworld in that one hedge maze.

There are a few purple Artisans, some purple Dream Weavers and Magic Crafters, and one very purple Peace Keeper. And in YotD, the opening cutscene shows off a purple adult dragon, not to mention several purple baby dragons. The "purple = super special secret snowflake of magic" didn't appear until Shadow Legacy.

I meant of THAT shade of purple... like Spyro.

The pitcure of this dragon is not included on my manual, probably because it is PAL. American covers always look so much better than PAL.

Really? Then how come ours was fiery compared to the American boxart? I've been wondering who started the fire, it could have been Spyro but he's not old enough to start a fire THIS big.

Mine doesn't have a fiery background and it's PAL, just displays Spyro running with a monster chasing him. I just think the fire is meant to resemble Spyro then.

Hell yesh. And although Classic Spyro is cute, he also looks strong too.

I hope not that dragon looks kinda dorky.

I dunno which one is more uglier: ToS Spyro or the Skylanders Spyro? Might as well listen to or sing the song, "U.G.L.Y." by Daphne & Celeste, to take the mickey out them both.

No no, the Adult purple dragon in the picture.

Also if I may be so bold to say I liked the Spyro appearance changes up until Skylanders that is.

At least there is only one person commenting 'Goonro' instead of a bunch of people commeting 'An arrow to the knee'. I suppose both are bad enough, but I still find Goonro to be funny.

Okay now that I can't argue with.
Arrow to the knee jokes are pretty worse.
