Guy Cassaday discusses his initial concept for the Desert Fox, and which elements were price reduced out of the product we received.
The sketch to the right was illustrated by Guy Cassaday
in 2011, long after its creation in 1987. |
During Guy's first few years on the brand, he did it all: from conceptualization, to ideation, refinement, color studies, presentation illustrations, exploded views for cost input, and part breakdown illustrations. The photo gallery below shows Guy and his two part presentation art for the Desert Fox 6 W.D. Although this was created relatively far along in the development process, many changes were still in store for this concept.
As the Desert Fox 6 W.D. moved toward production, the working spotlights and K-Resin® tinted glass windshield were cost reduced out of the design.

The Desert Fox 6 W.D. made its debut in the 1988 Toy Fair catalog, seen below. Note the small antenna on top of the computer station. This was replaced by a larger antenna mounted on the rear bumper. The Desert Fox’s package art was based off of the prototype
and features the smaller computer antenna. Click the images below to enlarge them.
