It looks like Rocket is now wearing a blue outfit (possibly the same one from the end of Vol. 1) with a hint of red in it, which is reminiscent of his 2008 GotG uniform. He also does indeed have a jetpack similar to Star-Lord's.

I like that Mantis is not green .... there are WAY too many blue and green people on Marvel =P

Sorry.

I meant "every mutant is blue and every alien is green" >=|

Ha ha. Just on the team there are two blue and two green people.

 

[Neoxon]

According to James Gunn, Yondu will officially join the Guardians. Nebula on the other hand is someone he was a bit coy about answering if she does officially join the team or not.

 

[Blade30]

Sorry for the double-post, but James Gunn officially released the concept art on his Twitter account.

Looks good, Mantis not looking green isn't really surprising.

Baby Groot though

The skin colored Mantis looks really creepy. In a sort of cronenbergian way

 

[jph139]

I like that Mantis is alien looking and not just "sexy Asian lady with antennae."

And YES, more Nebula, so good.

 

[IHaveIce]

Kinda disappointed by whom Gunn chose to join the team besides Mantis.. hopefully he did do a dumb decision with the Villian/ Peter's father aswell

 

[GAMEPROFF]

At this point it would surprise me if anyone other then Adam Warlock would be Peter father

 

[The Kree]

My money is still on Starhawk for the sake of getting another OG Guardian in there.

It's a fail with no Mantis.

Oddly enough, I'm getting some classic Justice League vibes from this......I love it.

 

[BLACKLAC]

HOLY FUCK

 

[Pachimari]

Wait.. They will all have jetpacks now? I thought it would only be Rocket and Star-Lord.

I love that concept by the way. So we're gonna see them fight monsters, nice!

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Looks like a monster from a Dr. Strange comic

 

[Quick]

They all have to wear jetpacks, or else they'd look like d'ast idiots.

Not Baby Groot though.

 

[The Kree]

Baby Groot is just happy to be in the picture.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Baby Groot should stay away from the fire

 

[Neoxon]

The monster in the concept art will be in the actual movie.

It's called an abilisk, apparently.

 

[Nyanmaruz]

I gotta say that I'm still not a big fan of how casual Star Lord's costume looks.
Hopefully in Infinity War, they can pull off some of these looks to change things up.

I'm actually glad they went with the red jacket on Star-Lord instead of the blue, though it would've been cool if they tied the blue colour scheme to him stealing a uniform from the Nova Corps and just messing around with it.

 

[Dalek]

This is interesting because up until now the MCU movies have always taken place in "Real time".

I think he mentioned around the time of Comic-Con that Vol. 2 would take place a few months after Vol. 1.

 

[BrokenFiction]

This could interestingly help out the Blind Gossip rumor that one of the GotG members (likely Pratt) was going to be the special guest star that would blow up Twitter during the premiere of Agents of SHIELD.

Man, I am dying to see this film.

 

[The Kree]

That's the kind of thing that probably looks better as concept art than live action. Flailing CG tentacle monsters are rarely exciting for some odd reason. If they lean heavy on the comedy in that scene it'll be OK though.

Yeeeaaaaah

Expect to see this as the opening scene imo.

Something closer to the original concept art would've been perfect, but I like his red coat and mask quite a lot. Gamora, though, looked a lot better in the art, but Groot looks a lot better in the film.

And at the end of the day, at least it's not this,

 

[Neoxon]

*barfs a little in mouth*

Anything is better than........that.

 

[The Kree]

I do wanna see Gamora with the hooded cape at some point.

 

[shingi70]

Wrong thread.

 

[BLACKLAC]

Didn't one of you guys say Bella throne was a low key freak, well she came out as Bi.

good fucking god at that pic

Spoiler

name?

.

What does this have to do with Guardians?

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Gamora's alternate designs are much better than what we got. I dunno why they settled with eyebrowless and pointy cheekboned Gamora when they had superior designs. You could barely see any of the implanted shit.

Dont know her name, but I saw the pic when.my girlfriend told me to pick out a swimsuit. Despite being the sMe body type she told me no.

 

[LycanXIII]

Guess a small part got cut.

oh my god they cut out chris pratt

 

[Platy]

Made they are just going bonsai on Groot

 

[obin_gam]

Mantis?
Sylvester Stallone?
Nathan Fillon?

 

[Neoxon]

Mantis?
Sylvester Stallone?
Nathan Fillon?

Nah, Mantis is too crucial of a character in Vol. 2 based on what James Gunn said.

 

[HeySeuss]

Sorry Stan Lee, you're cameo serves no purpose in this film.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

It better not be someone hot!!!

 

[tomtom94]

Stallone's small part is the first thing that springs to mind - I don't think Fillion had a role confirmed beyond the movie posters, did he?

 

[Jonogunn]

Rogue got cut.

 

[AnotherDayAnotherDollar]

Vin Diesel got cut. All he does is say "I am Groot" anyways.

 

[Pachimari]

Is Vin Diesel even doing Groot's voice this time? I assumed he wouldn't but I guess he is. He might be able to do a consistent light voice.
