Concept Art#

Create-A-Toon concepts, showing the Toon in a workshop and a clothing store. Those background graphics can also be found in the Spotify leak.

Later Playground Plan#

A slightly later plan, but before the conceptual art was made.

Late Playground Renders#

Between the Safe Zone Activities from September and the Designer's Atlas from February 2001, the renders of the Playgrounds are made, except in a very early state.

Toontown Central

The plaza originally had hedge mazes.
The designs of the Toon Hall, Bank and Schoolhouse were completely different.

Donald's Dock

Daisy Gardens

There were no buildings present, instead with a visible Trolley track.

A slightly later version was found, though from an unknown source. This version now has buildings and a slightly updated flower.

Minnie's Melodyland

The Brrrgh

Donald's Dreamland This appears to have not yet been rendered at that time, appearing as simple concept art with textures. But the Playground is still in a very early state.

April#

Several clothing textures that were made on April 4, 2001. These appear to be after the "dresses" were scrapped at this point.

Unknown#

Fighting With Other Toons#

This artwork shows a concept of other Toons participating in Cog Battles, which details a rough idea of the setting and other appearances of Toon species. The gags present in the artwork appear in the final, with the exception of the fire hydrant, which may have been reworked into the Fire Hose. Interestingly, Toons are seen wearing Accessories there, which would not be added until very late into the game's lifespan.

Beta 1 Installer Screenshots#

From the installer of Toontown Online Beta 1 in September, they show drastically earlier images of the game.

Beta 1 Installer	sv1.0.5	sv1.0.24.02

Create-A-Toon was slowly starting to take its final form in this build, in comparison to the Alpha leaks.

The background was different, which had a Piet Mondrian painting in the background.
The Mickey Mouse model looked lower-poly, resembling that of the Toon Tag build.
There was a suspender-type outfit from the earlier builds that was available on the Create-A-Toon.

Beta 1 Installer	sv1.0.5 (Recreation)

Toon Name Tags were yellow instead of orange.
The font for Toon name tags used Comic Sans MS instead of ImpressBT.
The Laff Meter had a slightly different design, and used the cat instead of a dog likely for placeholder purposes.
The starting Laff Meter was originally 50 instead of 15.
The shirt textures were different and brighter, some of them would end up being scrapped.
Toons originally had colored gloves, a design that would remain on Gus Gooseburger and Chicken Louie NPCs.

Beta 1 Installer	sv1.0.5 (Recreation)

The Trolley seemed to be unfinished, where it had placeholder-y blue textures on some parts.
The Trolley games sign was different.
The running on the trolley glitch seemed to be present in this build.

Beta 1 Installer	sv1.0.5 (Recreation)	sv1.0.24.02

Quite possibly the earliest screenshot out of the batch, resembling that of the earlier builds.

Donald's Dock looks very incomplete, where the foundation is set but the textures are in a placeholder state while the sky is teal rather than cloudy. The door, window and lamp textures are also reused from Toontown Central.
- The boardwalk textures are also placeholder, which can be found in the Spotify leak.
The BigWig's outfit was purple rather than blue; that matches with an early draft of the Legal Suits (Lawbots) that had textures that would be used for Sellbot outfits. The outfit also lacks any screws and bolts, which would become a staple for Cogs to distinct them from real businessmen.
The unused squirt animation is present in this screenshot except with the Seltzer instead of Fire Hose.
The Toon was colored white, which cannot be obtained in the final except with the No Color Just For Fun ToonTask reward.

Summer#

Developer Images#

A few developer images were released.

Beta 1 Installer	sv1.0.5 (Recreation)

Most of the final shirt textures have been implemented.
The infamous "sign lamp" is seen in The Brrrgh.
The ImpressBT font is being used for notices, while the text font still uses Comic Sans MS.
The Laff Meter didn't show the health visually being decreased.

The Toontown FY10-11 Story#

https://old.reddit.com/r/Toontown/comments/ivz2aa/the_toontown_fy1011_story_taken_from_the_toontown/ From the Toontown Online Development Archives, there is a story diagram detailing the plans that would happen throughout 2010-2011.

Many of the plans had happened over the timespan, with the notable exception of the "Supreme Cog Leader" which never appeared at the end of the fiscal year of 2011. It was meant to be a prelude to Toontown 2.0.

Additional Field Offices#

https://old.reddit.com/r/Toontown/comments/geysmx/in_light_of_recent_events_take_this_neverbefore/ Besides Sellbot Mover and Shaker Field Offices, there were planned to be ones for other Cog Types.

Scrapped Accessory#

In the August 21, 2011 Design an Accessory Contest blog, a Pig Toon can be seen wearing Sneakers in a yellow color. This color was never released during the game's lifespan.
