Kingdom Hearts hidden designs found in the Kingdom Hearts design document; Toy Story world design & Kingdom Hearts tentative title discovered


Jake

Recently there have been designs found that were never before seen from Kingdom Hearts that were hidden deep inside the Kingdom Hearts design document. With a look through the design document, it appears that Kingdom Hearts was once named Kingdom of Hearts.

 

Additionally, there is a picture of what looks like a Toy Story world and how it would look on the world selection map. It includes Andy's house on top of a Pizza Planet rocket. Also note that each character from the design document had a written bio describing each character and their roles in Kingdom Hearts.

 

The designs found in the document were never released to the public before. You can view all hidden designs and each character's written bio below with credit going to Nathan McMahon on photobucket for originally finding these images and KHInsider for the tip.

 

 

Sora:

The hero of this story. Sora is a fourteen-year-old boy who has his own personal issues like every other teenager does, but he always keeps a positive attitude towards everything.

Simple-minded at times, but his sense of justice is very strong.

"Sora" means "sky" in Japanese, representing his adventurous spirit.

 

Kairi:

The heroine of this story. Also aged 14.

A few years ago Kairi moved into the island where Sora and Riku live.

She may appear gentle and fragile, but inside she has a strong will that does not bend to any force.

Her name, "Kairi", bears the meaning of "sea", home of all life forms.

 

Riku:

Sora's best friend. He may seem a lot more collected and cooler than his same-age best friend, yet he remains expressive of his own thoughts.

Always curious towards the unknown, he begins to question the small, closed world in which he lives.

His name, "Riku" means "land" in Japanese.

 

Donald:

The court wizard.

With the order left by the king who disappears in the beginning of the story, Donald goes for an adventure searching for the hero. His vibrant character and quack-talk is sure to complicate things, adding even more fun to the story.

 

Goofy:

Captain of the royal cavalry.

Goofy, though a captain of his own troops dislikes battles and carries only a shield with him.

Goofy becomes Donald's partner in this journey, complimenting wacky Donald with his slow-talking, easy-going style.

 

Minnie Mouse:

King Mickey's queen.

As the queen she takes charge of the castle after Mickey's disappearance, appoints Goofy and Donald to search for the king in her place.

 

Daisy Duck:

A noble lady.

A sweet maid who fancies Donald, she collects her courage(?) to send him off to his mission.

 

Chip:

The mechanical engineer working for King Mickey.

The underground airship hanger is his working place as well as playing grounds.

It is Chip who designs the SS GummiBlock, allowing our heroes to reach other worlds.

 

Dale:

A mechanic working with Chip.

He maintains and, if necessary, primps up the SS GummiBlock which Donald and Goofy boards for the trip.

1. Isamu, that's clearly Toy Story. Don't tell me you don't recognize Al's Toy Barn? Or the Pizza Planet Rocket? Those of us who want to see the world in the game aren't fooling our eyes with our desire, we see it because it's actually there.

 

2. Is it just me, or does the original concept for Destiny Islands look 10 times more fun!? It looks like it was going to introduce a similar sliding mechanic to Deep Jungle's. I'm telling ya, if I had an island like that off the coast of my town, I wouldn't spend nearly as much time inside as I usually do.

I loved reading through this article and looking at all the images!  Haha, Sora looked awesome with his Deep Jungle attire!  It really would have been awesome if Sora's outfit would have changed for each and every world he visited!  But hey, I'm still happy with the way things are now! :D

 

And wow, so Toy Story has been thought of being in this series since the beginning!  I think that with all the years that have passed, one can bet that Nomura may have probably considered putting Toy Story in Kingdom Hearts III!  This is very interesting, indeed!  But wait, if Toy Story would have been in Kingdom Hearts I, would the world's story have taken place in Toy Story 2's storyline?  Because we only see Al's Toy Barn in a commercial, and only briefly, in the first Toy Story.  The only time where Al's Toy Barn is fully explored is in Toy Story 2! :O

 

Anyways though, gahhh, Toy Story! x3

 

Edit: As for the question if I prefer Kingdom Hearts or Kingdom Of Hearts, I go with Kingdom Hearts. :3

Hmm, perhaps it was going to be an original plot that combined both movies considering that some of the world plots like Atlantica & Halloween town had original plots that did not explicitly follow the movie. Plus, Pizza Planet was only in TS1, and Andy's House looks like his OLD house that he moved out of in the movie, and the thing next to it above the rocket looks kinda like its supposed to be Sid's house or something like that. Or maybe the building of Pizza Planet? 

 

I also wonder if the world would have been titled "Tri-County Area", given that Hamm mentions that as the name of the place in Ts2. Also considering that there seems to be multiple areas, that seems like the appropriate name, as the world apparently would have consisted of 3 (Tri, get it?) different places to explore: Andy's House, Al's Toy Barn, and Pizza Planet (and possibly Sid's place) 

 

 I wonder how Nathan McMahon got this document and if this has anything to do with the Kingdom Hearts folder set to be released.
