Don Allan Figueroa is an American artist and a toy designer. Originally, he was the writer and artist of the fan-comic series "Macromasters," which featured his original designs, of which he would make working scratch-built toys. When Dreamwave Productions got the Transformers comic book license, Figueroa was initially signed on to illustrate packaging art for the Armada toy line, and subsequently he would pencil The War Within miniseries. For the latter, Figueroa designed a pre-Earth mode for every single character (with the exception of Megatron, whose design was done by Pat Lee) that appeared in the series. Aaron Archer took notice of his talents, and Figueroa now helps design toys for Hasbro, most notably the Titanium and Classics series, as well as contributing art to IDW Publishing's new range of Transformers comics.
