It is the design of the final form of the Lavos Encounter.
The fuck is that? After the absolutely menacing (and terrifying because of THE scream) 2nd form this turns up.
Now about the actual character design. We have a humanoid thing with two "hearts" floating next to it as targettable enemies. Lavos' humanoid appearance is obviously mimicking humanity. Were they going for an ancient alien look? An eldritch abomination (though I'm not sure I buy this because the 2nd form was so menacing looking)? Or was he supposed to appear this weird looking and small to show that deep down in Lavos this thing is is the actual Lavos and that the rest was just window dressing?
Now the fight part itself, I think it was adequately difficult challenge at the time to beat it.
I don't even know if I recognized the detail of the eye on my original crt.
Does anyone know if there are sketches by Toriyama? I figure he was designing something close to Cell
