Robots in Disguise

You've seen him transformed, have you?

Alien Jet.

Yeah, great disguise. No one will suspect a futuristic, heavily-armed jet as a possible threat.

Because we all know that Starscream came from Cybertron looking like a fucking F-14 Tomcat. It's not like they changed their transformed appearance to match Earth veichles after they arrived here or anything.

OH WAIT

The only problem with Megatron is that he's pretty bland. There needs to be something hanging off him, like wings, or a cannon.

It's better than what Japan's offically getting.

While I agree that the Megatron design for the movie is by far the most drastic departure from any of his previous incarnations, he looks every bit alien and inhuman as he probably should, being the main antagonist. And personally, I always found his G1 design to be very bland, even for its time, so I don't mind the fresh take at all. The "battle mode" head still bears a resemblance and the rest will be up to the voice actor anyway.

dam.. i hate the loook of megatron. Maybe if the robot was not Megatron i'd say it was alright, but ugh.. I want my Tank/Gun Megatron!!

Updated set information from IGN.

Good news is Soundwave will more than likely play a big role in the sequel. Sounds sexy. However, as with any news that comes forth regarding the movie, the bitching will now commence.

Of course I'm going to bitch. I don't want to wait another 3-4 years to see how Soundwave will be handled.

Fucking right on. Transforming noise FTW. And if they get Weller to scream "Decepticons attack!" or "it's over Prime" I'll be as giddy as a schoolgirl.

mwaaw-mwaaw-mwa-mwa-mwa

Fixed.

That just screams a "I'LL SUCK YOUR COCK" photoshop.

He looks like he's stoned. Or constipated. My problem with it now is that these designs are really shitty. I mean, I've gotten a bit used to Prime's body, but Prime's face and Bumblebee's face and Megatron's face. They just plain suck. Really poorly designed.

How can a robot look constipated? =p

Perhaps his fuel line is blocked :V
Anyways, I have no problems with the bodies, but the heads are... yeah. Megatron is okay, he has a certain Sauron vibe going one. Bumblebee looks downright frightening. Big teddy eyes in a metal shell. Way to give me nightmare. Optimus, well it's hard judging by those small pictures, but he seems more sad or depressed than I'd picture him.

You know, I think the eyes are going to light up (yellow for autobots, red for decepticons). I'm looking at Prime's face and it does look like there should be some lights in those empty sockets.

Regardless, my problem with Prime's look is that he has too many internal parts sticking out. It's like he's unfinished or something. I'm immediately reminded of Episode I C-3PO.

I almost smiled and went "That's cool!" when I saw this, until I saw the "Revised by..." part, meaning it's a fan-made fake. Here you go:

I think it looks damn good, but only time is gonna tell how good it's gonna be, same thing for the simpsons movie

I wish there was a (at least)a 14" statue for that Prime design, that would be crazy for the ammount of articulation points.

Gatta wait and see if there is one that at least matches the design.

Hopefully the keep them looking like metal. I can imagine them going back to the editing room and decide that they need to look glossy and almost plastic.

Oh please no, it has to be a real as possible, when I used to watch the show, I thought our volvo was one!

Does anyone know what happened to that competition to have Optimus Prime say a line that your created. I remember about a month ago the one in the lead was 'Do a tumble roll' ????

Hopefully they realised it was a stupid fucking idea to generate some fan interest and did away with it. Nothing worse than Prime standing up against ten other bots and shouting the line "I LIKE BUNNIES" as he rushes in to blast them away.

official teasar trailer is up http://www.tfw2005.com/ not a whole lot to see, but looks to be pretty much what I expected, and thats not a bad thing
