I found some more pics over at http://www.transformersthemovi...s.aspThere is a badass mustang cop car and new camaro (bumblebee? If so he got quite an upgrade). I can't wait to see how they do everything!

AVP was mostly 'model' acting with very little CG. It does make a difference when you use 'live' props vs. CG. Most audiences, whether they know it or not, can pick out CG in a heartbeat if you ask them about it.It does add depth to the movie to have the live stuff too.I'm hoping it'll be great!

they could have turned Bumblebee into a GTI I just don't see him as a camaro, but oh well.ninja turtles, too?!?! man, people have really run out of ideas huh? makes me wonder how movie's are gonna be when there aren't any old nastalgic franchises to make new/remade movies out of. Of course by then the movie's we're watching now would be classics and due for a remake.

He's supposed to be the little guy you want to root for. Camaro would have been better suited for Sunstreaker.
