now how the hell do you get a semi truck out of that? I like the design and I know they're trying something different, but I still prefer the classic version.

....? Unless this is supossed to be Prime's teenage son... I think they should've canned the flames.Really that doesn't look anything close to the classic Prime, but then again nothing about this movie (except for the actual concept) is classic

I saw some early pictures of him and I'm less than enthused.But in the meantime, here's a picture of the Bumblebee prop on his feet

Yeah, I've seen that one. Bumble bee was only a few feet taller than a human (in the old cartoon) wasn't he?Gotta love moderization, huh?

How i cant wait to see this thing. but yea i prefere the old Optimus than this modernized one. and wasnt Bumble Bee a VW Bug not the new Camaro?!

yeah, he was a VW. That's why he was so short compared to everyone else. If a camaro transformed turns out that huge I wonder how tall Prime is gonna be...apparently, moderization also requires marketing of new cars

Pontiac has a part in this movie aswell not sure which side and who it is. but it is the solstice.http://www.putfile.com/pic.php?img=3268634

A Solstice transformer... (removed)?!?So where is the Vibe transformer?I think the old school Optimus and Bumblebee would be MUCH better, but you can't have everything.

I see you Bumble Bee.here is the face of Bumble Bee.the pic is a link to the bigger picture.

Hell they changed bumble bee to a camaro, anything's possible at this pointEDIT: It's JAZZ!!!

Quote, originally posted by NascarXprt »How i cant wait to see this thing. but yea i prefere the old Optimus than this modernized one. and wasnt Bumble Bee a VW Bug not the new Camaro?!Bumblebee not being a VW Bug is due to licensing issues. VW will not grant a licence to use their vehicles in any Transformers lines.

stupid liscensing...Who wouldn't want their cars to be associated with giant, world saving, good-guy robots? Apparently GM does

yea i remember some one saying that about the licensing issue but oh well and megatron looks hideous!! Blackout looks awsome and Jazz is awsome! ive been browsing link from link seeing and reading bout this movie and what it has very cool from what i have been reading and seeing.

lol, bumble bee could've been a vibe... oh wait.. GM doesn't advertise the vibe...

if that were the case id go get the vibe painted like bumble bee and and the Autobot symbol to the hood of the car......wait a tick... let me make this on the PC first.....evil grinning.

^^^ GOOFBALL!

Can't wait to see the Bumblebee Vibe!

Beast Wars was better...

lol, well you can keep beast wars

yea the original and G1 were the best transformers that they produced

Quote, originally posted by Herb »Not exactly sure, but here's a picture of the actual truck.also they should can the long nose truck and do the bull dog faced truck.

Quote, originally posted by ANO_Vibe »lol, well you can keep beast wars I will, go Cheetor!

Quote, originally posted by NascarXprt »also they should can the long nose truck and do the bull dog faced truck.I agree. To me the Freightliner COE is Optimus Prime.

light our darkest hour, herb! That's pretty cool. I saw a bust of optimus that looked great. I think it's the same guy/company that did that autobot matrix, too

This is still a work in progress concept. Like most other comments that i've read I don't see how these things will actually work/transform when the toys get realeased. Here's more info http://www.seibertron.com/news/view.php?id=8334

Here's a sneak peak at the design for Jazz the Pontiac Solstice.

gundam...? looks cool, but like everything else, it's not jazz. they said the hood of the car would be his chest and it's just the grille & headlights. crazy concepts...

Here's a picture of the Optimus head prop

Just to add a little bit to the conversation. The film crew was recently in downtown Detroit doing some filming around the old Train Station here as well as some other shots. There were several locals hired as extras (but not myself). Interested to see what the movie will look like.Mike

oooooo....where can I get one of those That would look good on top of my house or somethingOptimus is gonna be freakin huge! like 38 feet or something. That figure never really clicked until I saw that

man that is HUGE!!! i finally saw my first movie poster at a theatre Sat night. it looks just like the "Offical Site" for the movie.

yea it looks loght but looks can be desiving

That's what reinforcements are for I could have Prime's head as my loft, lolAnyway... The scale of these things is crazy, but then again Bay is going for as "realistic" as he can get. He took measurements of different parts of the TFs vehicles and applied that to the dimensions of the robots. Hence the long-nosed cab for Prime in order to give him some extra height The cartoon is close but there's always the glorious enigma of Megatron (i.e. big robot --> little gun) yay, Transformer magic

Short story:I went to Pirates of the Caribbean opening night, they started to show the teaser for Transformers, and I'm thinking to myself: great another alien movie, but when the title was shown, the entire movie theater went crazy, people were cheering and clapping, and I was like: yeah, bringing back the childhood. The end

lol
