If this is Motormaster, then those other very pretty cars could definitely be the Stunticons.
Which would be awesome. And Hasbro's answer to FansProject's Intimidator. (I'm still buying Intimidator. I'll have room on my shelf for a Hasbro Menasor, too.)
If these are indeed Movie-styled Stunticons, I'd probably get them over Intimidator, only because they're way out of my budget. Just hope that he doesn't turn out to be an ape like Revenge of the Fallen Devastator...
Yeah, I would hope it doesn't end up like devastator, or that thing they tried to pass off as bruticus. I mean seriously, it was 2012.. And bruticus was the best they could do? It's pathetic.

I'd be happy with Motormaster or Nemesis Prime. In fact, for years I've wanted third party trailer armour for Classics Nemesis that resesembled Motormaster.
I like the idea that Motormaster could be a Matrix Templar/ possess an affinity for the Matrix. It would add to his rivalry with Optimus. Just give him a G1-esque face like Movie Prime not some six eyed alien face with a robot beard.
If Nemesis Prime were the villain, it would follow the trend of the last two movies where the villain was a fallen Prime.

But what about War for Cybertron/Fall of Cybertron Breakdown and Dragstrip? Then we have that Bot Shots set of Stunticons, and TFSS Breakdown...
I get what you mean, actual fictional appearances of the Stunticons and Menasor.

Most people -do- like it, despite it's flaws (that's why they've repainted it SO MANY TIMES) . The ones that don't are just the vocal minority.

And to be fair, it's hard to engineer a group of poseable robots that convert into alien craft, while giving a majority of them the power to transform into two different limbs for a combined mode.

Their only real problem is the budget thing that happened with the FoC deluxes, being thin and light. If that hadn't been the case, I sincerely doubt anyone would have had any substantive complaints.

Given that we saw a rusted-out flat nose cab with a paintjob clearly inspired by G1 Optimus, and that this flat nose cab is Black-and-silver (with blue highlights no less), it's probably Scourge!

Regardless of who it may or may not be. That is a really far out customization on a cab over. I can't decide if it's actually "cool" or not but it's certainly unique.

Some new videos of the Frieghtliner chasing Optimus Prime (which is Black/Grey and White) and possibly a decepticon chashed by Autobot ?

Fellow Seibertron member MeGrimlocks has pointed us in the direction of Transformers 4 Michigan filming footage provided by YouTube user thelifeofyourtime. In this footage you can see Optimus Prime being chased by what is suspected to be Motormaster, complete with roadside explosions.

Looks like it's going to be intense and a lot of fun! Gonna be watching when it comes out next summer? Check out the videos above, and feel free to join the discussion and give us your thoughts and comments.
Keep your optics tuned to Seibertron.com for the latest in news and updates, and the best galleries around!

If that is indeed Motormaster, then it would seem that the sudden influx of cars are actually a mix of Autobots and Decepticons, Stunticons to be precise, rather than fully Autobots.
Just don't screw up the combined mode, if they decide to have them combine.

Awww yeah Motormaster! I was thinking that the previous comments about some of these exotic cars being Decepticons sounded logical, and I was thinking that truck couldn't be Ultra Magnus...
Plus, Bay already did Devastator, so its not unreasonable to hope for Menasor! Plus, he made the comment about pleasing fans, so maybe this is what he meant....

It's worth keeping that rusted-out flatnose cab we saw awhile back, with the G1 Optimus Prime silver stripe (and flames, because Bayverse). My money's on it being Scourge/Nemesis Prime.

BECAUSE it's Bayverse, as you stated by bringing up the flames on the silver rig, that would be a good reason to NOT lay any money down on it being Scourge/Nemesis Prime... or Motormaster for that fact. I'm betting it's none of the above and that neither of the flat-nosed rigs have anything to do with each other whatsoever. If it seems likely or plausible or remotely logical or having anything to do with previous iterations in the TF line over the last 29 years, go completely the opposite direction and that's how Bay is going to handle it.

Well since I am only really interested in the movie line toys,I wonder if they will bring back the higher level of engineering from the RotF line?
I'm especially excited/worried about Optimus Prime as DotM Prime was utter crap.

You're probably right, but it'd be something to flat out call it as Motormaster, say MENASOR loudly, and then find out I'm right. I don't even mind how badly Bay would butcher the characters/combiner - I'd be happy to see Menasor get some love again (even if it's abusive Bay-love).
It's a crime that Menasor has not had a re-release in any way.

I said the very same thing the other day....SOOOOOOOoooo tired of Bruticus and Devestator repaints and redos... Hell, I am even weary of my beloved Airialbots... BRING ON THE STUNTICONS!!! Just makes sense with all the high end cars and now the truck. Everyone keeps complaining that high end cars make horrible disguises... Well 1) Cons don't really care about their disguises for the most part and 2) look at G1!! You had Lambo Countachs, One of a kind rally Porches, supped up Datsuns...Hardly great disguises.
