ENews International has posted a short article about the upcoming Transformers Movie, including some character bios for all the Transformers (minus Brawl, sadly) and some new images of what look to be early CGI renders. The images are small, but they do give us a good look of some renders of characters we've seen very little CGI of, including Ratchet and Bonecrusher.

See the bios - which seem to be taken more from the G1 Universe instead of the movie - and images here.

They've apparently missed Brawl. Poor boy's really the black sheep of the movie, isn't he?

In my knowledge, this is the only real CG image of Brawl in this recent wave of new clips, images and such

And if you look closely, that's actually just an airbrushed photo of the toy, one of Remy's actually:

I'm wondering if Brawl is one of the final characters to get rendered and that's why we're not seeing a lot of him. He's got to get special consideration if Hasbro decided to make a leader-class figure out of him. It seems to me that the character appearances came in waves: BB, Scorps, Blackout; Prime, Bonecrusher, Starscream; Ironhide, Starscream; Megs, Jazz; eventually Brawl and Ratchet.

One note: I remember Ethan Phillips (Star Trek Voyager's Neelix) signed on to this movie, yet we haven't seen him at all or know what character he's playing. If he's still in it, I'm betting he voices Ratchet...

Aren't these the same bios available on the Lunchables web site? I posted the text and a link to the Lunchables site in the Vector Sigma Database corrections thread yesterday.

They forgot to mention that Bonecrusher hates everything. Also, they said he was "another Constructicon", which doesn't really make sense on the page since they didn't mention someone else as a Constructicon first. There's enough info on the movie available now that they shouldn't be talking about these guys as the G1 characters.

None of that info actually applies to these characters really. Seems like they just made up stuff based on the G1 characters...

They didn't just make it up did they? This is the text from the Lunchables Transformers movie web site. They are an official licensed movie tie in site.

Funny how in these CGI images ratchet is super skinny and ironhide is a fat bastard, yet that's reversed in the toys.

The Bios are not very good and some of the pictures look like they are cut out and pasted, but anyway there was some neat information on the site.
