Bugatti looks delicious. Please don't let him/her/it be another case of Mirage.

I'm not a fan of either model, though they do look awesome and if I was offered 1 I wouldn't refuse. For some reason I really like that green on the Corvette. These are supposed to be "new" Autobots, so it probably won't be Sideswipe. And I'll be the only 1 to say that Bugatti is fugly. But, as I said, I wouldn't turn it down if offered.

Here are my guesses:

Bugatti: Smokescreen
Corvette: Springer

the new optimus prime. looks good.

So if every Transformer gets an "upgrade" and is gonna look differently, like Prime here...
Well... *Transformers 4: Beast Hunters.* LoL

Robots in DISGUISE? Some of the most stand out vehicles on the road.

Mind you G1 Mirage was single seater race car so that would have limited his area of operation.

I like what I'm seeing here.

Would be awesome if the new TF4 OP would get a leader class toy of the same caliber as ROTF leader class Optimus. Although looking at the DOTM toys, I'm not too sure.

Hasbro better hurry up and get the licensing from Bugatti...

One thing I didn't quite get was why didn't they just make a Mirage who turned into something similar to a 458, but not exactly (like how ROTF Sideways they made reminiscent of an R8, but not an actual licensed model). Mattel wouldn't be able to say anything surely!

And dayum, im not liking Prime, he looks a little too fat in the front end, and those triple barrelled smoke stacks are evidence of Bay retaining his 'screw G1, this looks badass' attitude. Great.

Bugatti I would like to say Blurr, but could be Mirage or Sideswipe.
Corvette could also be Mirage or Sideswipe, but for some reason I have a feeling that this will be Drift, if that rumour was correct. I could live with a green Drift, is long as the toy comes with a freaking huge sword

Being a big Blurr fan myself. That would be Cool x2 if it turned out to be Blurr.

Definitely not liking the new Prime. Hopefully it's not finished, or it has a badass robot mode.

Prime sucks. When MB said wveryone was getting redesigned I was expecting a truck kinda like the one from TF Prime, but what We got was, well that. I am digging the new Autobots though. I'm guessing Blurr is the Bugatti and the Vette ( Holy Moly a real Corvette and not that wannabe Corvette Sideswipe was) is Springer.




What? He's green!

With all new reveals of Autobot alt modes recently, It is about time we get to see the newish look for the big bot himself. Michael Bay has posted an image of Optimus Prime's new look. He takes on more of a hybrid look between previous movies and Transformers Prime.

Man look at all that chrome, so shiney I can see myself in it
The next question is, will his robot size be larger too

He'd better have a trailer... And it'd better be bitchin...

This one looks more aerodynamic and is probably a better truck technically than the Peterbuilt, but its just too curvy for Optimus. Prime needs to be a brick of a vehicle mode, this truck would better suit Rodimus Prime, if he ever appears in the movieverse.

I hope there's more of these to come, as Bay said a 'convoy' of autobots, and by my books, two cars and a truck doesn't justify a convoy.

It's as if they weren't standing out from the crowd already by being a convoy of shiny concept race cars. The movie Prime is like "Hey cons, I just beheaded your dear leader Megatron and destroyed Cybertron; If you have any problems with that, you won't have a hard time lookin' for me "

Now if only the toy have that amount of chrome, otherwise we'll be seeing cheap grey plastics till the Asian Exclusives show up.

All I can do is laugh!

NO! NO! NO! Anyone but that shite Autobot leader will do.

Not to mention not even halfway through season one, EVERYONE knew about them, so the whole "Robots in Disguise" thing was pointless.

Didn't Michael Bay claim they were headed a different direction?
This looks like more of the same.

The Bugatti could be Bluestreak, if Bay took his name too literally...

Someone on TFW2005 has done a nice PhotoShop job on Prime that improves him a great deal (I can't upload the pic as im on my phone). I think the biggest problem with this truck is the oversized hood bump thing, and the ridiculously out of place car wing mirrors.

Pretty slick. I like it.

Can't wait to see who they are.

I'd like to see Rodimus myself.

New direction? Maybe the main villain won't be a prime like the last 2 films.

needs more flames.

Too much blue.

Uh ohhh I love how this is one of the first things I woke up to today! Great way to start the day.

I agree. I really like the way this looks.

It's very funny because recently I purchased a RTS Optimus and I love the figure.

A couple of days ago I'm just messing around with it and thought to myself "They should really have the next design be G2 inspired"

Which is kind of what it looks like to me. Considering this is the second generation of movies.

I would be very pleased if he looked like this


With the sword too and Optimus will actully hold it, not having his arm transform into a sword.

I never really like the whole hand/arm transformers into weapon thing. But I guess it grew on me due to watching Prime. They are Transformers anyway.
