I still doubt that even Michael Bay would include a Pretender.
It just seems too convenient.
Was Bay on the couch, watching "Sarah Connor Chronicles" one day, and he suddenly decided "Hell yeah! Let's thrown a Terminator in the movie!"?
I'm still not buying it.

But even if it is true, I'll accept it *as long as "Alice" isn't Soundwave.*

With Bay, that wouldn't surprise me at all. And, honestly, it wouldn't bother me. I think it would be a creative way to include Pretenders in the movie-verse. Besides, who doesn't want a legitimate reason to have a scantily clad woman on their display shelf amidst the TFs? (oh, please let her figure be scantily clad!)

I'm all for the scantily clad females and all that, but remember the last line of Movie figures?
Remember Bayverse Arcee, with her hunchback and wings?
Do you *really* think they'd get a Pretender figure right?

That said, allow me to clarify that I'm not totally against the idea of Pretenders in the movies.
I just think that Movie #2 is too soon, especially if they're introducing big-name concepts like The Fallen and Unicron.
Doubly so due to the presence of Sarah Connor Chronicles on TV.
Michael Bay would come off looking like a plagiaristic hack.

Honestly, wouldn't it make more sense to wait until Movie 3 or 4 before introducing Pretenders?

But that's just me.
What do I know?

...or, alternativly, we could all just actually go and watch the movie first, and THEN decide if it's rubbish or not!

Well, that's how I do things, anyway. I'm reserving judgment until I see the darn thing.

This is awesome!
I love the way they're made in Masterforce and I like it a lot more that they're smal robots in this one.
Here's hoping for monster pretenders.

That thing looks like the love-child of Frenzy and a Predator.

And if it is true, it will be interesting. It looks like this movie will be drawing upon a wider spectrum of TF lore.

From all things dark and cruel,
Now we are defenseless
In a land where dragons rule!
