Are you sure that this picture is original and not fan made. Because there are many fan made concepts for the Transformers.

The picture is for business purposes (which they tag the heck out of so if it is shown they can tell where it leaked from). Give it a month or two and it will be on the Web somehow and then I can confirm it for sure.

Honestly, I just don't understand all the vitriol about Megs maybe being this tanker/modified semi. It would certainly give him the opportunity to finally truly go head to head with Optimus. It also could explain the presence of Prime's semi in this movie. If Megs main body is in the semi trailer, then the rear trailer could become a power up mode or extra armor, like what is speculated with Optimus. I think that would rock!

I suddenly had a crazy but plausible-ish idea.
At least in the bayverse anyway.
Bonecrusher back from the dead???

I'm thinking Nemesis Prime, too.

Ah ok, anyhow, the picture, which Megatron did it look like? ROTF or the Movie 1 version?

cool idea that actually could work too considering Frenzy was decapitated by mikaela in the first film and survived so why couldn't Bonecrusher do the same

EDIT: misread, never mind.

That was exactly our reasoning.
(thought this through with a mate)
If he had more of a personality or more screen time at least, they could totallydo the whole back-from-the-dead thing
They could even have it as he is megatron's finest warrior, and now he is totally loyaly as megatron rebuilt him.
or something like that.

Heh, nice thought...Although, in a way, they did that with ROTF (Megs = Vader, Fallen = Sidious)...And to be fair, they couldn't have made it more obvious!

If you are interested I can help cover the trail (assuming that it is just the exif data or watermark). I sent a PM

My 2 guesses would be:
(1) It's Nemesis Prime
~or~
(2) It's a Bay-created transformer made just for the movie...

could it be Air Raid or dropshot

could it be Air Raid or dropshot

I could see it being Scourge but that's about it. I don't understand why everyone thinks it has to be a G1 counterpart that looks just like him. It's the Bayverse.... Personally, I hope it's a completely new character.

I must agree, as far as original Movieverse guys go, they turned out pretty well, we got Blackout and BoneCrusher out of it and they were awesome!

When I saw the obvious similarities between the fuel truck and Sentinel Prime's alt mode in G1 cartoons I was pretty convinced that the truck is not Megatron but Sentinel Prime.

On one forum (either here or TFW) they said that the SUVs are clones. If thats the case then I could see this being Nemesis. A clone of Optimus just like in G1 episode "A Prime Problem", only it would be Nemesis not an exact copy of Optimus. I would hate it if Megatron took on a human form.

Bonecrusher was a constructicon in G1, but you could say he is a completely new character due to him not being a construction vehicle, and not combining with Devastator.

I was just thinking could it be Wreck-Gar cause it looks rusty and beaten up simmilar to what you'd find in a junkyard

If it is Magnus, then the only problem I have with the movieverse vanishes. End of story.

well then atleast he'd be a semi truck I'm not to keen on him being a fire engine

Bonecrusher was in the T1 as a minesweeper
