Looks like Devastator could benefit from some Cialis, and a trip to the free clinic should clear up that green stuff nicely...

Other than that, He's awesome. Do it Dev's, go fu... Um, he-he, go devastate things! Yeah, that's the ticket, yeah...






...What are you thinking, I just want to see him standing tall without the glowing effects...

The fallen looks even worst then the toy version of him
Never mind though as I never really cared much for his chareter anyway

But man dev’s... is f**kin badass and can’t wait to see more of him
Will be interesting to see the full toy version of him too

Crap-tastic!

I kind of thought the excavator wasn't the arm. Yippee, I've got the torso

holy crap! i love em! there so great, *sniff sniff*

remember everyone the said devistator was gonna be gorilla like so i doubt he stands much higher or more straight up gorillas have that hunch going on

Looks okay, Still I was expecting The Fallen to be more wider and more intimidating. But I like the evangelion look to him though so I guess thats a good thing.

I didn't expect such an evil Decepticon to be that thin (talkin' about "The Fallen"), but at least he looks evil As for Devestator - WoW, he looks massive! I can't wait to see more detailed pics of him

I'm guessing Devastator having green eyes is the closest we'll get to him having any green on him since the only other green on him is his one leg!

Here's how I see the movie. Starscream will revive the fallen to help his cause to become the Decepticon leader and it will backfire through his own stupidity and ignorence. I bet Devastator is the one who will destroy The Fallen. Due to the fact that he is probably the only one with enough power to battle The Fallen. Seeing as the Autobot line-up is very small so far. Soundwave will bring back Megatron. The fallen will challenge Megatron and Devastator will protect his leader. The Autbots will protect the flesh bags! All draged out over 2 hours and I will enjoy every minute of it!

They are still Transformers, just not YOUR kind of Transformers. They are straying from what Transformers HAVE looked like, not what they SHOULD look like. My oldest son is almost the same age as what I was when I got my first Transformer and I can gauarntee you that my G1 toys and the G1 cartoons (with the exception of the Animated Movie) don't hold his interest the way the new figures and the new movie do. For all intents and purposes Transformers was never meant to draw and hold the fan-base that it has now and from a financial aspect, it's creators can't and wont slow progress for any of us older fans.

You either bend with the wind of change, like a willow tree, or stand fast like an oak and get snapped in half or yanked out at the roots.
Either way, the wind doesn't care and it isn't going to stop!

Hmm, the Fallen's hands don't look like those above Sam on the teaser.

I don't know why, but that Devastator looks cartoonish to me. I'm not saying that as a bad thing, it's just a comment. It looks cool.

And I find the Fallen design interesting, especially all that orange fire glow like Balrog from LOTR. That I must say is awesome .

BTW, seems like the people doing some of the movie designs are Alien fans . (I am too)

Between this and the Fallen, movie and toys are looking very uninteresting to me.

The only thing I am slightly interested in so far is Sideswipe both modes, and only Jetfire's alt...

Everything else is purely just re-designed for some person's ego as monsters, that happen to be robotic, but NOT Transformers.

What movie is this? A Transformers movie? Where are the Transformers?

Ok, I know someone is going to tell me to get over it. I'm sorry that I couldn't be more open-minded to new ideas, but the more I see, the more it seems like a pure representation of Bay's ego. I'm not saying he had to do anything for us the fans or even respect any of the original Transformers concepts/designs that we have gotten so used to since we were kids/teenagers. He's big in Hollywood and can do whatever he wants with his movies. I just wish I could see more resemblance to the old school tfs. Sorry to get off topic, but that alien just looks like another alien to me...

The awesomness of this movie just went up by eleven.

The Fallen totoally looks like an ancient version of a Transformer, and Devastator's look fits the idea of him as a mostly dumb brute (for those Geewuners out there).

This movie is gonna rock.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the Transformers ALIEN robots?

So the Fallen is an Alien-TF hybrid?

I've always loved how "original" Hollywood is.

There is no way I am going to waste 2 hours and $15 on this turkey of a movie. Those designs are hidious and I don't much care for Baysplosions. I'm not excpecting there to be more to it then that.

Actually, Bay has mentioned that there is going to be a lot more character development in this movie.

Of course, that's just in between all the explosions and gunfire.

You can only bend something to a certain point, before it snaps just as well.

If only the internet was around in 1984 when the G1 cartoon first started. Perhaps the posts would have gone something like this...

"Hey, Sunbow, what the hell have you done? You've given all the Autobots blue eyes! That totally goes against the traditional idea of Transformers - as everyone knows, Prime is supposed to have yellow eyes just like the toy!

And what is it with those anthropomorphic character designs, with their human-like proportions?! I've just just checked my latest toy purchases, and sure enough characters such as Ironhide, Ratchet and Brawn are traditionally supposed to have odder, more alien proportions than the human-like designs in your cartoon. And you've even put feet on Jazz! I am absolutely outraged! You have raped my childhood because everyone knows that the toy of Jazz has no feet!

Sunbow, thanks for nothing, you've completely ruined the franchise by veering so far from the Transformers' traditional roots."

I hope Devastor doesn't stay in that position and run around on four legs like a giant-ugly faced mechanical ape thing. Are we sure these are genuine? They seem a whole lot different style than the rendering pics of the first movie. I suppose devi might look good in action, but still...

A few folks have mentioned the Fallen has kind of an "egyptian" feel
to it and the toy was even compared to the "Exodia" Yu-Gi-Oh character (in which the whole game is Egyptian influenced) in terms of minor similarities. Has anyone theorized that the reason the Autobots have to go Egypt is because this bugger has been laying dormant INSIDE one of the Pyramids for thousands of years? Just a thought but Megatron probably wasn't the only one who tore off after the Allspark and it may not have only been the Allsparks energy signature that drew him to Earth. Likewise, the Fallen may have run into the same scenario only he didn't crash in the arctic.
I'm just pulling wild ideas out of the air here. None of us knows, or will know, until opening night (which I doubt will be June 26th).
Am I way off on this theory??

wel considering over the transformers lore not all decpticons had red eyes and not all the autobots had blue. thrust eyes where not red also shockwave which had a yellow eye longarm had red he was an autobot metroplex had red superion yellow eyes and these were g1 bots and the list goes on so color doesn't mean anything.

Yes, of course they are ALIEN robots, and I think you know what I was trying to say.

.
Don't forget, Frenzy has Blue eyes in the 1st movie....


.

the fallen simpley looks awsome I can't wait to see him tear some tfs a new one! Devi's look is unexpected but I like it.

The Fallen looks like an Alien LOTR Balrog love child.

Devastator looks like the usual pile of scrap/parts bayformer.
