I think Optimus should get a completly new body in fourth movie. After all, even when he's role in moviue changed from nerd-ic underdog of Megatron to the greatest threat to Decepticon cause. But he stil lhave body of a scientis, not w warrior. Even ifit is obvious that he is upregaded by human enginers.

i really doubt that black and silver flat nose would be scourge or nemesis prime.. i couldn't see them giving nemesis prime a smaller robot mode than the actual prime.. it just wouldn't make sense, even with bay. the whole point of making prime a long nose was to give him a larger more intimidating truck mode presence, and a larger robot mode.

I'm especially excited/worried about Optimus Prime as DotM Prime was utter crap.

i feel bad for you. you're missing out on some great toys. i wouldn't be able to collect strictly movie toys. that's just crazy.

i don't know how the toys are going to turn out. i believe we're going to get ALOT of rotf sideways type alt modes. very generic cars that bare a vague resemblance to what we actually see in the movies.

judging by the past movies.. i wouldn't expect to see every character in toy form starting from deluxe to leader. rotf had a few robots that we never got toys of. in dotm we didn't get a deluxe or human alliance dino. hasbro never released deluxe que, we never saw deluxe soundwave or human alliance soundwave (both of whom i really wanted) there were quite a few more robots in the movie that weren't made into toys. .. and what really pisses me off is that they made new molds for other characters that weren't in the movie, it just makes absolutely no sense to me.

and lastly, i'm most worried about the line because of what we've seen with the beast hunters deluxe figures. they're just larger versions of the cyberverse toys. hasbro seems to want to make things more simplistic for kids.

so.. imagine a movie line with bay designs (which i happen to really like) and super simplistic transformations, and a complete lack of modern articulation.. that, sadly, is what i am envisioning for this next movie line. i'm pray for that not to be the case. but hasbro wants more money, no matter the cost.

guess we'll see.

i think it's time to start proof reading your posts. my mom suck at text messaging sometimes, but i can usually decipher what she's trying to say... but this.. i'm not sure what the point is that you are trying to make.

English is not everyone's first language. If nothing else, we are to show tolerance toward our fellow posters, if we can't muster even a small amount of respect. So, go easy. I'm not asking, I'm telling.

Now, as for what he was saying, it's this:

After all, his role in the movies changed from weakling underdog of Megatron to greatest threat to the Decepticon cause. But he still has the body of a scientist, not a warrior. Even if it is obvious that he has been upgraded by human engineers.

And TurboMMaster, I see what you're saying, but I hope it's not too drastic of a redesign. The ROTF and DOTM designs were really nice and intricate.

I have found a couple of new vehicles that have been rented off YouTube user 'Mendenhall512'.

He said the following:

Sorry to cause any confusion, the video was taken on the 1st of June and then uploaded a month later. The GTO's are to appear in the beginning Texas scenes with Mark working under the hood of the 69 one night when a satellite crashes nearby his farm causing a special Rally car of his to come to life... can't spoil too much.

I assume he is talking about 'Cliffjumper' or who ever is the Cheverolet Sonic.

Here is the video:

I'm sorry for the confusion but what I meant was that the movie toys are the one thing I'm looking forward to these films. I still collect the occasional Generations and Prime lines.

But the movie,I probably won't see it in theaters.

I understand in cases like Soundwave or Que, however in a lot of cases, the figures they design are Altmodes that did appear. Incinerator for example, the Osprey were part of the human drops. Landmine (Movie1) Stratosphere, the Legion figs are a different ballpark though

It looks as though Bumblebee will be sporting more than one Camaro alt mode in "Transformers 4" just like he did in the first live action Transformers film. Back in May Michael Bay announced that the customized vintage 1967 Camaro SS that had been seen on set was indeed Bumblebee, today the Camaro enthusiast website Camaro5.com posted new images of a customized 6th Generation Camaro on set with the other Autobot cars. More images can be found by clicking here.

While the Camaros in the first 3 Transformers movies were essentially production version Camaros with some unique aero parts added, the Transformers 4 Camaro will feature special bodywork – especially the front end. The entire front end is custom – from the futuristic looking LED headlights to the grille, to the front spoiler lip. The rear fenders feature an air vent and aggressive lower door character line and side skirts. The rear features vents on the hind quarters and a sporty diffuser, as well as a high spoiler.

I believe that's the Corvette Stingray, thought to be the upgraded form of Sideswipe. :-?

I'm impressed with the vehicle mode whatsoever, but why must we get Bee in his different looks??? The answer is very simple: Hasbro thinks he will sell, no matter his appearance, when he will actually (and ironically) shelfwarm! HA!!! :lol:

I'll just stick with the black and yellow Camaro for this guy, but I'm very hungey to see the new designs for him, the Autobots, and the unnamed Transformers we have yet to see!!! :-(

Looks boring. Other than the headlights, its pretty bland and overly round in the front. Guess they're done trying to implement the old'school look, and just caving into making it look like every other rounded, generic car on the road.

mice looking car but im so sick of yellow camaros & im even more sick of bumblebee. I never though id say this but i miss G1 bumblebee.

Michael Bay's official website has now confirmed the modern Camaro revealed earlier today is in fact Bumblebee. So there you have it, Bumblebee has been officially confirmed as both a custom 1967 Camaro SS and a 2014 Concept Camaro for "Transformers 4". Judging by the caption that accompanies the image this may be the last reveal.

Check it out below.

I don't think the car is ugly just the color, black would look very nice.

Not much on cars, but that honestly doesn't look that great to me. I much prefer the other renditions, this doesn't look very special at all. Of course, I think it makes for a better disguise.

As a fan of the camaro....

This thing looks terrible. I get wanting to change up the look, but nothing about this front end says "Camaro" to me.

However, based on this i'm more convinced that the old rusted out flat nosed truck is Prime fron the past, and the 67 camaro is also Bee from the past.
