You know, there is the potential for a live-action Beast Wars film. Just take out the humans please; I see flesh and bones every day. :POPCORN:

This whole movie made me angry. I can see Quintessa.. as far as I can see.. did no wrong. For Cybertron to survive.. their greatest enemy.. Unicron.. the most evil chaotic being in the universe.. MUST be destroyed. Earth.. is Unicron. Earth.. is filled with beings that have done their best to hunt down and kill ALL transformers, the good ones AND the bad ones. Earth is clearly the badguy! And to top it all off.. nothing in the film was really resolved. Every one was all happy and high on victory, ready to go home.. but theres one problem.. this MASSIVE FREAKING PLANET STILL DANGLING ITS NUTS IN YOUR ATMOSPHERE AND SCRAPING OFF ENTIRE CITIES.
ugh.. angry. :-x

Despite me not being a huge fan of the BW aesthetic, that Primal looks awesome.

It's called cliffhanger so that we have something to focus on in Tf6 unless they conveniently misremember what they set up like AOE to TLK.

love the design aside form the helmet just being slapped on there. i know the designs a bit different but its the same thing.

also this is more like optimus kong. this would be the biggest optimus in history. not sure what kind of disguise this would provide.

we have some new concept art for you, from an old name: Josh Nizzi has shared on Instagram a look at his version of World War II Bumblebee, as he appears in promotional material and scenes of Transformers: The Last Knight! Check out the image we mirrored below for your viewing pleasure, and let us know what you think of this design.

Seems to be based on more on AOE Bumblebee's design.

Hasbro/Takara, if you aren't already making a toy of WWII Bee, you better damn well get started.

Funny how his guns look almost identical to SillySpringer's custom Beetle guns

If they made a masterpiece version of this, they could build as many as they want, and there wouldn't be enough.

I talked to Josh on the post on instagram and here are some interesting tidbits.

1 Bumblebee here was going to be a British armored scout like the mk1 but that was changed to whatever the white car in the movie was.

2: Josh designed some of the prison bots (Nitro Zeus and the other decepticons) and in his words

Yes they were based off of bots from other films. I think maybe the idea was seeing how those bots changed after being in prison.

This suggests that perhaps these Decepticons are either the original models (Onslaught being Long haul, Nitro Zeus being Shockwave, etc) or that these guys were from DOTM as the Decepticon reinforcements from the moon.

My head canon is that Onslaught is the same guy as the Garbage truck guy from DOTM it makes sense

Also on a thread on Tfw2005 Josh said he was going to upload WW2 Hot Rod concept art tomorrow he also told me he will eventually show off the Prison Decepticon concept art and there will probably be other stuff too.

Still bummed we haven't got a WWII Bee toy. That art looks sick

Josh Nizzi has been updating his site and his Tf5 section is now open!
http://www.joshnizzi.com/portfolio/transformers5/

All there is right now is the Bumblebee pic and Megatron but Josh said he will upload WW2 Hot Rod tommorow and he told me he will upload the prison Decepticons at some point.

Take a look at his other movies too such as doctor strange

A little while ago we saw some new concept art from Transformers: The Last Knight, coming from artist Josh Nizzi, depicting Bumblebee's design during World War II. Now, after much anticipation, he's posted the WW2 version of Hot Rod, as well! He shared it on his Instagram, saying:

WW2 Hot Rod. This was my favorite version based off a Sherman tank. Base Hot Rod design was done by ILM. #transformersthelastknight #transformers

It's a very cool design, so check it out below!

With the exception of Optimus Prime from the fourth movie, Since we've already seen him, I'd like to see some concept art of the movie Transformers looking more like their original forms.

Oh or maybe the nice concept sports car Hot rod originally turned into with a the cool looking Robot mode, that didn't appear like a large version of C3-PO from the Phantom Menace.

Like I said, we saw them do it with Prime in the previous movie, and that was the last movie toy I've bought. Although I may pick up a couple of headmasters from this movie line, just because I need bodies for the extra heads that came with the mini toys.

Hot Rod has his design made and that's that there's no point in being all "he could of been this" what's done is done.

In my opinion this Hot Rod is still better then that whiny idiot prick from the G1 series.
