A call went out earlier in May for Asians interested in being a part of the film Transformers 2 http://www.seibertron.com/energonpub/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=39521
An_de found more information related to the Bethlehem shooting that included some possible rumors and set pictures for what it seems is going to become a section of a Chinese city in the upcoming movie.

The blog states:

- The east side of the site is being re-developed so most of the shooting will take place on the west side.
- A new concept car (possible Transformer?) not used in the first movie will be used there
- Two Blackhawk helicopters will be used
- The area will be patrolled by the site security and Bethlehem City Police who will also and close streets for the shoot."

You can read the entire blog here http://transformerslive.blogspot.com/2008/05/bethlehem-steel-pre-production-prep.html, as well as, view the previous blogs and images of the area in its current state of dress.

Need more TF2 news? Stick around here, and Seibertron http://www.seibertron.com/news/index.php?f_cat=4 will be sure to get it to you.

New concept car = Hot Rod? I'm kidding!!!

Mon May 26, 2008 4:34 pm

Can't wait to find out what this new concept car is. Maybe an upgraded version of BB, perhaps? Although, I'd rather it be an all new TF like Hot Rod or Smokescreen. Should be awesome either way.

Don't you think BB is already upgraded enough? Hot Rod could be interesting if done right

Hmm, the pics are convincing, but the whole "new concept car" rumor could intreset me less

, as it seems that more automobile mfg.'s are now trying to advertize their future products after the absolutley OVERWHELMING popularity of the Concept Camaro after BB scans it. Unless it's the new concept Mustang, which has my full attention if it is.

Maybe, but I don't see a concept car going directly into a police role. Heck, I've only seen one mustang cop car as it is in real life.

You saw Barricade in real life?

I've never seen any recent Mustang styled police units either. But hey, who knows. Maybe it's all a lie anyway.

I've not seen any 'Stang cop cars but a couple of the cities in my area have bought Dodge Chargers for their cruisers. Those things look completely wicked with the front winch/cattle-catcher and rollers on top. I love that car to begin with but it makes me wish that I was with the fuzz so I could drive that bad mother.

YEah, if I did not own one of the Mustangs already, i would have bought a Charger.

New concept car, eh? Sweet! I just hope it's a new character, I don't want them to touch the existing TFs, they shouldn't change whatsoever - no upgrades!

And who else thinks that one of those Blackhawks might be a Decepticon? Soundwave maybe? He was supposed to be a helicopter the first time around...

my japanese language sucks but i say its some kind factory makes, or some kind of metal factory company.

it would bug me if the transformers got upgraded bumblebee, optimus, others along with them it remind me alot like pokemon, & digimon if bumblebee , optimus & others keep getting upgrades to there robot modes, & the vehical modes new looks for the robots as each sequel gets released sounds more like an anime show than a transformer show i can understand powerlink, & superlink stuff but upgraded looks for the transformers as each new sequele comes it would be like the robots are evoloing and getting stronger as each sequel gets released.

I wish we knew the color of the concept car. I can make so many assumptions, Hot Rod, prowl, sideswipe, new small decepticon? the list can go on!

Sorry, the finger hit the wrong key. Sometimes they have a mind of their own!

Thanks for the info. I'll get it right next time.

New concept car + New Autobot = Wheelie = DOOMED movie.

No one said wheelie was in this film, and he's probably not gonna be *crosses fingers*. No one said the new concept car was an Autobot either, and they already have one concept car with BB, so it may be decepticon aligned.
