Best timing goes to FOX Sports--Michael, Rosie, and Josh with the Wreckers as a backdrop give the command to start engines and the next thng we saw was this trailer. Really surprised that BB is going to have the speed stars stealth force weapons mode with the huge mechtech cannon on the roof. Who would have thought that toy was actually a DOTM spoiler? Now I have to buy that vehicle. I want Wreckers and voyager OP too really bad now! Wonder if the thing with all the tenticles is Soundwave?

The rookie won. Who knew?

We got to keep in mind that Megatron's new ID is probably supposed to be a secret.

Yeah I guess it probably is supposed to be secret, but you would think whoever is in charge of deciding on which transformers get shown would have figured out that everyone already knows who Megatron is and what his alt mode is. The same thing happened the last movie. I really don't see the point of hiding him , because I assume he is a secondary villian this time around anyways. They could at least give us some concept images

I had a feeling he'd win since the start. What a neat race.

Anyway, as I suspected there was a new trailer! We got to see the Wreckers in action finally. And was that a Bumblebee armed vehicle mode I saw?

It's also too bad that Leadfoot was the only Wrecker to finish on the lead lap.

No, Leadfoot's the #42 Target Chevrolet that Juan Montoya drives. Truex drives the #56 Napa Toyota.

Ah. My mistake.

I like the idea of Mechtech, especially now that we get to see it on Bumblebee. Seems like a nice idea...

... But it doesn't work in the toys. (Hope you're not mad I finished your sentence. I just hate sentence fragments! )
Don't get me wrong though, it is good on screen, just not in toys. Guess the blend of speed stars makes it.

i personaly think that the mechtech concept is ridicolous. I mean,you make one shot with a giant gun and puff, the enemy is dead. where's the fun in that? I think it looks awful in both movie and on toys. One down for you bay, again...

All I want to see is Sentinel in action..... When are we going to see him Bay???? The Leader Class Sentinel is my first toy from the DOTM line.

Aw, you gotta be kidding me. The Mechtech's actually in the film? Crap. My OCD is gonna go nuts.

I'll end up buying the stupid figures now. >_<

ah well that sucks mask, & twisted metal brought to big screen with an addition giant robots all this time thought hasbro bad idea by adding mech tech to toys to make them look differnt from previous films now only person we have to blame is bay. who knew this would be true in film

Why do you automatically blame Bay? Why is he always the villain?

Seriously. Do none of you people read the cast and crew listing available in every film and on every poster? It's not Bay alone.

There are several people to be held accountable for good and bad in these films. Not just him.

Well, a DOTM trailer that actually has me a bit interested in the movie. Rosie what's-her-face is still absolutely freakin' hideous, but everything else looks decent. I do like the line at the beginning, hopefully this is the tone of the whole movie, and not the last 20 minutes. And I like the whole Mech Tech/Speed Stars gimmick being used in the movie. The toy line gimmick makes sense now.

That was awesome!And starscream!

Wow...Bee's got a BFG! Prime's got a BFG! The Wreckers have BFGs! BFGs all around! I LOVE BFGs! I tell you what though, I love that opening shot of the remains of downtown Chicago...it's nice to recognize all the buildings. New York and LA are destroyed so often, it's nice to see a local city- someplace I'm intimately familiar with- in a movie and actually recognize things.

I am seriously getting hyped up for this movie...I can't wait for it!

Anyone know when we are getting a full trailer yet?

I don't get it. Why do we need to blame anyone at all? Because they did something? I get it, if you blame someone for breaking something, but to blame someone for using something in a movie? Then why not just blame all the film directors for using something in their films.
I.E. James Cameron for using dolphins in "Titanic" or Spielberg for using Dinosaurs in "Jurassic park".

You can't blame everyone in everything. If there's something that you don't like in the movie, then either ignore it or don't watch the film. It's that simple and it's even easier than posting your damn whining on this forum.

THIS. It's a movie to advertise toys, they're supposed to put gimmicks into the movies to make people buy the toys, why the hell else do you think the title of the movie is Transformers? They make the movies to advertise the toys, NOT the other way around.

Either way, they made the movies to advertise the toys, so they put Mechtech in the movies so that kids will want to buy the toys for that reason.

Somethings bugging me now. Optimus's armor looks like Jetfire not trailer? Come to think of it so does the Cyberverse's jetpack. Does that mean Optimus kept Jetfire's corpse or what?

It is possible that they collected the parts and rebuilt them, givin 'em also some new extras and found a way to make it more compact.

This.

But seriously, if you look at the parts the jet turbines are wrong for it to be Jetfire. Also one of the jet turbines was destroyed in the fight with the Fallen.
