With all the new alt mode vehicles being revealed, we get a look at something more familiar. Instagram user becker1241 has uploaded an interesting image of Wrecker Leadfoot on location of Transformers 4. Will we also be seeing Roadbuster and Topspin? He also uploaded a new image of Bumblebee in his new look. His images are mirrored below.

What a coincidence... HA Leadfoot was also recently seen at my local Target gathering an obscene amount of dust. Something tells me he's about to have a whole lot of company.

Either the Wreckers are making their return, or someone who happens to live right at the set of Transformers 4 got really lucky on eBay.

Maybe now we'll get that deluxe class Leadfoot reissued into TF4's toyline for completions sake.

Armored car pulls up into neighborhood with guns and all.

So much for disguise.

Hell yeah. My favorite part of TF3, the Wreckers. Hope the three of them are there, that would be awesome.

great news, hopefully roadbuster will be in tf4 and we get powerup version of him in deluxe size

In case you've forgotten the past 2 movies, where the Fallen gave them away in ROTF, and the massive city destruction in DOTM, the whole Robots in Disguise thing is about as useless as it was in the G1 cartoon. Everyone knows about them.

it doesnt matter if the entire world knows about them they still need to blend in. Autobots dont want to stick out cause then Decepticons will shoot at them all the time thus endangering humans. Lets say leadfoot there is patrolling a neighborhood, blitzwing & skywarp are flying around & they see a race car decked out in heavy weapons, what do you think happens next? Massive firefight & plenty of dead humans & blown up buildings. Easily avoidable if leadfoot was a dodge charger or a pickup. Decepticons want to blend in so that the autobots wont know when or where they will strike from. Bumblebee is driving along he sees a tank sitting in an alley do you really think hes just going to keep driving? This very basic concept has been lost on you, Bay & hasbro.

I don't think Wreckers could save this movi from ruination. However I always liked them, consider Wreckers as one of the best parts of the DotM. Also I'm glad that they don't dissapered without word of explenation.

bringing back the fat transformer? brilliant....

Okay, maybe you're not fooling anyone since the cons already have technology to locate who they're after.

But in the real world, where there are many anti-gun people living in a neighborhood.

And a car just pulls up armed to the teeth with weapons. It's probably gonna attract more attention than needed.

But hey, it's a Bay film.

Meh, I didn't really care for the wreckers, at least not this guy with his beer gut. I'd rather have TF Prime Wheeljack as a wrecker than these characters.

Haha. I see what you did there. Ruination.

Well Bumblebee, Dino, and Sideswipe all had vehicle mode weapons, so who is to say he can't retract them.

A few things are wrong with your logic..

1.- We have no clue what Leadfoot's role is in this movie. IN DOTM, the wreakers were never let off the base, so they had no need to really be in "disguise".

2.- This is a movie. I'm sure that mini vans and family sedans would make better disguises, but the truth of the matter is no one wants to see them as TF.

3.- The concept has been lost on Bay and Hasbro? Seriously? Exotic and ridiculous alt modes have been going on since G1. Red tank? Red A-10 warthog? Porsche 359?.. F1 race cars cruising the streets? Ya, those were real undercover.

4.- This is a movie

5.- I want cool alt modes as toys. Not average cars I can see everyday. ( I know this is subjective, but in most cases a modified or "rare" car is going to be more welcomed that a Honda Civic hybrid)

6.- This is a movie- Flash sells.
