Lorenzo wrote:- When asked about the challenge of creating Devastator on screen, Lorenzo mentions that Bay had the challenge in the first movie of having 30 foot robots. In the second movie, Bay has the challenge of having a robot almost four times that. Expect Devastator to be 100 to 120 feet tall in the movie.
Lorenzo wrote:- Archer said he couldn't give away the plot point, but there's a reason that Soundwave is designed the way he is for the movie. Hasbro had a more basic toy need. So, the two were blended together.
Lorenzo wrote:- Characters mentioned in the initial wave are "Sideswipe, Sideways, Bulldozer, Voyager and many others". Promise of more off-screen characters.

Lorenzo wrote:The Fallen's origin confirmed:
He is one of the original 13 Transformers. Lorenzo said to think of the 13 as "apostles". The Falen is the one who turns and is the reason Transformers split into Autobots and Decepticons.
-MAJOR CHARACTER INFORMATION SPOILER!The Fallen character is an original member of the race, one of the famed original 13, similar it seems to his Dreamwave comics origin. He is credited with having split the Transformers race into Autobots and Decepticons, as is being hinted at in the new IDW Transformers movie prequel series, [i]Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Defiance. (Resize for information)
-The film's timeline is said to take place approximately one year after the original movie takes place.
-In the film, when Devastator makes his appearance you can expect him to be a whopping 100-120 feet tall.
-The Soundwave and Bumblebee preview toys will be released approximately two weeks before the rest of the line is to be released on May 30th.
-Soundwave's toy design is a combination of his movie design, and Hasbro's need for the toy to be a bit more basic. There is a reason for the way he is designed in the film, but that would be telling, which they are not.
-Pictures of the new ROTF leader class Optimus Prime toy adorn one of the magazine's covers, and is also shown inside along with the NEW Voyager Starscream toy.
-As we have seen, there will be more 'off-screen' characters included in the toy line than for the previous movie.
-A 'big ticket' deluxe sized item is hinted at, but no details are given. TOP SECRET.
-The first wave of characters includes: Sideswipe, Sideways, and more...
-Archer would like to see a Megan Fox Human Alliance set. It's on his famous 'wish list'.
-Robot Heroes will have better articulation
-Gravity bots are for young kids and convert automatically when picked up.
