dont be too quick to judge them by their looks, this im sure will add a lot of personality to them, and in the end, make the movie a hell of a alot more believable...

Nailed it!
So isn't there supposed to be some emphasis on how the Cybertronians in the movieverse are so ALIEN and not human-like. So why do we keep getting ridiculous HUMAN traits like say a bot with a cane and one with large buck teeth (including one that's GOLD for crying out loud). Don't get me wrong, I liked the first movie and think I'll like this one too... As long as there is no Ninja Grandma Bot with sunglasses and a skateboard.

They are Gremlincons no doubt there.

I don't know who designed their heads but please jail that person in a mental institution cause that person is clearly insane.

I don't see how any pro-fuglybrots could love these designs.

Hrm... personally, I prefer the traditional angry-mob-with-torches-and-pitchforks solution to this thing. Don't forget about the ones who actually allowed these faces to see the light of day and cause optical hemorrhages to many, many innocent eyes.

Apart from the different sized eyes and the gold tooth, skids is actually quite cool!
Mudflap on the other hand . . . well the dots speak for themselves.

I dont see why they had to have teeth in the first place, being robots, that don't eat . . . Even if they put them in, WHY MAKE IT GOLD!
As for Skids eyes, why are they different sizes?

Mudflap - apart from the eyes, i cant make out anything else recognisable...

Is the gold tooth visible on the trailer we got with him sayin its upgrade time? - just checked and yes, the tooth is visible!!
Hopefully a decepticon rips it out near the start! Infact, rips out the other tooth, as they are both just not needed!!!

Dear god. Why would artificial robots be hideously Fugly with buck teeth, and asymetrical eyes.
Why did Micky Bay think this was a good idea? Why not more of this?

What the hell was bay thinking? Oh wait he wasnt like usual. What was the idea behind these to epic fails? Im sure this is how the meeting went.


Guy- Lets make two bots like Jar-Jar and make them look like they were run over, sprayed with acid and then fell off the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down just to land in a garbage disposal.
Bay- will they blow **** up?
Guy- sure why not
Bay- lets do it

My theory:

Skids and Mudflap once had regular faces, but were damaged severely in a decepticon attack. But while they were put under, the guy fixin' them got confoozled and put them back together the wrong way.
