looked but couldn't find it on seibertron.

the big guy is called Bulkhead. The rest should be obvious. Ratchet is the ambulance, Prowl the bike, Bumblebee the yellow car...

I didn't think it could get any worse....it did. :shock:

I love it. Very dynamic. Can't wait to see the Decepticon designs.

My eyes are seriously bleeding...

Looking forward to seeing the Decepticons, still think this series has potential if it's done right.

'Bulkhead' (how do we even know that's his name) looks alot like Crumplezone...

Who's the motorbike? He looks kinda cool...

While I pretty much despise everything on that poster, Bumblebee looks... strangely cute. O.o;

I'm assuming the black and gold Bike is Prowl, and the big green dude taking up half the poster is Bulkhead. Interesting...

God damn it. Fire truck? Again? Save that smeg for Inferno. Did Ratchet and Armada Red Alert mate? Same for Stunticon Dead End and movie Bumblebee, it seems.

My failure sense is tingling. First the movie and now this... there's no stopping them!

Call me tasteless if you like but I like 'em!

Did anyone else notice that they all have signal lights in their alt mode? SPD EMERGENCY!!??

Before I knew about this image, I saw a list of names in a topic on tfw2005 - I thought Bulkhead was pretty random too. Then about half an hour later, I saw this picture. The name Bulkhead isn't officially confirmed.

aww. i like it. a year of eating humble pie. first pic was rubbish, this has excellent potential, but then i'm a fan of Samurai Jack and Clone Wars and stuff like that. and its pretty G1, everyting considered. c'monn..

Looks like they're keeping the formula from th e new film :-?

Prowl strangely resembles a jazz-like character and bulk head resmembles an Ironhide-like character.

I don't like the desings, too childish imo, but i'll give it a chance :lol:

...

I still wonder how the toys are gonna work :???:

by **jonusjaxon** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 11:23 am

What. The. Hell. Are they serious?

There's no reason for anyone to complain about the movie anymore.

"bulkhead" looks an awful lot like hound to me

by **Klozminded-G1** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 11:26 am

So uh...yea.

Are these robots, or superheroes in robot suits...

I can't help but think this show is going to be aimed at the preschool generation. I mean, look at this stuff... :MAD:

Also, I wonder how long it'll take to rename Bulkhead into Hound?

by **Sentinel Pax** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 11:26 am

Well, I'll have to eat some of my earlier words when we saw that Prime pic. Prime looks way better here, especially his face. I like Prowl and Bumblebee, not too sure about Bulkhead and Ratchet. I really hope that's Bulkhead, because it if turns out to be Hound, I will be really sad. Hound is above such a brutish bot mode. And Ratchet is fat. Really really fat.

I'm just wondering how the toys will turn out. Not looking great, but I still don't want to trash this series till I see some actual animation going on.

by **bairdduvessa** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 11:27 am

arg!

by **Maldroth** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 11:28 am

from the looks of the alt modes the toys will probably look better than the cartoon. Don't know I'll catch an episode and wait to see what the toys will look like.

I'm not impressed and they really could have done better.

Wish they would just sell and market to two demographics, one for younger kids which would love this and then the teen group and have a bit more depth and edge without taking too much artistic lisence and just slapping established characters on radical new designs. If your going to make a new design we've never seen before make it a bot we've never seen before.
