Barricade(s) Spotted On Flatbed Truck: Shooting For New Movie Begins!?! (Rumor)

Sweeeeet! Gotta love Barricade, he's the best new character in a long time!

I'm super happy that (it looks like) he's coming back! And if they are already in preparation for shooting, we might see other spy photos soon.

Freaking cool!!!

I'll bet it was just Bay driving around to spread his seeds of 'fake rumour'.

Seriously though, sweet new that he's keeping his old alt-mode if this is for the movie.

Maybe it's for a flashback explaining why he never made it to the city to help the D-cons try to retrieve the Allspark.

Meh, only the local police got better peacekeepers.

I need closure on the Barricade plot line.

huh?

Cool!

I remember when they were casting voice actors. Keith David was originally announced to be Barricade's voice. Anyone know what happend with that?

I think that these Saleen "Barricade" Mustangs has nothing to do with the new Transformers 2 movie but these Saleen "Barricade" Mustangs cars are being transported for safety concerns to fans who had their Saleen Mustangs custom made to look like Barricade.

I would have thought that most of the Transformers from the first film would be replaced in the 2nd otherwise the new toy count would be low. Unless there are going to be LOTS of characters this time round

These pics clearly show the transformer markings the saleens that are replicas do not have such markings, they say "saleen" instead of "police" and do not have the decepticon logo in the police shield.

I am not sure I find that very likely, as replica police vehicles tend to be shunned. But I suppose it is possible?

Which is one of the reasons I developed my theory on this being used for a scene to show what did, or will befall Barricade. Probably a transition into the new movie...something familiar to link us to the beginning of something new?

But then again, I think to myself, why would they bother? If it were important enough, they would have included that in the first movie.

I guess he must be coming back to take part. Maybe he'll change forms though.

Nice. This is an awesome find. Im loving all the speculation it brings up with all the possibilities that come with it. I loved Barricade and hope he makes it to the second film in any capacity.

Im gonna probably get some flak for this but how does anyone know this is for TF2? it couldve been a picture captured before TF1?
dont get me wrong I wanna know what happen to Barricade but does anyone have any credible proof?

Hopefully Prowl comes too so we can get some cop on cop action

And they apparently can't find/use an enclosed trailer, or at least a cloth car cover?

Huh. Interesting.

They didn't when they made the first movie either.

As far as when it was taken, I thought it showed on the site that it was taken Yesterday...

I hope this isn't one of those fake rumors and that Barricade really is in TF2, after all Orci and Kurtzman said his dissaperance in the 1st movie is a "thread for Movie 2." He's also my favorite Decepticon from the movie.

That would be one of the best fight sequences in TF2 for sure.

What, them tie up a loose end from the first movie? Unlikely. But at least it disproves (kinda) some of those theories about what happened to him in the final fight

It was for the game and not the movie.

I've worded it wrong but I'm trying to say is that I don't think these Saleem "Barricade" mustangs are for Transformers 2. I think some fans had their Mustangs custom made to look exactly like Barricade from the movie. There was a guy in Las Vegas that had his Saleen Mustang to look like Barricade from the movie for his young son.

There are at least 4 of them on the flatbed, I doubt there would be 4 peolple in culver city that would do it. Also the vegas guy just had a regular mustang modded, not a saleen.

sounds like "Baricade" could be back. this might be proof that they are keeping the old alt modes for the sequel. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Bumblebee's alt mode is due out to the public in 2009, which means that at least Bumblebee is sure to have the same mode.

I think that we all want him back.
YAY!!

all i gotta say is : I TOLD YA SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For some reason I remember reading (I think on the toy package, but help me out here.) that Barricade has more of a loyalty to Starscream than to Megatron. Perhaps the explaination as to where he was during the end fight will tie in to that?

...anyone remember reading something similar about Barricade also?

I guess Barricade chickened out once he saw Prime make short-work of Bonecrusher (quite literally). He didn't beat Bumblebee so he knew he didn't stand a chance against Prime. Barricade is going to have to explain his absence in the final abttle, to the Decepticon leadership. I doubt it will go down well.

I wonder if Barricade will get a new partner with Frenzy dead.

I don't know about loyalty to Starscream. My guess is Barricade is mroe a lemming and follows whoever is in charge. Frenzy seemed quite loyal to Megatron, otherwise he wouldn't have bothered to unfreeze him.

Hell yeah Barricade is Back! (I hope)

Barricade returns!!!!!! Hell yeh. If this is true and it has secretly began filming then i think we are going to have a few surprises in store for us.

Yay! Barricade is alive! *Victory dance*

In my professional opinion, this rumor is false! Obviously this is merely the case of a repaint specialist going too far D:

I bet he just drives around with his repainted cars just waiting for people like us to take pictures too ;_;

I'm glad to see that Barricade will be back. He was one of the best Decepticons in the first movie and I was disappointed when he just up and vanished at the end. I was looking forward to more action scenes with him. Now, we will hopefully get exactly that!

And I'm also hoping he'll have a showdown with Prowl. That would be awesome!

That's a possibility. But I do have just about every spy photo and set pic ever leaked online from the first movie, and these were not among them. So unless someone took these photos from the set of the first film and decided to hang onto them for a few years instead of leaking them online right away - when everyone was dying for set pics of the FIRST TF movie, this is probably a new photo.

I mean really, if I had taken these photos the first time around, I wouldn't have waited to post them online, especially since at the time nobody knew if Barricad would live through the first film.

I hate to break it to everyone but most likely these are just the cars from the first movie. They are not some custom paint jobs or most likely not Barricades being prepped for tf2


If you look at the bottom of the rear wheel whell where it say 643 you will see some body damage. But the car is completely clean. If this was new filming the car would most likely not be that spotless while having that damage.


They are probably just being moved out of storage.

Take a closer look at that "damage" and then look at the bottom middle of the platform the car is on.

That "body damage" is a chain to secure the car, so it doesn't roll off the platform and make a big mess in the middle of the road.

I hope this is something different. I wouldn't mind Barricade in TF2 what so ever, but if its the same alt then it's probably the same figure, and I wasn't to happy with it.

Yeah, Barricade like totally disappeared in the movie, I didn't see him at all in the rest of the movie until the highway seen with Bonecrusher and Optimus. I'm pretty sure Barricade is still in the plot.

We will see what happens. Part of me is saying it is true and other part of me saying that it is fake, so we'll see

The only car I didn't get a pic of at the TF LA premiere. Drats! I went through Culver City tonight too - why couldn't I see him? Argggghhh!!!!

So... Barricade's in TF2?

Man, TF2 is really coming faster than I thought.

I hate to break the "news" to you guys,but Barricade was confirmed dead a long time ago.

I'd like to see your credible source on this. We don't know if this means yes, or no, but I'd still like to see where Bay said, "Barricade's dead, and not coming back!"

Plus, when sequels get written things happen. Optimus Prime was dead after all, and he wasn't supposed to come back in the cartoon anymore either.

I´d say the script of the movie counts as a pretty accurate source.

where does the script say Barricade is dead??
