It could happen, but I like that they listed the alt modes of multiple storylines, like how Cliffjumper has a reference to Alternity, Arcee has a reference to Beast Wars, and Shockwave has a reference to the Marvel comics
References!

I know they list the alt modes, and pretty much all the alt modes the characters had, but It would be cool if they had images of what the alt modes would have been in the movie.

That's bare minimum research with hardly any thought or effort put into it.

Like I said, they pretty much just took the altmodes given in the following articles:Rodimus Knight wrote:I know they list the alt modes, and pretty much all the alt modes the characters had, but It would be cool if they had images of what the alt modes would have been in the movie.

how weird, Arcee has the thinnest hips of all of them and shockwave has the thickest ones, normally it would be reversed

It's better than doing zero research, like with the Bay movies.

Especially when it's missing actual movie alt modes like Shockwave's tank mode from DotM.

*takes deep breath*
Those movies, as bad as most of them are, clearly wouldn't be what they are if there was truly no research done for any of them, otherwise there would no information in any of these reference sections.

There was someone called Trench in TLK?! I watched the film and this is no joke the first time I ever see that bot.

Oooooh my god. They look amazing. I'm so in love with Arcee (sorry pregnant fiance).
Brawn is soooooo cute in the movie. They all look so amazingly cool, I love the style!
I would love to see toys of them. And to see their return in Bumblebee 2.
I would love to see Bumblebee 2. Man I hope they find a good and invested director like Travis Knight for the sequel and the (rumored or anounced) Optimus Prime solo movie.
Just keep doing that, I don't mind if they keep a little Bay designs in them (detailed joints etc.) but continue from Bumblebee onward.
For the Bayhem fans and Bumblebee dislikers. You people have 5 movies, don't be selfish and want the next one to be a Bayformers again. At least break try to break even with 5 decent to good Bumblebee like movies before you Bayform again.
Loving the designs, SO happy they have Optimus Prime from the Bumblebee movie as a toy, can't wait to get him at the coming Comic Con Holland!

There will be no Prime solo film. Prime will be with Bee in the Bee sequel.

*In 2017, not long after the release of ''The Last Knight'', Caterpillar ran a company-wide vote to give a name to the "Excavator Autobot" seen in the movie, with "Trench" being the winner.

Wow,those look nice
Does this bonus bit confirms if Blitzwing body type is the same as the seekers?
You talk like people can't enjoy both the films that came before and this one.

Why would it have to when that's already visually apparent just from looking at them?

Blitzwing is clearly G1 seeker inspired,but since he has an earth mode and we didnt get to see much of the other seekers,thereas a chance that both G1 inspired but still different ways.
All I wanted to know its if they all share the same body-type or not.

Looks like the same body type with different alt-mode bits to me. Same general body part shaping, same arrangement of alt mode bits, and even some of the same details, like the joint things on the side of the abdomen, or the plate on the thigh, or the little inset bit on the wrist.

It does look a little like the special feature render he has a visor instead of two eyes like in the final movie, but I'm willing to bet it's just the low resolution and lighting making it look like that.
