Unicron may be to big of a project to do cause of his immense size and shape it was a major project with Devestator and he was just a 100 tall combiner imagine how time consuming Unicron will be.
Also Bludgeon is a master Martial Artists so it would make since to use Parks for that Role.
I am also curious about who Tony Todd will be playing I say he will likely be a villian again unknown who be cool if he was Thundercracker or Cyclonus he could even do Scourge or be the voice for Galvatron if he gets upgraded to Galvatron.
The more I see on TF 3 the more I get the feeling Unicron isnt going to be in the movie.

Please let there be a Trans Am in TF3.
That picture is a concepte Trans Am.
Trans Am is my favorite car and it would be the perfect HotRod!! With the phoenix on the hood/chest. I've been saying this for years!!
Oh man, a Trans Am as one of the lead characters.

I think the voice of Darth Maul (Peter Serafinowicz) would be better for a transformer, but still *Runs around floor whooping!*

Seriously isn't X-men Toad his only big speaking role? Wasn't it a bit, well, pants?
Major role in TF3?
Please not as a Voice actor. As motion capture for Bludgeon that would rock mightly but please not as a Voice actor.
If the firebreather camero isn't Hot Rod/Rodimus then it'd better be Tracks.

I don't know what the deal with this car is suppose to be, but Trans Am was a Pontiac and that nameplate is dead. Since they're both GM maybe they're resurrecting some Pontiac names, but it's overpriced for what's really just a Camaro with a fender kit. For $60,000 you could buy a real Trans Am and have it custom built with over 1000 horse power.
If they use it perhaps it would be Cliffjumper.

Ray Park has had no speaking roles in any of the movies in which he participated. From what I understand his voice not good. They aren't going to put him in a movie as a voice. I can only imagine that they would use him as a motion capture guy.
So Chevy is making a Firebird edition of the Camaro? Interesting. I like it! I might have to consider trading in my 2000 TA for a new one.
I would like to see Hot Rod show up in the movie. But I don't think they would use a repaint of Bumblebee as Hot Rod.

As for who Park will play in TF3, being just a voice actor seems unlikely. Hearing him in the video, his voice isn't that bad these days -- it's just not outstanding and he's an actor that loves to do stunts. To leap into voice work would seem like a dull sidestep for an action actor working towards starring roles.
I'm guessing he'll be some kind of human or pretender. The GI Joe angle might be interesting, but I think there's lots of room for both franchises to stand on their own for at least one more sequel. (Besides, the NEST troops are already pretty cool and I don't think they need that kind of support.)
