True I would also like to see Prowl , Hound , Sunstreaker , Cliffjumper trying to battle a resurected Devastator and Omega Supreme saving them and I still reckon Jazz should be resurected by sector 7

Stunticons....
Prime's Trailer....
Send-Autobots-Home storyline....
New Ferrari....
Man this jusst keeps getting better!

Here is the current holders;
*Mirage
*Hot Shot
*Smokescreen
Now, the final guesser is....
*REFLECTOR
"WHAT???" You might ask? Well, think of it; the NASCARs are of similar colors of the three components of Reflector, toy-wise speaking, so it's very possible that these cars are Reflector. Who knows, their robot modes might even look G1-esque.

Prowl fighting Barricade, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Jazz Hound and Cliffjumper make a stand against Devastator. Awesome.

As for the Stunticons - I hope they name 'em either Drag Strip, Dead End, Breakdown, or Wildrider (sorry, Motormaster is still a truck in my mind).
Posted by Joshua Vallse on July 12th, 2010 @ 8:32pm CDT
The Nascar Death Race cars are fun. My faves are #42 and 88, I wonder if their respective drivers will make cameos via their holographic selves. I'm glad they gave them these half way battle ready transformation modes and that Bay has got over his phobia of "Doing more Car chase scenes."
What I would luv to see is a Formula 1 car Decepticon, that would just be so much fun. Especially if these are the "Stunticons".

P.S. My favorite picture is the random arm at the end, I'm assuming thats Bay's arm? LOL

Is Barricade not dead ?

Glad these aren't true to the Stunticons, so we can have these, rename them, and them custom make movie style combining actual Stunticons!
I really like where the movie's going, machine gun cars are pretty awesome.
Posted by sushilove on July 13th, 2010 @ 2:36am CDT
The Ferrari is just amazing. Can't wait to see him in robot mode... who could it be?
The Nascar cars... amazing. I really like them. I don't know why people say they are autobots... they have the evil look of a decepticon LOL
I'm very intrigued about the mercedes... it's a transformer too or what? maybe it's just a human vehicle. What bothers me the most is the Germany plate... Maybe it is an autobot who landed in germany and scanned a car there and then, somehow, reunited with the rest of the autobots

The trailer looks kinda bland tho, it's just a box, in that way, it's TOO G1 if there ever was such a thing
What am I expecting tho? Power Master Optimus Prime with like, the Godmaster extended trailer? Well maybe I am! It's over the top, just what the Bay movies demand, maybe the trailer transforms into something elaborate? If so, it'll certainly transform ELABORATELY!
Great photos for night-time! Thanks!
Wut? Modern box trailer = G1?
I'm pretty sure most trailers look like that (to state the obvious) aside it's shininess. And Michael Bay seems to be convinced that his movies are still "realistic" so I doubt he'd be doing anything outrageous, as much as it would suit the rest of the movie.
And it's just a trailer. Heck we just saw prime rolling out without it just now. So chances are, it's been tipped over and Prime left it behind, or it got blown up. Either way, it's not going to have any greater role than carrying stuff around.

I'll second this idea for the next film! If they could bring back Scorponok for a few seconds in movie 2, why not bring back Barricade in movie 3 and give him an awesome fight scene? He deserves one!

I've wondered the same thing unless Ford doesn't want it to be featured in a movie with a bunch of GM products? There has to be some reason why he wasn't in the last movie and that no one has seen night or day of him here in Chicago with the other cars.

If you notice under the number 98...it has NEST printed on it! Could this be the NEST moving headquarters...or better yet (and this is where I started "geeking out") Ultra Magnus!!! That would be so AWESOME!!!!!!!! Or maybe it's just another one of Michael Bay's cruel jokes on us fanboys!
Here are a couple of new videos froneyzone provided us with:
1) Bumblebee on the move!
2) Shia makes his way to his trailer
Check out this Chicago Tribune article that interviews Ryan Froneyberger and even plugs Seibertron.com!

On a sidenote, has anyone seen jolt on location? i hope they dont exclude him from the film, with all these characters that they won't be bringing back i hope they have explanations for it rather then just not mention them (chromia, jolt?, wheelie, skids/mudflap) i know we saw pictures of what's believed to be new alt modes for the twins and nothing else since so they might be in a scene or two and thats it, but i can see them not even being mentioned, would be simple, could say that NEST sent all them on a mission elsewhere, or that the main autobots in this one have been specially selected for the missions in hand, or just simply say they all went back to help on cybertron! That's the main problem i have with these michael bay films, the plot holes and when characters simply dissapear never to be seen again (i'm looking at you barricade and wheelie) but i'm happy as long as there's big robot fights

Well, in the comic adaptation from the 1° movie, Prime killed Barricade.

Maybe the old chicken farmer is supplying some cars for the movie.
