On the car with Squeeks I'm not surprised his truck prop was spotted on set during early filming on snapchat.
I know my stuff when it comes to the movies and these trailers I'm not going to say I see a character that's not there.
Speaking of such Stealbane is behind Optimus when he gets punched by the other knight.

He's in the background of the Bumblebee repairs scene, standing next to Sqweeks.Sabrblade wrote:Where?Deadput wrote:as well as Wheelie in the background in one of the scenes.
Also:
Look closely at the 2 places that I circled. Very Shockwave-esque features if you ask me.

Also confirmed that Mohawk dies in that fight (not surprising we only saw his alt mode on set once with Barricade, Onslaught and Hooligan who all have been seen multiple times during filming as well as the fact that those three make it to london)

It's a recycled KSI Boss body-type with Shockwave's head.Deadput wrote:Shockwave bot has human military missiles on his left shoulder as well as a tube on his left arm that only Shockwave has had before its possible that it is Shockwave himself with a human disguise or just a new character who looks a lot like him either way he turns into either a helicoptor or a jet which explains the silver color the guy has that's a lot like military planes in real life.

I mean Megatron needs SOME actual dudes on his team, right? It'd be pretty lame if his 'return' just consisted of him leading a bunch of dumb human drones. Cue him reviving Barricade, Shockwave, Brawl and everyone but Starscream.

Shockwave only had his eye ripped out by Prime and he only lost one side of his torso they can totally bring Shockwave back if they want to heck Barricade is coming back and he was blinded and had his leg blown up.
There are two confirmed plot points from people on set in the movie one is that there is this prison where cons are being held and that there is a junkyard where dead robots are being dumped into despite that some of them are not completly dead which I think Barricade comes from the latter.

Right but there is more then the Shockwave head first of all he has Shockwave's tube on his left arm second he has white human military missiles on his left shoulder and this one is a bit of a stretch but he has silver coloring that is a little darker and different from a KSI boss but looks a lot like the color scheme of a human military fighter jet.
Edit: took a closer look at the screenshot I posted (if you want to see it in a bigger size open the pic in a new tab)
Shockboss has a red stripe on his right shoulder and although a bit obscure his right arm is different from his left which looks like there is a cockpit shaped thing on his right arm.

None of those minor cosmetic additions contradict the fact that it's still the KSI Boss body-type CG model at its core, which is the point I was making.Deadput wrote:Sabrblade wrote:It's a recycled KSI Boss body-type with Shockwave's head.Deadput wrote:Shockwave bot has human military missiles on his left shoulder as well as a tube on his left arm that only Shockwave has had before its possible that it is Shockwave himself with a human disguise or just a new character who looks a lot like him either way he turns into either a helicoptor or a jet which explains the silver color the guy has that's a lot like military planes in real life.

Do you not want this franchise to stay fresh in the minds of kids? Remember, the key point of these films is "Sell more toys"

When these movies stopped being liked and making money sure but until then these movies is what we get so I would settle in for the long haul because we are getting two maybe three more movies at least after this.
Bumblebee movie is coming next year and the year after will be Transformers 6 and there are plans for an Animated Transformers movie on Cybertron code named Transformers one.
People such as me like these movies and will continue to see them regardless.

I never said otherwise I was just continuing the discussion by adding more to the conversation such as stating there are more additional changes.
You know what forums like this are for.

Yep it's either Quintessa or Cogman's head's robot form (Bay stated that Cogman is a headmaster)

Does Squeeks even talk - or is he like a minicon and beeps - as I've yet to her him speak.
I'd not mind if the made a number of slanted Trailers - the one we had before was kinda Optimus Focused.. so I guess they could do a Squeeks or Bee trailer. the one they marketed as a Dinobots one - wasn't especially rich in Dinobots though.
I suppose Bay or one of his cassette Minions had been watching Transformers Prime as that image of Hound and whatshername is rather like Miko and Bulkhead.
Ultimately it doesn't really matter what the Humans do in these Movies as I'm only going to watch it once - if that and just fast-forward past them on any subsequent viewings to me Transformers Movies need humans as much as Matrix Sequels needed Cave dancing / sex scenes.
I must investigate the possibility of a programme that autoskips all the human scenes in Transformers Movies... but then that is what Youtube clips are for.
I'm not really much for Transformers Media anyway - I really mostly like the toys anyhow. The other content is just a novelty item to me.
Posted by Deadput on March 16th, 2017 @ 7:27pm CDT
The whole point of the franchise is Robots that Transform into real vehicles for disguise and Earth is the only place with them Cybertronian modes never really work that well on their own the humans have always and will continue to be an important part of this franchise.
A Cybertron movie would not really stand on it's own I mean most of the time Cybertron has always just been a mass of greys and bronzes with almost no other colors a movie on Cybertron would have to be a cartoon and at that point why not just make a tv show?
That's why there has never been a movie or tv show that exclusively only takes place on Cybertron.

Wow! Unless I'm mistaken (and I could be), I think this might be the first time that a body-type meant for a bunch of generics in a previous movie gets a toy made in the next movie's line, even if as a named non-generic whose identity is separate from the previous generics whose body-type he shares.Autobot N wrote:Looks like the Notwave conundrum may be solved:

That's just because someone is using the base body design just as Onslaught using Long haul's body or Hooligan with Crowbar or Berserker with Crankcase it's not really notable.
Also while not a character in the movies this has happened before with Dirtboss from ROTF being based on the Scrapper drone from the movie game.
Posted by Autobot N on March 16th, 2017 @ 8:08pm CDT
So, assuming that Berserker and Hooligan are the same, and that Mohawk is presumably getting a Legion toy (heard that somewhere), that means that the only in this movie that needs a toy is Onslaught.Sabrblade wrote:Wow!

2 points I really wanted to make. Given Bee is supposed to be the leader now, it would make sense for his voice to be repaired. And why not? Cade fixed a mortally wounded Optimus in his barn, why not Bee's voice in a junkyard!
Also, TIE FIGHTERS

These movies make money, they are not liked. The vast majority of people think these movies are shitty. Making a crapload of money does not make a movie good, nor does it ensure it is a quality story.
So please, let's be real here, these movies are garbage and we all know it.

Contradicting yourself in eight words, that's incredibly well done.
Perhaps a revision? Maybe you meant to say "These movies make money, they are not liked by true fans like myself, anyone who likes these movies are not fans"
Because obviously, if after 4 movies they're still making money, either people like them, or you're wrong.

(Not meant to be aggresive I just wanted to use this pic for awhile)
That is such an bias opinion trying to pass as a fact it's ridiculous if that was even romotely true why do people watch them and buy the blue rays, why do I and many other people happen to like the movie?
The thing is the people who don't like the movies happen to be a vocal minority.
The movies have flaws but which movies do not you want to know what else makes money that has garbage stories yet is liked anyways?
Most of the marvel films to have come out in the last while since their stories always use the same general superhero formula yet those movies have fans.

See we do exist!
The movies are meant to be summer action flicks you the kind that nobody watches for the story and just for the action and cheesy one liners.

Yeah, I'm wondering if they'll keep Mark Ryan as the voice actor or if he'll sound younger.
Those drones definitely don't look like TIE Fighters though, standard TIEs don't have the angled wings.

I thought talking with us gave you joy too.
I personally dont get why anyone would be offended enough by these movies to have to prove to us they are bad. These movies know what they are and by this point so do we. We can either enjoy them for what they are (and personally, as long as they feature the robots a lot I am fine) or avoid them. If people think they are crap, then why keep looking into them. Why be on these boards bitching over and over. Its like going on a board of the fast and the furious franchise and saying "man, cant believe it stars Vin Deisel again, he sucks as an actor". If these films were hated by everyone, then they wouldnt keep making money (like Uwe Boll movies), simple fact. Doesnt mean they are the best, it just means they are well liked by the world and make a lot of people happy. Why anyone would like to rain on anyone's parade is beyond me and a serious waste of time. The small crowd's negative opinion will never stop this film from making another Billion dollars and convincing the studios to make more.
Long live Transformers!
