So here's another rumor. We know the Decepticons may be adding another of their commanders to the lineup in some fashion, will the Autobots be doing the same?
View the pictures here and make your own guess as to who this might be, or is it just a simple background or human vehicle?
Let the debates begin!

It'd be cruel of them to not make it Prowl.

I would be a very happy camper if it were indeed Prowl...

In my opinion, that car looks horrible. There's no way that could be a transformer....at least I hope not

Seriously, it looks dead-on like the Binaltech toy. Does anyone really believe Michael "LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME! THIS IS MY MOVIE! I TELL OTHERS, EVEN HASBRO HOW ITS GUNNA GO DOWN! I PISS LUCKY DRAW TRANSFORMERS BETTER THAN ANY AND ALL OTHER TRANSFORMERS EVA!! ME! ME! ME!" Bay is going to take a pre-existing Transformers toy and use it in his TF sequel?

Not quite a dead-on look to the Binaltech toy. 4 door vs. 2 door car. Plus those are Chinese letterings instead of Japanese and too much white and not enough black for it be the BT toy.

I gave you credit to start, but the original source was anonymous from TFW. News crew is working on crediting the original sources for the information, although we really appreciate when you throw up stories that are news-- from you as the source or from another site.
I'll get your name in there.

Makes sense for a cop car, dunnit.
Most would never catch that, and depending on the location of the vehicle's use, could be Chinatown, no biggie.Cascadia wrote:Plus those are Chinese letterings instead of Japanese..
Aaaaand? What did you expect? For them to build a life-size replica of a plastic two door police car? I mean come on, "too much white and not enough black"? Again, close enough.Cascadia wrote:..and too much white and not enough black for it be the BT toy.
Regardless, the whole point of the post was..

Man, now I remember why I quit posting on message boards. One single sentence taken far too literally focused on instead of the entire post, the message, the point.
Sheesh.

Because they are making part of a the movie in a chinatown type setting that is being created at this PA steelmill. Whether it is actually in China is anyone's guess, but I think the Chinese characters on the car lean more toward it being an actual Chinese city.

I'm not a "Prowl fanboy" but I really like the allusion to him having foreign markings. Granted, it is highgly possible it is also JUST a police car...

bumblebee was going to be in the first one but he turned out to be a camero and looked how that turned out.

YES, if that idiot Bay was to put a GT-R transformer in TF2 I'd be willing to say in public that I thought he was a skilled film maker.

New York doesn't use Malibus, they use Dodge Chargers.

... and it turned out to be... you know... a crane.
I mean, they are filming in a fictional Chinese city. You'd think with all the giant robots blowing stuff up, the Chinese police might just make an appearance.
Posted by Delicon on June 1st, 2008 @ 1:09pm CDT
I do hope it is Prowl, for no other reason than it would make Cascadia do backflips of joy in the middle of the movie theater.
Someone a page or 2 ago mentioned how they weren't sure if the Bethlehem filming was supposed to be China, but according to the papers here (my store sellls the Allentown newspaper)the filming is done there to make it a "fictional Chinese city"

That was rather hilarious actually...just a couple of months ago I came across a website still running that story as if it was still going on, I wonder why they did not remove it once it was discovered it was just a crane used for the production of the movie

I am helpless with laughter right now about that. But in terms of backflips, there is a slim to no chance of that happening because I can't do them. If it is him, I am cool with it. But like I have mentioned before, it is kind of too early to tell.

Delicon wrote:It would be nice if it was Prowl. Really, if you think about the classic 1984 G1 Autobots you could make a case that Prowl was the most important one of those characters who didn't make the first movie.
You could also make that argument for Wheeljack being super important and left out of the lineup.
I hope it IS prowl though. With him being in TFA it would make sense to have him in the lineup.
