I mean, Drift's design always looked like it couldn't possibly transform anyways, but this is just ridiculous.

The car kibble gets flipped inside out. The last toy did it with the shoulder pads by folding the sides to reveal the inside.

Hips aside, the Deluxe AoE toy was pretty fantastic, and it was both faithful to the alt-mode and the animation model. Lots of armor in bot mode, and a great looking car.

yeah and plus they were able to keep his bugatti symbol on his robot mode chest from his alt mode while still giving him totally new robot detail for his chest. That was some slick engineering there which was not found on lockdown (who end up with a fake chest).

Eh, that's too big of a cheat for my tastes.

Its very efficient though, and minimises kibble in either mode while providing different detail for either mode. I think its pretty cool, like how they did it with AOE Voyager Hound. Takara was super proud of that new design technique.

That is the single most asinine comment in this entire thread. And that's hard to do, considering some of the arguments that go on in here. But thank you for reminding me where your head actually is when it comes to Bayverse. I started to think you may be able to have a reasonable conversation with other people. My bad.

Did I miss something, I dont see what doesnt make sense about that comment. The 80s TF movie was super popular amongst kids (its the reason many of us are here on the boards, I am sure) while the Marvel TF comics were not read as much. They were also primarily in the UK right? And the series proved unpopular by the end that the runs were very limited to the point where the most expensive Marvel TF issues are the last ones and not he earliest ones.

So yeah, I am pretty sure that many hot rod fans out there who were hoping to see him in the movies had not read the Marvel UK comics.

Michael Bay will frel it all up anyway.
When is he going to go away?

Thing is he tried to leave after DOTM. Hasbro keeps bringing him back.

I think its more Paramount.

That's a very hard balance. In any case I assumed they were gonna go all Bumblebee on him and not give him an actual voice; having a similar relationship with the kid as TFP Bee and Raf.

If they do that they better give Bee his voice back or make him use the radio a whole lot more like in AOE because we don't need two quiet Transformers especially if the Dinobots return with no voices.

Eh, it's not like the Transformers do a whole lot of talking in the movies anyway.

Sqweeks is a....it's a.... adorable but ugly all at the same time.

Woaaaah, dude... chill

mmmm...no. Sly's bitterness towards those who would speak ill of the movies IS adorable, even though the venom he spews IS ugly.

C'mon, man... I thought personal attacks weren't allowed; and unless he's kicked any puppies recently it's a bit unwarranted

Personal attacks? Did you not see the smilie? ( ) I was joking. Sly knows not to take the stuff I say seriously.

Sqweeks can't be a new Bayformer, because I can see all of its vehicles parts in robot mode lol.

What kinda of stupid statement is that?


Most of the designs revealed thus far have vehicle kibble and AOE Transformers did have kibble as well but it was more hidden for example Optimus has visable door handles on his chest.
