The official website of the War For Cybertron video game has been updated. The character page now has two additional Transformers, one Autobot and one Decepticon. They are Air Raid and Breakdown. Air Raid takes after his Generation One self, and has a similar color scheme. Breakdown also takes after his Generation One self, however his alternate mode is no longer a sleek Lamborghini, instead a vicious racer similar to Animated Lockdown. Check each character's description here, or in the images below!

Man, I'm really liking these character designs! I hope they make figures for them, especially Air Raid!

Well, pfft... if Air Raid himself looks that much like Silverbolt, now I'm dying to see what Silverbolt looks like. XD

And yeah, chalk me up too as wishing we were getting more toys out of this than just Prime/Megs/Bee.

I truly hope they expand the toyline. They're probably waiting to see how the game does.

Who is the other pre-order character shown, besides Shockwave and Demolisher?

I can't tell if it is Prowl, Jazz, Red Alert or Drift.

Kinda looks like any of them, but Jazz first came to mind, but the red is throwing me off.

if Breakdown gets a figure (I hope so!) he will be repainted to join my Lockdown Corps.
unless Hasbro wants to repaint him as LD for me... *hint hint*

Meh...still not impressed enough to buy the game when it comes out. I really can't stand the designs of the decepticons (absolutely hate how all of them are all pointy. And the autobots just leave me Blah, nothing special.)

This still looks like a pass for me, atleast until gamestop has it used for under $20.
