The first steps to the promotion of "The Awakening of the Beasts" officially begin. From today to December details of mkt campaigns in the region will be fine-tuned. And December kicks off strong with everything concerning toys and the movie's early previews.
We know that Hasbro does have marketing material for the toys available with mock ups for the retail space, but we don't know when that will be shown in full either.
We also know the the film is not finished yet, which is normal for a film over 7 months out. Additional scenes are yet to be filmed, and some of those scenes will feature US rapper Toby Nwigwe, who anounced it in this video below:
Hopefully you will indeed hear from us again come December where there will be even more to discuss.

Yes, I really enjoyed the passion. Including the passion from Michael Bay himself who seemed far more relaxed and less on edge since he didn't have to direct the whole thing and was more of a passing observer, lending his hand when he could.

The designs are on a picture of a mug that was found in a licensed memorabilia boutique specializing in mugs. The original post is here.

One could ask the same of the 2007 movie and both faction symbols.

Not complaining, in fact I'm glad they found a design that conveys "Rhinox" while being original enough that it doesn't evoke his Transmetal body or any other past rhino-formers.

I think it's the angle of the head in the picture. It almost makes it look like he has no neck and that the head connects directly to the torso, if that makes sense.
Looking closer, that Cheetor almost has a Beast Machines vibe to it.
FYI, major props for the Herculoids reference. Those were the good ol' days....

I only got acquainted with Alex Toth cartoons in '97, right before Toonami started, my last year of high school. Not many action cartoons where the heroes were a nuclear family; only The Bionic 6 and The Secret Saturdays spring to mind.First-Aid wrote:FYI, major props for the Herculoids reference.

I guess the Beast Machines resemblance was inevitable when combining Beast Era designs with the sort of details we expect from Bayformers, but again I'm not complaining (oddly enough). The aesthetics were never one of the serious problems I had with the show, and comments on Airrazor's design seemed to agree that's what Silverbolt should've looked like, so maybe they'll all end up being improved versions of some past attempt attempt at techno-organimals.

No one said anything about blending in, that was never the intention in Beast Wars hence the giant insects and giant rat and dinosaurs roaming around. And in the 5 seasons these characters featured in, only 1 had them in these modes that seemed fully organic, so these designs are paying a more well rounded homage to all designs rather than just the season 1 look.

It's funny to think of it that way, and it's very true. I'm just counting down to when we get a trailer, which I'm guessing will happen around superbowl time.

Yes, february would make sense for a teaser, with a full trailer being closer to 2 months before the movie is out.

Yeah, over the entire history of the Transformers brand, beast modes have rarely, if ever at all, been used for disguise purposes.ZeroWolf wrote:william-james88 wrote:griftimus prime wrote:at least in beast wars they looked like the other animals. these do not pass for creatures that would blend in.

That's true. Beast Wars it was a protective mechanism. Beast Machines it was for stealth.
Funny that the animal bots have never been about disguise...

If you think about it, NONE of them were in disguise. They always know who each other were except for the humans who were fooled. All the 'bots and 'cons knew each other's modes. Kind of ruins the whole "Robots in Disguise" thing.

The robots in disguise thing was always from the human perspective, it was a big part of 2015's RID theme. It was also a theme in the Bumblebee movie. But it was never an element in Beast Wars due to the story being either in the distant past or on cybertron.

Well,
But seriously, I think it's simply because those beasts shared the same timeline as the standard and . Thus, the "fusion" of the faction symbols.

In hindsight, the technorganic/Transmetal II look might be the best way to translate organic altmodes with a mechanical transformation to live-action. Otherwise the alternatives would be to have the beast mode as split body parts (like the BW 90's CGI) or the flesh ripping and reattaching with each transformation (like in Sins of the Wreckers)
Or they could make them overly-complex like Alice from RoTF, but then it'd be impossible to make toys out of them.

Without further ado, here is a link to the official teaser trailer on the Seibertron.com YouTube channel:
We get to hear Peter Cullen as Optimus prime and Ron Perlman as Optimus Primal who spends quite a bit of time in his gorilla mode with only a brief look at his robot mode at the end. That goes for the other 3 maximals in his movie (Rhinox, Airazor and Cheetor) who are seen more in their alt modes, at least in this trailer. We also get a very good look at Mirage's robot mode and his power which does have a G1 theme to it. We also see Arcee and Bumblebee very well. We get to see the shot of Arcee hanging onto Wheeljack's van alt mode which was previously shown to industry insiders.
The villains are less obvious in this trailer though we do get a good look at Battletrap in both of his modes. You'll let us know what you think!

I really like that Prime has his Bayverse face again, though the rest of the design feels a little weird. Bumblebee's looking good though!

Primal looks like Beast Machines Primal with Prime's head superimposed on it.
Every single one of these character designs looks like a fan edit speculating who will be in Age Of Extinction from 2013. Optimus has the proportions of someone speculating what evasion mode Optimus would look like in robot mode.
The textures and shading on the models look unfinished.
