I was just heading to sleep but I'm pleasantly surprised to see this roundup post thanks for putting it together Va'al!
Regardless of we think of the movies or their looks I don't think we can deny the hard work, effort and creativity that goes into making these movie's.

Kinda like when they revealed Hod rod and everyone said "Thats hot rod!"
They're movie characters. You can look at any duo and say they look like anyone you want. You can look at them and say rumble and frenzy, topspin and twin twist, anyone can fill the bill.

Well, maybe not Frenzy and Rumble. Probably not Topspin or Twintwist as well.
Though, the tank bot on the right has his arms in the design of Rumble's piledrivers...

I don't think so. Rack n' Ruin came to my mind because even though these two aren't conjoined in robot mode they do look like they could possibhly merge together for tank mode (assuming they don't form individual tanks, i know it looks like both have treads but it does sorta look like the right one could form the base of the tank and the left one form the top and turret) and their rough, army look brings to mind those simple badass green Wreckers (at least from Marvel, I can't recall much about them from the IDW stuff). I certainly don't see Rumble/Frenzy or Topspin/Twintwist here at all. Besides, one of each of those pairs has already been in the movies. I'm not saying these could definitely be Rack N' Ruin, but if names were needed that homaged G1 characters in any sorta sense then that would be my first choice. Some movie characters are meant to be recognisable as movieverse equivalents of their G1 counterparts like Optimus Prime and Bumblebee and other movie characters come across as all new ones that just share the name of a G1 character if nothing else. Doesn't make them a bad character at all, and in a lot of cases I prefer the movie character with that name. The Sideswipes only really share a name and the fact they are autobot cars but as much as I loved red lambos when I was a kid, I much prefer the movie character Sideswipe. I just think he's more fun and generally cooler.

The one on the left turns into an American tank, the one on the right turns into a British tank. They aren't twins, just allies.
Edit: I'm wrong; both are British.

As awful as TLK was I will always appreciate the level of thought and imagination that goes into the concept art. I wish these people were given actually decent material/scriptwriters to work with because these concepts are great. Especially the tank twins.

Yeah, IIRC their movie stuff was pretty sweet. Me and a friend were discussing recently that it'd be neat if some of the better elements of the movies got added to IDW G1, Specificaly Nitro Zeus, who seriously needs some expansion. The fact we got a Decepticon who had an actual personality (obnoxious blowhard chatterbox) and NOT just a "hurr durr I break stuff" brute, from the MOVIES of all things, is a sign that gold was struck and tossed aside because these people don't know a good idea when they see one.
Speaking of which, am I the only one who thinks "Dreadbot" should have been named "Cruellock"? It's an awesome name, it already exists in Transformers, AND it works for the rather unimaginative "Well, uh, he has dreadlocks so let's name him after that" theme they were running with. Sure he did absolutely nothing but I'd much rather have heard Frank Welker say "Cruellock" in that awesome growl than "Dreadbot".

I know this is completely of topic but here's a fun theory. What if Quintus Prime was the true manipulator of the primes not Maximo. Yes Maximo betrayed the primes with his war beast, but Quintus helped him make them. When Megatronus killed Solus by accident thanks to Maximo's tampering, Quintus was the first to jump to the conclusion of hunting Maximo down. When confronted Maximo made it clear that Quintus helped him create the beast but Quintus would not take responsibility. With Maximo out of the way and the Primes splinted he left Cybertron to seed other worlds with life through the ember stone. After he left Cybertron, the Covenant of Primus states that he was never heard from again once he created the Quintessons who possibly killed their creator when they no longer needed him. It never truly says they killed him though so he could be out their still. It seems a little fishy to me that once Cybertron is technically defenseless without the Primes his creations invade Cybertron to enslave it and its people. Deep down I believe that Quintus was the true betrayer because he was able to splinter the Primes by pulling Maximos strings without him even knowing it. The only reason this whole theory came up is because of transformers the last knights Quintessa the great deceiver who is kind of based on Quintus so who is to say if Quintus Prime father of the Quintessons was not the true great deceiver in Transformers aligned continuity

More bot art today from Wes Burt this time it's Mohawk and although the design is final here Mohawk is looking less colorful then he does in the movie. Edit: looked at a screenshot of him and the colors that I was talking about is green spray paint on him so I guess this is what he looks like without it.

Shame we did not see his knife fight with Drift like this old concept art from James Piack shows.

Heh yeah probably
Shame though...I like the movie I really do but the lack of control is disastrous and very unprofessional from Paramount, to Bay, to god damn Lorenzo to Hasbro...it doesn't help that the writers were just throwing crap in for the sake of throwing crap in like with Anthony Hopkings and the butler from Downton Abbey.
What was the point of the writer's room?
