Spoiler Filled EMPIRE Magazine Image Descriptions

Grabbed this image from Alienboy at TFW, but not sure where he got it.



You can clearly see Blackout, Scorponok and Starscream which supports Point #2...

*Egyptian hieroglyphics, turn out to be depictions of Transformers who visited Earth before the pyramids were built.

Although, how they have modern alt modes in an Egyptian hieroglyph is beyond me. That's why I'm not sure if Alienbot made this, or got it from the magazine.

Those are actual real-life hieroglypics with erosion that look like modern vehicles. See here:

That enough robots for you folks who were complaining that the last movie didn't have enough?

They should have done that in the 1st movie so we would still have Jazz

Megs is a tank? Armada

Megatron was a tank long before Aramada...

Ahh ok. More reasons for me to never finish Armada.

Naw I don't think Bay would think of that, I mean on a creative scale he did good but sometimes killing the main bad guy and not having him return in an old or even a new form is a dumb idea.

Though as long as they don't pull a Galactus or something, by having the new villain hide behind a CGI cloud.

And even more thinking that's why Spider-Man was a bad movie trilogy. I know in this day it's a matter of realism and kinda annoying to have the same villains coming back but the way those movies go it's like he won't have anyone to fight. Not to mention they pushed too much on the Green Goblin being the main villain/rival in all three movies.

Yes, I know... it's a news item from this website. But still, that's a package made by Hasbro. Why would Hasbro give us a FAB Megatron, in a new tank mode, if he wasn't gonna show up? I can understand Bay's use of the misinformation stuff, trying to keep the movie secret and all, but I think he needs to research better, otherwise he might just look like an @$$...

The same reason that we got FAB Ramjet and Voyager Thundercracker from the first movie line, to sell toys!!! It's all about the benjamins!!

Drat, Giant Purple Griffin beat me to it.
