Bumble Bee gets changed from a 1970 Camaro to a 2008/2009 Camaro, so maybe Megatron will be converted from an "Alien Jet" into something more recognizable. Just a thought??

WILDACEX187 · 08-24-2006, 06:54 PM

wats with the alien jet. i thought there were earthly vehicles

Well originally the Autobots and Decepticons crash landed on earth after a battle on Cybertron. They were shaped like behicles and jets on their planet. When they crashed and knocked-out theur ship sent out a drone to capture pictures of Earth vehicles. I came back to the ship and the ships robotics rebuilt them to how we recognize then now...

ONYX S-13 · 08-25-2006, 09:11 AM

Yeah well... They need to hurry up and send that drone out cause he looks lame.. Way too complex... Unlike soundwave there are guns big enough for him to get "reconstructed" into like a cannon from a battleship or something..

ThatGuy: I know nothing about the military/airforce/Navy but wouldn't one of those guns be big enough for the megatron character?

Certainly.

Didn't I see a picture of a big tank in one of the spy photo sets? I thought that was going to be Megatron?

ONYX S-13 · 08-25-2006, 09:28 AM

!!!!!!!!!!!

That would be slight overkill ..

You just reminded me of that. I think your right. Or at least that's what the spy shots have shown. Who knows though if that's another decepticon or if that's possibly Megatron's Earth form. THEN I'd bee happy.

I know this stuff is old but it goes along with the theme of the thread (All robot/CGI stuff)

Yea that was a cool show.

SimpleS14 · 08-25-2006, 01:51 PM

wow...those are some crazy looking transformers. I guess they are updating them given the time we live in and the current generation of kids might want aggressive looking bots like these.

*ManoNegra* · 08-25-2006, 02:00 PM

lol.. that's my Yahoo IM avatar right now.
I watched the show in Spanish when I was a kid.

Yea my take on the new designs is:

They DO look cool, BUT they don't looke like Transformers. There just to far from any of the OG design's.

Kids now-a-days are a bunch of pansey's anyway and didn't grow up with Transformers. F'em.

ONYX S-13 · 08-25-2006, 03:44 PM

Hey !

That's my daughter you're talkin bout mister !

SochBAT · 08-25-2006, 05:52 PM

Megatron = gayyy.

Tooo damn complexed, and distracted. I took a while to kinda find whats what on him.

Intense eyes, and mouthguards that can slip away.

KFLS14 · 08-26-2006, 09:39 AM

Thats hot can't wait for it to come out already.

DRFT · 08-26-2006, 02:41 PM

theicecreamdan · 08-26-2006, 09:50 PM

you can't really expect everything to look like it did in the 80s, times have changed. The real world today is a million times more complicated than it was 20 years ago. If everything looked like the OG1 tranformers it would lack a lot of coolness that we are capable of creating now.

GlacierFreeze · 08-27-2006, 12:01 AM

Quit whinig, you should expect them to update their looks geez.

No your right on that and I agree. However i think there is a happy median somewhere between these concept's and our OG G1 Transformers.

And guys don't think I'm alone of complaining about these designs. tfw2005.com has numerous topics about the new movie. People happy with the disigns are few and far between.

Don't get me wrong. I'm still gonna see this movie day one, with out a doubt...

I think the Optimus Prime concept fits that...as well as Bumble Bee.

I would say they are the closest, yes. Magatron the is an abomination. They (refering to Michael Bay and the rest of the people involved) release info on Jazz making him sound more like a G1 Transformer. The people on the TF forums are basically calling is damage control becuase so many people are pissed off about Megatron.

According to the script, Megatron is somewhat of a vampire. He actually sucks the "souls" or "sparks" from his victim's bodies. Also, in the movie, he is Optimus Prime's brother.

Interesting stuff huh?

Dunkee · 08-28-2006, 08:38 AM

No way...guess they are trying to make him into a small version of unicron. Too much artistic license going on. They need respect some of the original story. I'ma watch it regardless but I smell disaster.

ONYX S-13 · 08-28-2006, 08:44 AM

BROTHER !?

Now that's what you call some sibling rivalry (To like the 10th power)

*exitspeed* · 08-28-2006, 09:13 AM

Yes and this is the reason for Megatron's different look.

I dunno, I don't think it's too bad of a story line. We'll see.

*exitspeed* · 08-28-2006, 12:39 PM

MB reveals Transformers heights...

So exactly how big are these robots? Michael Bay gave us the rundown on some of the robots:

Jazz : 13 feet tall
Bumblebee: 17 feet tall
Ratchet: 24 feet tall
Iron Hide: 26 feet tall
Optimus Prime: 28 feet tall
Megatron: 34 feet tall

Jazz is shorter then Bemblebee.
