[Crimson Dynamo]

Megatron
Starscream
Skywarp
Thundercracker
Soundwave
Ravage
Devastator (I'm cheating I know, but what a great villain eh?)

yay SOUNDWAVE! :up:

[GoldGoblin]

What's the one that turns into a cassette player that has tapes that come out of his chest and the tapes turn into robot animals?

[Crimson Dynamo]

Soundwave.

[Hellboy Jr.]

if soundwave is not there, this movie will suck :mad:

I dunno, Dynamo's list is pretty good. We're not gonna be seeing astrotrain or the predacons or the insecticons or anybody like that, I'm sure.

[GoldGoblin]

Soundwave.

^Yeah,I hope he is in it.

[cabel]

If Soundwave's in it, they to put in Rumble

[DrSpengler]

A pretty uninspired but basic list:

Megatron
Starscream
Skywarp
Thundercracker
Blitzwing
Soundwave

And that only leaves me with one option for a Cassette. Rumble, Ravage or Laserbeak? How can I choose...

[Crimson Dynamo]

Okay, I'll let you have the cassette-bots! You can't have Soundwave and not include his buddies!

[GoldGoblin]

How many different cassette buddies did Soundwave have,and what were they?

[Mister J]

Megatron
Starscream
Skywarp
Soundwave (Laserbeak, Rumble, Ravage, Frenzy)
Astrotrain
Reflector
Shockwave

Limiting it to seven is just cruel. I need Insecticons, Stunticons and most definately Constructicons (...merge to form DEVASTATOR!)

How many different cassette buddies did Soundwave have,and what were they?

I only remember 6:
Laserbeak (condor...or maybe a dodo :p),
Ravage (jaguar),
Rumble (robot with piledriver arms),
Ratbat (bat),
Buzzsaw (Laserbeak clone),
Frenzy (Rumble clone).

Those are from the cartoon. I never read the comic book or really kept up with the other incarnations though. There could be more. Anybody, feel free to offer others or corrections.

[GoldGoblin]

^I wonder if we will get alot of them in the movie.

[Mister J]

If Soundwave is in the movie (and he better be *shakes fist*), I'd bet on Laserbeak and Ravage. Maybe they'd toss in a few others, but I always considered those two in the same breath.

[GoldGoblin]

^I wonder if they would create even new ones for the movie.

[GoldGoblin]

Do you think they will have those robots that transform into a giant robot together?

[Mister J]

^I wonder if they would create even new ones for the movie.
God, I hope not. That just seems like overkill. With the all the characters in the rich Transformers universe, I don't think they need to make up any more.

Do you think they will have those robots that transform into a giant robot together?
I definately want to see the Constructicons. The Predacons and the Stunticons might be pushing it, but I gotta have DEVASTATOR!

[GoldGoblin]

How many characters do you think will we see in this movie,I don't even remember all of the characters?

[Mister J]

How many characters do you think will we see in this movie,I don't even remember all of the characters?

Not a clue. They'll probably only focus on a few on each side, but there could be tons of others in the background.

What are the top 7 you wanna see?

Slugfest and Overkill appeared in one episode of the cartoon ("Call of the Primatives"). He also had Beastbot and Squakbox in the Marvel comic and toylines.

Those are kinda the "loser" cassettes nobody remembers because they never really did anything. Ever.

Well, Slugfest and Overkill DID get their asses kicked by Daniel in an issue of the Transformers manga. But then, Daniel and Wheelie also defeated Trypticon in the first episode of the Headmasters series.

GoldGoblin -

Optimus Prime = Autobot
Soundwave
Megatron
Constructicons
Starscream
Trailbreaker = Autobot
Hound = Autobot


This is the Decepticon thread. Unless of course you want these guys to switch sides. Which, I might add, would be weird.

[DrSpengler]

Yeah, that was the issue of the manga I referenced where Daniel kicked the crap outta them.

No wonder Soundwave didn't use them much.

I like how people have to include all three planes (or "The Seekers" as they're collectively known)! You can't just have one without the others!

[DrSpengler]

Well, Starscream is the "Air Commander".

He's gotta command something.

[GoldGoblin]

What are those robots that turn into dinosaurs and they also transform into a giant robot,are they Decepticon?

Do you think they will have any robots that transform into giant robots,or do you think they will save that for the sequel?

[Mister J]

Dinbots. In the original cartoon, they never merged into a giant robot. I'm not positive on any of the other incarnations, but I don't think they merged there either.
They damn well should have though. There were 5 of them and they often went against Devastator. It would have been the most kickass merged Transformer of all.

Do you think they will have any robots that transform into giant robots,or do you think they will save that for the sequel?
I'd like to see it. However, if this nonsense about only 10 Transformers being in the mix holds true, we can forget that.

*Fingers crossed on that possibility for a sequel*

[DrSpengler]

The Dinobots never merged into a gestalt, but in Transformers Victory a Decepticon subgroup called the Dinoforce could combine to form Dinoking.

Save for Magmatron (kinda), I believe Dinoking was the only Dinosaur gestalt ever made. But even the dinosaur forms were just pretender shells and the robots didn't actually transform into Dinosaurs (they were repaints of the US Monstructor set).

[GoldGoblin]

In the cartoon Megatron turned into a pistol,when did they change him into a tank instead?

[DrSpengler]

Generation 2.

In the US comics he teamed up with Cobra (from GI Joe) who built him his tank body and gave him the super pwoerful railgun on his shoulder.

In the Japanese manga he merged with Dark Nova during Battlestars and became Star Giant, which Star Convoy destroyed. Megatron survived and was rebuilt into his tank form.

[Flame on!]

I would actually bet in favour of Megatron, Starscream and Soundwave as the only high profile villians, with a bunch of little crap ones that don't do much until the end when they form into on of those ridiculous multi-robots robot.

[GoldGoblin]

I wonder if they will have the same voice for Starscream like they did in the cartoon.

[DrSpengler]

Chris Latta died in the early 90's.

He's had a number of replacements since then.

Scott McNeil took over as Cobra Commander for the last season of GI Joe, Doug Parker played Starscream during his guest appearance in the Beast Wars episode "Possession", and the current voice of Starscream on Armada, Energon and Cybertron is Paul Dobson. Dobson also voiced Cobra Commander for the GI Joe Spytroops and Valor vs. Venom movies.

[Destructicus]

I liked Doug Parker's voice for Starscream. He did a really good job. As for my pick I would have to choose,

Megatron
Soundwave (cassecticons included)
Shockwave
Starscream
Skywarp
Thundercracker
no triplechagers yet so I dont know who to have last.

[DrSpengler]

I liked Doug Parker's voice for Starscream. He did a really good job. As for my pick I would have to choose,


Doug Parker was actually the voice director for the 3rd and 4th seasons of GI Joe (the "DiC Years", as they're often called) and considered Chris Latta to be one of the best people he ever worked with.

So he tapped a decent Starscream impression for Terrorsaur on Beast Wars, but did an even BETTER impression when he played the actual character in "Possession".

Dobson's done a decent job, I think, but only because Armada/Energon/Cybertron Starscream is a completely different character than the G1 incarnation. He wouldn't be a good voice for G1 Starscream.

His Cobra Commander left a bit to be desired, and I really wish they'd let Scott McNeil reprise the role since he was present doing the voice of Destro in those CGI movies and his Cobra Commander impression from the 4th season of GI Joe was practically flawless.
