well that would be the point of having a tank, to have one huge decepticon in the ranks that dwarfs the others...

i very much doubt they will all be equal in size anywho, they'll all vary depending on the vehicles they come from.

all the aircrafts are bound to be bigger than all the cars etc...

its not a michael bay movie without huge tits:up:yeah because aircrafts are longer and will be longer when stretched out to form torso and limbs etc...

and i'm referring to cars rather than trucks although i doubt they'd be much smaller (smaller at all) compared to optimus prime who is still smaller than a fighter aircraft i feel.

Ironhide has been a truck many times throughout the various TF incarnations/re-adaptations. So that would be nothing new, plus it works with his character. And yeah he's one of the 3 Oldest Autobots in the G1 storyline.

They just rented that Cabover style truck for the comic con last year the truck was actually white I do believe they just put red vinyl tape over the exposed parts. But alas it looks as if Prime will indeed be a long-nose conventional style truck.

Maybe Jazz got called out for a "mission" or something and left his "owner" there in shame. Looking at the cars i hope jazz's alternate mode is hot european sports car.

Bonecrusher was originally a bulldozer and one of six 'Constructicons' who formed Devastator, the most infamous of all combiners (and fan favourite by six billion miles).

However, someone decided that Bonecrusher should be a minesweeper and Devastator should be a single Transformer (tank).

They weren't thinking about sequels though (IMO) and thankfully those two guys won't appear in this (setup) movie. :o

Technically not really.
G1 Ironhide is red. But this movie isn't G1 Redux. So it won't matter.

But Ironhide's been several other colors and a truck in other storylines/toylines.
In TF: Universe he is a Black Pick-Up Truck.

I know. I meant wrong >IMO<. ;)

The designers (and by 'designers' I mean 'Bay') are doing their best to make the characters as unrecognisable as possible, most likely for toy reasons. It reminds me of the crap that blighted the first movie.

Prime: From A red cab-over to a long nose flamejob
Bumblebee: From a small car to a muscle car
Ironhide: Red van to a black pickup

And the Decepticons speak for themselves. ;)

Actually, almost everything in the movie that we've heard of as rumors has a precedent from some Transformers Toyline/Storyline/Comic. Really they are basically drawing on every storyline, comic, and/or toyline they can.

Examples:
1.) Prime as a Long-Nose Semi - G2
2.) Ironhide as a Truck - G2, TF: Universe
3.) Starscream as a F-22 Raptor Jet - TF: Energon (character's alt. mode based on the Raptor Jet)
4.) Megatron as Cybertronian Jet - Late Japanese G1, TF: Energon, TF: Cybertron
5.) Jazz as an Exotic Sportscar - G1, G2
6.) Bumblebee being damaged and being rebuilt into a better, stronger, faster version of himself - G1
7.) Quest for "Energon Cube" (which is just the Creation Matrix) - G1
8.) The Autobots befriending a few main human characters - G1, TF: Armada, TF: Energon, TF: Cybertron
9.) Megatron being captured and experimented on - G2, Dreamwave G1 Comics, G.I. Joe vs. Transformers
10.) Military misunderstanding and attacking both Autobots and Decepticons - G1


It's a fairly smart move to try to draw in multiple audiences, and using all the different stories, comics, and toylines could be it. But will it prove to be the wrong choice in the long run?? Who knows...

Actually, almost everything in the movie that we've heard of as rumors has a precedent from some Transformers Toyline/Storyline/Comic. Really they are basically drawing on every storyline, comic, and/or toyline they can.

Examples:
1.) Prime as a Long-Nose Semi - G2
2.) Ironhide as a Truck - G2, TF: Universe
3.) Starscream as a F-22 Raptor Jet - TF: Energon (character's alt. mode based on the Raptor Jet)
4.) Megatron as Cybertronian Jet - Late Japanese G1, TF: Energon, TF: Cybertron
5.) Jazz as an Exotic Sportscar - G1, G2
6.) Bumblebee being damaged and being rebuilt into a better, stronger, faster version of himself - G1
7.) Quest for "Energon Cube" (which is just the Creation Matrix) - G1
8.) The Autobots befriending a few main human characters - G1, TF: Armada, TF: Energon, TF: Cybertron

Oh yeah, most of them have precident*, but as you point out, a lot of that stuff is unknown to lapsed fans or people who watched the original show or bought the toys (a very large crowd of people).

Like you say, we'll just have to wait and see if these deviations from the most well known version of Transformers work for or against the movie.

* Wheelie and Kremzeek also have precident BTW. That doesn't mean they should be included in the movie.

Stuff people know and like > unkown quantities

I have to say, the Alternators toy line could very well give a good idea of how the movie versions will tranform. I mean these toys have very real interiors, nearly perfect real life detail. Just check them out. Here's a link.

Which version of Blitzwing? In the first draft of the script, Blitzwing was supposed to be a Military Cargo Jet and he was rumored to have been mentioned by name. Is this the same jet you are referring to?

Also...
G1 Blitzwing was based roughly on a Russian MiG 25 Fighter Jet.

Yeah, all the Decepticons were mentioned by name (well on a computer screen at least). I don't know about other scripts.

Talking about the one where Devastator was a jumbo jet and Blitzwing was some kind of military cargo plane, like you say. I don't actually remember the exact model of plane though.

I think they've probably combined the chracters of HotRod and Bumblebee to make the Bumblebee we'll see in the movie. However, if they have a HotRod character by himself, that is the perfect car.
