"Around 40 robots"...make your list!

[Golgo-13]

*Bay and LaBeouf confirm the Fallen is a separate character. The Fallen was described by Bay as "Apocalyptic"
*Egyptian hieroglyphics, turn out to be depictions of Transformers who visited Earth before the pyramids were built.
*Bay claims Megatron is not coming back and the tank is just a new toy.
*Around 40 robots.
*Budget is $200 million.
*Ramon Rodriguez is the one holding on for dear life to a pole while cars are flung.
*Devastator appears at the pyramid, he's probably 50 feet tall because that's the height of the camera crane they used on location.

From the Empire mag. Now lets just assume that this isn't part of Bay's mis-information campaign, name as many or name the 40 your THINK will be in the movie.

..i'm sorry but 26 is all i can come up with based upon what we've seen/heard so far. :csad:

[LightningFlash]

27.) Prowl for Autobots

28.) Thundercracker for Decepticons

[starscream]

29) Wheeljack

[Killing Joke926]

29) Wheeljack

My favorite Autobot; it'd be nice if he, Shockwave, and Gear was gonna be in there, but it's hard to say right now. You guys forgot about Springer though; it's been confirmed with the new sightings of his figure and his the helecopter in the hirogliphs.

[Darth Megatron]

How many of you buy The business of bay talking about Megatron just being a toy and not coming back to the movie

[Golgo-13]

I don't buy it. It'll suck if he's not in it. Didn't Orci or someone else say earlier that Megs WAS coming back?

[Hotwire]

Sideswipe & Skids

Also, don't forget the peons!

[LightningFlash]

I think it's one of Bay's lies.

But on a side-note...do you think Welker should voice Fallen?

[Golgo-13]

Sideswipe & Skids

Also, don't forget the peons!

Ah, my mistake. When i listed Sunstreaker on my list i meant Sideswipe as it's already been confirmed as the name of the silver corvette.

[Avangarde]

Cramming 40 bots into one movie is rubbish, if it's true there will be a heap of non speaking bots that are slapped in just for show.

[RED-RAIN]

lazerbeak

[Ratcrawler]

Well bear in mind, X-Men 3 had like a hundred mutants but most of those were nameless extras. This'll probly be the same.

[Batx69]

Bay may not be TECHNICALY lying if the art was saw wasn't Megatron but Galvitron, tho bay doesn't seem quit savey enough to pull one like that so I figure megs is in it and hell still be called megatron.

[RED-RAIN]

wasnt there rumblings that hot rod was going to be in this as well?

[LightningFlash]

Hot Rod, that's his name...haha, wow.

Totally forgot and said Hot Shot in some other forum.

But God no...he'll be like Bumblebee except red.

[Jake Cassidy]

I thought Wreckage was a Decepticon???

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

I think we'll get the main one's and then a group of nameless one's, which does indeed suck. Also, Goglo, cant see Shockwave being in this. Which is a shame.

[terry78]

See, I think that may be what it is. I give Bay credit when credit is due, and after a few years of reading up on this stuff he very well could have knowledge of the Galvatron resurrection and use that in the sequel.

[Dr Lee]

untill i see either a CGI shot of the 3 bikes form one Arcee... or the Arcee toy appears showing this is the case... Arcee is still a single bike... and the other two are either holograms or other characters.

[protocida]

He said it would be arround 40 robots, but he didn't say it would be 40 famous robots. My theory is that we're going to see the Decepticon army at some point (Only see). And the important character will be arround 21.

[Cth]

Prime, Ratchet, Ironhide, Bumblebee, Jetfire, Starscream, Barricade, Soundwave, Arcee (3), Volt, Sideswipe, Audi R8, Trax & Beat, 7 Constructicons, Ice-cream truck twins (2), Fallen, Ravage
---------------
27

Alice the Pretender
Wheels the remote controlled car
----------------
29

+13 original Transformers (since we're getting the history of the Transformers)
------------------------
42

+ Megatron (maybe as Galvatron at the end)
+ Wreckage (unlikely)
+ Jazz (pics did surface of a rebuilt Jazz)
------------------------
45

[LightningFlash]

Don't forget that other "minion" with Soundwave. The one with the bird beak.

[Chris B]

IMO, I think the odds are in favor of the TF's we don't know about being basicly nameless drones that fill out the rest of the supposed 40. At this point, I kind of doubt that guys like Prowl, Wheeljack, the Seekers, etc. made it in without there being evidence of them from the numerous set pics that are around.

[LightningFlash]

I know Prowl won't be in it. Unless we see a flashback of Cybertron...and then that would explain the "40" robots.

[Ironfan72]

I could see Starscream going and bringing back re-enforcements, like the rest of the Decepticon Seeker Jets

Thundercracker
Skywarp
Ramjet

I think that's it.

[Mulanzo]

Grimlock.

That is all.

[protocida]

I don't think so.

[Terror Inc.]

So has Springer been confirmed or denied yet? I know there is a toy but that doesn't mean anything. As my favorite autobot, i was kinda hopin to see him in there.

[Mulanzo]

I don't think so.

Heh.... A guy can dream...

[protocida]

I don't think we'll see the Pretenders. My guess is that that's part of Bay's misinformation campaing.

[Golgo-13]

It's hard to tell with Bay. I hope the Megatron news is false.

[protocida]

It's obviously false. My guess is that he invented that because the new design leaked.

[DeeBarr]

- Optimus Prime.
- Bumblebee.
- Ratchet.
- Ironhide.
- Wheeljack.
- Ultra Magnus
- Hotrod
- Mirage
- Prowl
- Huffer
- Cliffjumper
- Kup

And GRIMLOCK!!! Oh my God that would be great!

[LightningFlash]

No dinosaur Transformers.

[Mulanzo]

No dinosaur transformers could be misinformation.

If Grimlock were in the movie, it would be entirely in greenscreen cgi anyways since there are obviously no life size robots you could use. He probably wont be in, but nothing we've seen from set pics says otherwise. Only Bay and Orci have said anything and they could very well be blowing smoke up our a$$es as they said they would...

[Mikelus]

It's hard to tell with Bay. I hope the Megatron news is false.

Maybe is true, but Megatron's body could appear in the end to be transformed into Galvatron by Unicron, cliffhanger ending to be continued in the third one.

[November Rain]

this is madness even trying to count, there is no way going to be 40 recognisable robots.

[Dotten]

I'd easily replace 20 transformers for Grimlock. I'm transforming to an eight-year old anyway when watching this, so a giant ****ing dinosaur-robot walking around makes perfect sense :D

[Bayless]

The Autobot Hound, who transforms into a military Jeep Wrangler, will be featured in this film on special request from the United States Military. They noted that in the first film most of the military vehicles were used for the evil Decepticons, so now they asked that some of them be good guys.

FROM IMDB!!!

[SuperFerret]

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

Am I the only one who thought of Beast Wars when reading this, seeing as how many Egyptian gods were animal-like?

[LightningFlash]

That's why Fallen looks like Anubis though.

[SuperFerret]

Ah.

Skids is awesome!

Is that its name, Dispensor? We called him Mountain Dewbot.

[LightningFlash]

Yah, Dispensor is his "Transformer" name, lol.

And what aggravates me is that we have Sideswipe, but not Sunstreaker. That's like having Megatron but no Starscream.

[Jake Cassidy]

^ That's not that big of a deal. Sideswipe's always been the cooler of the two, anyway. :woot:

[oakzap425]

THANK YOU!!

I thought I was the only one feeling this!

If they make the other twin a different bot, I'm going to be pissed.

[AnorexicBatman]

Nobody cares for Sunstreaker!
Now... how about an Autobot Sea King Sikorsky by the name of E-VAC!

Also, the Twins are Swerve and Skids apparently

So many bots and cons: http://in.youtube.com/watch?v=BOXSUpGY0qM&feature=related
I was having an orgasm reading the names....

[LightningFlash]

That was gay.

[The Lizard]

I'd easily replace 20 transformers for Grimlock. I'm transforming to an eight-year old anyway when watching this, so a giant ****ing dinosaur-robot walking around makes perfect sense :D

Agreed.

Movie Grimlock would be so simple to explain anyway. Just have one particular protoform Autobot crash-land in a special-effects warehouse, damage his brain circuits a little bit, and happen to scan a giant electronic t-rex movie prop as the first item he emulates as his alt form.

All that would be needed afterward would be a brief follow-up scene in the final battle sequence and everyone would be happy.

[Bayless]

either that or just do like they did with Rampage and Scorpinok. just a transformer thing that resembles an animal.

[SpiderByte]

Is that its name, Dispensor? We called him Mountain Dewbot.
his OFFICIAL name is Dispensor, but Mountain Dewbot was used in a game somewhere, i think...

[SpiderByte]

either that or just do like they did with Rampage and Scorpinok. just a transformer thing that resembles an animal.

I just remebered that Scorpinok SURVIVED TF1....
another one to the list!

Exactly why if Bay doesnt put him in the movie (or next) he will die. Its wicked simple.

What about Superion?:wow: .:woot:

[SpiderByte]

I just added up my list. Its about 44.

Unfortunately, he doesn't care about pleasing our fanboy pallettes for this movie.

[Jake Cassidy]

^ Why should he? We never agree on anything, anyway. :oldrazz:

[Jake Cassidy]

Hey, Spider-Byte. You keep putting Wreckage on the list of Autobots. I thought he was a Decpticon. Did I miss something?

















I probably did. :o :csad:

[Silver Knight]

in a perfect world i'd like to see a two hour movie of just shockwave hangin out all alone at the decepticon base on cybertron.

Yeah me too, one of my favourite Decepticons :up:
I dont understand the hype surrounded by Soundwave. Someone please fill me in.

[Jake Cassidy]

^ Yeah. I don't get it either. I always found him quite boring.

Orci hinted that Ravage may have friends.

:shock If Lazerbeak and Ravage's other "friends" are anything like him, Sam's dead.

Also, dont forget that they said their would be transforming weapons.

Maybe sam will get a bazooka or something :hehe::hehe:

What about Devastator?

I don't think it'll be called Devastator; so just "seven Constructicons" will be what they're called now.

Springer is the helicopter. There is an article somewhere recently (don't know where it is from) that said that Springer was going to be working with Lennox, etc. I don't know for sure, but.

Nothing has confirmed laserbeak yet...

And theres a rumor the twins combine, along with the sisters.
And there are also supposed to be the seekers (Starscream brought FRIENDS)
So the thread is not dead yet!!!

[LightningFlash]

Lazerbeak seems to be Alice.

And we do have confirmation for the character, and it's been for a while now since there is a pic of him circulating.

The twins combining does sound like a good idea, but the three sisters combining does not.

And supposedly, Starscream returns with 3 of his flying friends.

[protocida]

And the Allspark fragment will create more eletrodomestic Decepticons in Sam's dormroom.

I believe we'll see the 12 originals Transformers a.k.a The Primes in this movie too, probably in some dream sequence according to the kids novel.

As far as the seekers go, i think Jetfire will be the only one we see.

Yeah I hear that. I had one of these bad boys. It didnt last long though.

[GhostPoet]

don't hate...but I totally think the crazy guy in charge of sector 7 would make a great Headmaster.

[GhostPoet]

I predict that by 40...they mean a lot will be shown only briefly...possibly in a war scene.

[protocida]

Lots of them will die, that's for sure.
