My reaction to that is, if its Ironhide... why is he black? There are red trucks all over the place, so there is no reason not to make Ironhide his original colors.

Somthing about it smacks of photo-shop. But im not sure. Also - the AutoBot emblem on the tailgate is the orgininal Autobot Emblem, not the updated one that we've seen on the wallpapers from the site, notice the missing triangle in the forehead portion.

Yeah, needless change from a marketing perspective alone. They better get the names out ahead of time.

And I don't see any reason to believe this is a fake. The Autobot symbol is different to both the original and new ones but it has weird eyes and horns like the new version.

E: The eyebrow things are also a lot larger like the new one.

I believe it's a transformer. Why else would it be towed on a flatbed truck, and I've never seen any custom rear bumpers looking like that ever before. Notice the slits in them . . . reaks of TransFormers.

This is not G1, they don't have to restrict themselves to a red truck or van or suv. I seriously doubt this is a "Movie Transformer", btw.

It's a pretty good photoshop if it's fake. I like the truck especially the rear bumper. I don't mind ironhide being a black pick-up truck, it actually suits him better.

IMO 2 answers

• It is real
• It has nothing to do with the movie.

 

[Chris B]

I think it could be real. One of the script reviews mentions Ironhide as a black pick-up, the Autobot insignia matches the movie version, and it follows the Michael Bay trend of stylized cars.

 

[Destructicus]

Its just for advertising. I guarrentee this is just like a transportation vehicle Bay and the crew use to get around to the different sets.

 

[Shinobi Rendar]

hmmm

 

[Optimus Crime]

lol shinobi beat me to it.

 

[Shinobi Rendar]

lol. I think it's pretty much confirmed that the pick up is in the film. It's probably Iron Hide.

 

[*Dead*End*]

That Pick-up truck doesn't have smokestacks behid the cab, like the supposed TF does.

 

[Shinobi Rendar]

Hmm you're right. Still, i'm 80% sure that pick-up truck could be a TF.

 

[Optimus Crime]

theirs another thing aswell you can see the gmc logo is on the left side in the other pics their on the right. aslo the wheel wells are bigger on the other transformer pic thats supposed to be iron hide....

 

[Shinobi Rendar]

65% sure now



lol

 

[Spark]

Well apart from the smokestacks it seems to be the exact same truck. Even down to the silver "trim".

 

[Hotwire]

Let's comapre them side-by-side, shall we?

These are not the same truck. The GMC logo is on the wrong side, the bumber is different, and the smokestack are missing, and no fender flairs. Sorry guys. Now it may be possible that Bumble is not the only Autobot that gets beat to s*** and rebuilt.

I also thought about that. Maybe he doesn't get his beaten so bad so they add a new back bumper and some stacks .

Ok, i'm going out of a limb here, but could it be possible that one of the images may be a mirror.

I mean where exactly is the logo suppose to be on these trucks. The logo has got to be on the same side don't they. It's kinda hard to believe they would throw the logo on the left to some trucks and to the right on
others. Do you guys know what i'm saying? lol

Sorry to double post but here's something new:
http://www.jalopnik.com/cars/top/tr...-a-gmc-top-kick-c4500-4wd-crew-cab-190726.php

I think it's a generic truck. No insignia/ no Kickass rear bumper/ it has mud flaps. It's no the same truck from the first pics we saw.
