    Oh, I imagine it won't be long now. Word seems to travel fast amongst that group of people.

    I do wonder if Blitzwing will be a Triple-Changer now or not. I also wonder if they're going with an idea that Blitzwing is/was a member of the Seekers before becoming a Triple-Changer?

    Can you imagine a Martin Short voice.



    Plus do you predict a Voyager?

    I guess it's a bit of a match.

    Would you like his multiple personalities?

    Why can't they ever just get it right...SMH. It's like they don't even pay attention to the lore. Jeezus.

    Some people legitimately complain no matter what.

    Blitzwing, wow, now that's an angle I didn't expect. Mm, very nice. Given the overall look of him, lacking tanky features compared to how the other 'cons have elements of their third mode, I wonder he's a plain jet this time or if his jet mode twists into a tank-like form, wings folding into a shell and the nosecone expanding/splitting into the cannon.

    I feel like scrolling through some Transformers Animated fanart for this reveal.

    I won't lie, Blitzwing totally kills my hype to see this movie.

    The nameslaps were one of my issues with the original movies. To get a blatantly Starscreamish design and have Blitzwing nameslapped is concerning. If you don't respect the lore enough to KNOW fans are going to see Starscream in that design, and expect him, I've little interest.

    Different director, but same movie series it seems.

    Marvel isn't winning because they make the greatest movies ever, it's simply because they meld old lore with new ideas and they add details.

    Nothing about this design says Blitzwing, and for me, if we're starting AGAIN with poor attention to lore, details and the overall fandom, I'll likely vote with my wallet.

    I hope I'm wrong and it's a fantastic movie, but I'm likely going to skip this till it's free. I'd rather it flop and we abandon movie Bee and all these half assed attempts to cash in g1 nostalgia. Maybe then we could have a legit good movie series in 5 years to a decade.

    Still plenty of time to change the colour from bits of red to Purple on him...

    Again proves my point of Paramount handling the so-called reset of the franchise. This nameslapped move shows again that Lorenzo and his cronies has still very much influence over the BB movie. Nothing will change unless every one of Bay's minions are removed from the studio.

    next time: a very G1-ish Prowl design will named Brawn, a G1-ish Sunstreaker will be named Warpath, a G1-ish Grapple will be named Cosmos, and a G1-ish Ultra Magnus will be named 'Superion Prime'

    not surprising really.

    There's no Lorenzo on the panel.... At least Travis is aware about the disappointment.

    Also if Bay was really involved, why would Travis Knight make fun of the robots being incoherent radio shacks doing Kama sutra? He'd be slapped across the face right after that comment.... I think Bay has moved on and is preppring for Six Underground.

    Hint: What if the final shot of the movie has the Seeker has his colour scheme change into purple and the tank parts are added in later on? Is that why the other 2 Decepticons are Triple Changers as well?

    You don't remember this do you?

    People mention Setinel's colour scheme changing - but I doubt that was to make him look anything like he did before - he was orange in the comics and blue in the Animated cartoon.

    I'm basing this on the idea that some things you see in trailers aren't always there for the final movie. Like this scene for instance.
