    I believe so, I wouldn't be surprised if they are teased in the opening scene then appear 5-10 minutes before the final battle with a rushed explanation of them being Autobots who landed on Earth eons ago - hence their alt modes.

    Has anyone noticed how about 20some cars have been seen on the set of the movie since the filming started,could all this possibly be more characters in the movie of maybe 30 or so for each faction.I would flip if the Autobots had 25 or 30 actual characters.I sure hope we do get that many so Optimus and Bee are not the screen hogs.

    Now......how will a director known for giving the transformers little to no dialogue and just tons of action scenes, screw up characters who require little to no dialogue and tons of action scenes?

    Yes you certainly were. Yet another example of China blatantly ripping off everybody elses design language :/ Looks so much like a Buick that I was completely fooled.

    "Optimus Prime and Bumblebee will have multiple appearances, much like an actor changes outfits."


    I guess this confirms that the old truck is one of OPs appearance looks in the movie. And thinking about it, just maybe that old VW Bug we seen on the truck trailer with the old cab over might actually be another appearance change for bee in the movie lol. But its looking like Bee and OP will for sure ave at least 2 different looks in the movie.

    I'd like to at least see it explained where they all went from DOTM and see them rescan from their DOTM looks to the older looks in the beginning of the movie.

    I doubt beyond belief that that Santa Claus head-on-a-stick is Grimlock,for god sake could you just imagine Grimlock going from a fierce decepticon trashing creature to a Jolly Old Saint Nick Robot,can anyone say Ultimate Betrayal?,I am sure Bay would be running away as fast as he could to get away from the mob trying to string him up for doing that to Grimlock.

    No I don't think its Grimlock but it could be someone like (forgive me) Ultra Magnus,I just meant it could be any character not specifically UM so don't flame me for mentioning it. Actually I hope that head-on-a-stick ends up being a decepticon so one of the Bots can rip his face apart.And finally even tho there's been no mention of this (yet) but I hope we get to see some integrated lines in TF4 like have an obvious beast wars character like Cheetor or Rhinox make a small appearance (not long maybe 10 or 15 seconds),as I would freak the hell out if we seen that in the movie.

    None. People are just being random now. Nothing to see, move along.

    I just hope that the Dinobots are actually THE Dinobots and not vehicles that transform into dinosaurs.

    :lol 

    My interpretation of di Bonaventura's quotes are that there will be at least one Chinese Transformer, presumably working in China/with the Chinese. Which, awesome if that's the case. The international box office is a huge factor now, and given the methodology of Pacific Rim (include other nations in a worldwide incident!), it only makes 100% sense.

    They're going to be dinosaurs for a few reasons: 1) ILM will love the project 2) We have had TFs that don't transform into vehicles in all 3 movies: Frenzy, Ravage and Laserbeak 3) Them not being dinosaurs makes them being Dinobots redundant 4) Bay may not find some areas of TF lore appealing but even he knows when something is important to fans (look now at DOTM and the fan nods e.g. Optimus' trailer)

    Last but not least, many people here are under the impression that the Dinobots will be cars because of the glaringly obvious fact that there aren't any dinosaurs on set. They will be completely CGI unless they build parts for scenes like they did Megatron and Bumblebee in TF1 and then the Decepticon ship in TF3. It's like how non-TF fans complain about how we find out the vehicles first before seeing the bot modes.
