    Michael Bay has responded to a comment on his Shoot For the Edit forums in response to a question if Josh Nizzi had been hired for Transformers 2. Included was a picture of Josh Nizzi's Long Haul, to which Bay said:

    "Cool, maybe for Transformers 3."

    Does this mean there is no Long Haul (and by extent, Constructicons) in Transformers 2? Or is it misinformation? View the thread here: http://www.shootfortheedit.com/forum/showthread.php?p=32979#post32979

    I'm pretty sure there won't be any Constructicons in TF2, what with Devastator being just misinformation and all.

    This doesn't mean the contructicons won't be in the movie. As a matter of fact,with the cgi models being so expensive to build, I would expect devastator being formed by three robots, no more than that because it would raise the budget on characters that would receive no characterization and minimal screen time, so it's not worth it.

    Really, his comment doesn't really confirm, deny, or acknowledge anything in any shape of form. It lacks any kind of subject, so he could be talking about the character, the designer, the concept, etc.

    I take the lack of the word "awesome" in his post to mean he doesn't actually like it.

    Eh. I wouldn't really care. I just wanna see Barricade show up in TF2. Maybe another brawl with him and Bumblebee, perhaps? Please, Bay, MAKE THAT HAPPEN AGAIN!

    Agreed... I honestly don't see it working in the context of these films myself... sure in the toons, a gestalt bot is bigger and stronger. But in these films I think it'd be ridiculous not to see the flaws with this concept (i.e. 5 robots forming one leads to major weakspots on bigger bot, etc)
