I thought it was going to be the G2 tank mode, but that is cool. Like an insane Tankor from hell. I must admit the toy will be sweet.

 

Oh, HOLY. FREAKING. CRAP.

That is awesome.

 

DAMN it, I was just going to post that we'd gone through six pages of posts without someone saying "are we sure this isn't Bay's misinformation?" and then you came along and wrecked the curve.

If I hear the "misinformation" line one more time, my head may friggin' explode.

Proud of the rest of y'all who didn't go there, though.

 

better than the jet, but not excited. I can image it now, Megatron in tank mode lurking toward Prime and they are having some sort of debate, with Megatron's head yelling at him. So pathetic.

 

true i suppose, just a pet pieve having the head mode visable. i dunno always kind of looks half transformed imo. i do like the tank mode tho, feels more like megs

 

 ...woah...awesome

 

its very possible that there never has been any mis-information, bay just saying there is and that there will be lots of it puts a big question mark over everything we see leaked. which means it is easier to keep everything under wraps because even if it is real people will chalk it up to being fake.......if that makes sense. quite a good idea though.

 

That is awesomely creepy! This movie is getting more epic looking every day!

 

Nice Cybertronian Alt mode. Too bad the robot mode doesn't look better...

 

Wow! looks great!

 

Yeah, I heard that RUMOR somewhere.... can't remember where I heard it though.

I'm pretty impressed by the new "Tank Megatron". More closely fits with the original Megs... but still, an Earth mode would've been cool.

I love the tread on that tank though.  

 

My only beef with it is that that cannon is freakin thin and small, compared to what G1 Megs, Galvatron or even the various G2 Megatrons had. I guess Movie Megs will always have 'small cannon' syndrome when he goes to meet his predecessors...  

 

I like the tank.. yall get over the head showing because I have one thing to say to help "ALIEN FRAKKIN TANK!" Megs does not need an earth mode.. Period.. I like it.. I'd like to see him in action.. I like to see this thing pancaking cars in the streets of a city and blowing things up. (which is of course why it exists right?)

The main point of megs isn't about alt mode, it's always been overlord and evil.. who the frack cares if we only see this for 5 seconds on screen?
In Hollywood on sets on props often there are so many details on an object we never see. Perhaps it's filmed so we never see the head.. personally I could care less, but the robot asthetic crowds have never owned an armada megs, or seem to have forgotten that toy (which seems like a similar mode)

 

Awesome sawce! The arrangement of the treads reminds me of Animated Shockwave.

The tank works great for Megatron, but it's kinda unusual why he'd transition from jet to tank and lose the advantage of flight. Then again, he'd probably still be able to fly in robot form anyway, so that makes up for it.

Speaking of which, he looks like he still has jet/rocket thrusters in the back - do I smell a movie-verse Triple Changer?

 

Yeah, I have to say. Did it ever cross anyone's mind that Michael Bay's AWESOME™ Misinformation Campaign which some people still believe in has reached amazingly huge dimensions by this point? Forging a fake call sheet, hauling fake prop vehicles across the continent just to back up the call sheet, having IDW writers utter fake statements in interviews and then later have the sites that posted those interviews remove those statements, forging complex designs and then unleashing the lawyers to have them pulled... For someone who's as rigid about budget as Bay is (remember, for the first movie he was more than happy that General Motors were providing him with vehicles, which saved him $3 million from his budget), this must be one hell of an expensive misinformation campaign just for the sake of fooling the interwebs.

IMDB.

 

His bot mode is still kinda iffy but damn that is a nice alt mode!!

Transformers fans are fucking paranoid.

 

okay so now that i have recovered from my shock of awesomeness i have one thing to say: i think his head showing isnt that big of a deal considering it blends in with the rest of the mode it isnt like the first movie megs who had a big stub in the middle of his jet mode this one is low to the ground and like i said it blends in with most of the other plates surounding it

 

I thought for sure they would use an Earth form, and bring Frank Welker in as the voice. Much like when Megatron was redone as Galvatron and his voiced changed, then it changed again in the series after being brought back from Char. I figured the allspark would have damaged or altered his configuration. Anywho?

 

Weird, I kinda like it

 

Oh my!!
