    i think they may actually wind up being (hopefully) cool characters. any dumb accents or sayings though and i hope prime and co uses them as sacrifices to the fallen or something

    Someone sucks at photoshop. They can't really be 'twins' if they're different sizes. And then there's the whole 'ice cream truck' thing...

    I like them, perhaps that's just me and my love of twins, (Jetfire & Jetstorm, Sideswipe & Sunstreaker) but I think they'll be cool if they don't steal the spotlight with their comic relief and whatnot.

    Though seriously, what's up with their heads?

    They actually look kinda cool. I like Skids' monocle, then again I've always liked monocle bots. (TM2 Dinobot, TFA Blitzwing...) Way better than the first back-to-back picture we saw of them.

    I still can't stand those 2! Hope they die a painful death, but *sigh* they wont! I have a feeling it will be the "Bumble Bee" of this movie, just like the 2007 movie, it was all about him..... *face palm*

    BTW who designed their faces??? they should be slapped!

    Yeah, I know they are not to scale. I was attempting to be humorous by offering up to options, one of which we all know darn well is not true. Perhaps not a joke that comes across in text that well.. or the way I tried. :eek: 

    And, I also know you didn't do the photo. I saw the site tag on the image. I am guessing that most TFW2005 members, many who perhaps have never even used Photoshop, would have gotten it right on the first try.

    How does this crap EVER leave a Marketing department?

    Cant wait to see these guys on screen. I like them, and their mutant looking heads.

    Have to say I really don't like these two at all and after reading their bio's I really do fear for the film a bit. I want more robot dialog but if that means a lot of inane banter between these two I'll be peeved.

    I bet they combine to be a bad aZZ and fight devastator! I mean they are "twins" each has one bigger arm and their faces are butt ugly. Maybe they combine together and look cool?

    Actually I believe this image is from the video game if I'm not mistaken.

    Considering what we've seen in trailers, the characters we know to be in the movie and the plot as we know so far, plus the limitations of having so many robots on screen, I can't see these guys being anything else but slightly over-done background characters with maybe five minutes of actual screen time to themselves. (since they don't "do" anything, I think most of their exposure will be in fight scenes where they can clobber people with their over-sized arms)

    OOH.
    I like Skids a little better than Mudflap.
    Mudflap looks like a Picasso painting which went horribly wrong.
    Skids kinda reminds me of a dwarf in some ways.
    If he were red he could be a doofy version of Cliffjumper.
