    Did Dragonstorm in the battle scene talk at all or was it mostly roars?

    Did they reveal the name of the World War 1 Tank character? Can you describe his robot mode appearance in anyway and do you remember if he had a specific accent?

    Also, in the scene where Hot Rod appears, is he in his Lamborghini form? Or is he in his Citroen DS form?

    Did not talk or Transform, and most of what we saw at Bay's offices didn't even have him fully rendered in CGI yet. It was mostly placeholder PS2 level graphics. We did get extended versions of the "swoop in" scene from trailer tho.

    Good to see that the old Optimus truck is still hanging around somewhere. I believe I recall that one of the copies of that truck was sold at an auction.

    If they did give his name, I do not recall ATM. He just looked like a big blocky old bot. Grey/brown, rusting, parts out of wack, some fell off during transformation. I don't think he spoke.

    Thanks for the write-up. I'm definitely pumped for this one--moreso than I was prior to AoE and even DotM. The toys also have me very excited :D

    Nope, nothing to do with toys, all movie based. I did grab the Universal Studios version of DOTM deluxe bee tho while there. :)

    Yeah, this looks DOTM level focused, plus some with extended lore stuff. Hopefully it lands well and we have the odd-number success pattern. 1,3, and now 5. :)

    Any news on other returning humans like Simmons or Epps? And any other tie in stuff from other movies? Where were people getting their info that Canopy lived?

    He's a Witwiky?!

    "It has been said through the ages, without sacrifice, there can be no victory."

    "You risked your life to protect the Cube?"
    "Yeah.... No sacrifice... No victory."

    Shia confirmed for secret cameo!

    No. He talked, and didn't sound like him either.

    No other human tie ins other than Lennox and some hints at family connections.

    No direct connections in these clips to exact moments in previous movies. We did see the moon getting scraped, where it drags Sentinel Prime's ship out of the ground, but I think that was in the trailers.

    I didn't get the feeling that Canopy made it through that scene...

    This also ties into
    the old Witwicky motto: "No sacrifice, no victory."

    I know I may know the answer to this but did Slug mutter some words to the mini Dinobots or did he just grunted like an animal?

    I didn't catch any words. I think all the Dinos were in beast mode, in all manners.
