Some TF2 tidbits and insight into the first film's effects. Also mention of a "geriatric robot". New character?

"Geriatric robot", eh? Does that mean we will be getting a G1 Kup type character or is he going even older to like a Alpha Trion type old robot?

Personally I wouldn't mind either type of character in the next movie.

Definetly sounds interesting. Ironhide was supposed to be the "old-timer" in the first film, but that didn't really come out in the movie (he came off as more of a cowboy type). This could unfortunetly be one of Bay's miss-information thingy's, but I'm hoping it's something that's actually true about the sequel, as an old bot would be, imo, cool to see in the sequel.

Yeah, those are the two that came to mind when I read that. Either one would be pretty interesting. I'd bet A3 would be Cybertronian in vehicle mode, somewhat like Megatron.

Black Prime...Black Soundwave...Black Incinerator...Black Taco

It sounds like there are going to be lots of 'background' robots. Possibly even civilian Cybertronians. I think we will see all sorts of cameo bots from the mention "old" bot to other things that will reflect characters we know or aspects of them.

But everything should be taken with a grain of salt, remember, Bay is at war with the TF community and planning misdirection to keep us guessing.

There will be no "Transformers: Buckets of Blood".

To be fair, Bay said he would "leak" false info. That tells me that if Bay says something openly, it's not really a leak, so it must be legit. If we get some random movie designs or script stuff just popping up online and we don't know where it comes from, it could very well be Bay misdirecting us - I think that's what he meant.

If we know it's from Bay, it's legit. If we don't know where it's from, be skeptical because it could be Bay just screwing with us.

Fair enough... That is a good point. Nothing in here sounds like misdirection, but there does seem to be a bunch of comments being made which could be legit or misdirection.
