Transformers at the Cinema Expo International 2008

GM at the Cinema Expo International 2008 in Amsterdam,
showing the H3 on a platform with some interesting Transformers logos
sorry about the poor quality…




formerly known as "Lt.Col Alexander Powers" but the sig is just too damn long,
and the guy is a useless bum...

If the H3 is a new Transformer, I doubt Ratchet is returning. Don't think the movie guys would be happy having the H2 and H3 in the movie as Transformers. Then again, Ratchet is modified enough with the emergency gear.

I think you could be right, with Ratchet modified like crazy an H3 would be different enough to put in there as say an updated alt mode for someone like Hound.

Plus with gas prices up all over the world I'm sure GM doesn't mind the Hummer getting any positive light it can get right now. I'm thinking Autobot though since last movie they brought in a Ford to be the Decepticon while the Autobots were mostly GM products.

It's probably Ratchet with a few upgrades.
I really wish they ditch the "this movie is a giant GM car ad" bit though -_-

Again, Bumblebee should have been a Dodge Superbee.... grrrr

I agree that it may be Hound. While noto military green, a black H3 as Hound would be SWEEEET, as long as the transformation style was significantly different than ratchets. Maybe have his cab become feet, his head from the rear, etc.

I'm not so sure. The H3 is a smaller Hummer model than the H2, so its more of a downgrade if anything. Plus, he'd be doing away with all of the rescue equipment and motif. A plain black H3 does seem that fitting for a medic.

It's possible these are just stand-ins for whatever color H3 will be featured in the movie. Then again, I wouldn't see GM displaying just any H3 there. That wasn't their style in the past. They've typically only displayed the ones that look like the ones from the movie.
