Love the ice cream concept, as long as the robot is badass. Not every character has to have a super sports car, super sleek jet or a crazy armored tank alt mode.

And I'm now voting Twin Twist and Topspin as the twins.

Yes its an icecream truck but still it could have been a surprise laugh when the movie airs.

The following link was frontpaged several weeks (perhaps months) ago:

Transformer World 2005 - Transformers News - No Movie Stories

It takes you to the frontpage, minus the movie news.

You can also find the link on the right side of the frontpage, on the "News Links" menu.

Hopefully this is more of the bullcrap news that Bay is spoon feeding us. Unless its a really badass Transformer(s) in robot mode, its a terrible idea. Hopefully the twins can split up, instead of being attached to one another like Rack 'n' Ruin.

Better not be a crapload of humans this time around, moar robots! It's called Transformers, not The Happy Times of Sam Witwicky.

According to the leaked call sheet, they do split up.

I could easily see this being done for a teaser. Having it setup as an icecream truck driving around with no apparent purpose and the audience not knowing what the hell this trailer is for, then at the end it sees something (a decepticon or whatever in vehicle form) and takes off after it. The audience would still be like "WTF?", but then you hear a transformation sound and... well, you see something that makes everyone know it's transformers. Otherwise, they're probably going for the archetypical humorous side character. (which would probably mean that they'd be spending way too much of the budget on a character nobody will like)

Okay, that's good. Don't read too much movie info, so I didn't know.

I'd much prefer for the first idea to be the actual one but im assuming it's the latter, but hey ya never know it may not be as bad as everyone is thinking.. could be kinda funny
