This is likely more along the lines of what he wanted Jazz to be in the first place in terms of size.
As for the design itself, I'm mildly glad it looks 'more robot' and 'less exo-suit'. I still don't like the design style of the Bayformers, but at least I already know what to expect with the new ones and can't be disappointed all over again.  |

Like if someone mentions they know the artist, then it's likely that person would like the picture no matter if it was horrible. There were also people during the last movie time that would argue things without any kind of reasoning. Those are the people I'm talking about. The people that say they like the design and "thing x" is cool are fine by me, it's the people that say things like I love all the movie designs so I love this one too.
Stuff above here got posted before I had finished typing. Sorry for the incomplete message being posted.
Chances are, if you got offended by me saying "Sheep", then you are a sheep. I don't like people that do things or like things not b/c they are cool or worthy of being liked, but because they feel inclined to like them from pressure.
I know I'm biased, but I am biased b/c I see things I don't like. If someone sees it and likes what they see, then that's cool. But if someone sees it, doesn't like but say they like b/c of external influence, then there is a problem. Those are the Sheep.
I know it's crazy asking on this board, but if you've got some spare TF's you wanna sell and don't want to use Ebay, ask me. I collect them. :D

If this is the 'Vette (as is seems to be) well we've seen that they are filming a silver car. It's not like they'd film a silver car and then change it digitally all for the sake of messing with the fans. Either way at least the odds are good that Hasbro would repaint the toy into something G1y for a second (3rd, or 4th) version like they did with the first film's figures.

1. Knows the artist
2. Argued in favor of the first film's designs choices
3. Liked the designs from the first movie
Is a sheep. |

#206 | | Predacon Join Date: Jun 2008 Posts: 427 | I do like the head design better than the ones in the first film. Not really sure about the design overall, but it looks more plated (less shard-like), less cluttered and more transformery (vehicle elements look more evident, like in the chest area) than the TF1 style, so that's a positive I suppose. The lower legs and feet need work.
