Why are some people here saying that the ambulance/emergency truck thing could be Prowl? I've only ever known him to be a police car. Yes I know it's the movieverse and isn't tied in with any of the regular fiction but wouldn't they want to keep it as Ratchet if they are continuing on from the other 3 movies? After all he was still alive. Just for once I'd like them keep the robot cast consistent to the existing story! If they didn't get killed off in the previous movies they should appear in this one. Don't slap new guys in and drop others for no apparent reason...
I love how Bay thinks the Autobots have to be car commercials and that they can't be anything else besides fancy. Even BB is a classic car commercial now. I hope the military truck is an autobot at least. Why no Autobot tanks, dinosaurs, jets, boats, or helicopters? Why no actual in disguise Autbots?? I just don't get Bay's ego on this... people will expect something new since it's number four. I'm calling it.. this one won't do as well in the domestic box office as 2 or 3, but over seas this will kill. So many creative ways to go... yet he repeats himself. And why is the budget on this one so small compared to the others? The list: TF2. - $200 million TF3. - $195 million TF4 - $165 million.
The Military Truck is a FMTV That's not a HEMMTT. That's a FMTV, I think that extra stuff on the back maybe custom because I've not seen this variant before. It's an up armored FMTV with some extra lights in the front. I've actually always wanted to see a transformer one of these. Funny thing is back in 2004 when I was in Iraq everyone would refer to the armored LMTV and FMTV as either transformers or Optimus Prime because of the short of robotic look to them. If you look at my profile picture I have a different variation of that armored can on the FMTV's little neither the LMTV. It's funny that there's a turret on it but no shield or weapon. It would have been cooler if they at least put something on it.
I know the picture not good but I think there is two vehicles behind the Corvette, the first one I think is police car which I think is Prowl, and behind Prowl is an ambulance which Rachet. Hoping the big green guy is either Bulkhead or Hound. My question is where is Sideswipe.
If that is Ratchet, I hope he is his proper colors this time around. As for the military truck, I don't care if it's Bulkhead, Hound, or someone else. I'm just happy to see a new Autobot who isn't a car.
I iz Michael bay. I am thinks that dinosaur robitz iz really dumb (and stuff). I'z iz gone make Dino into trucks cuz that am makez lots of sense. Kthx
I actually like the fact that the Autobots are pretty much restricted to cars, with a few larger land based vehicles. It's how they were in the original 1984 line and actually what gave the name to the faction: Automobile Robots, though, of course, in the movie verse a different reason was given. The decepticon, on the other hand, turned into a variety of other things. And apart from a few inconsistant moments in MTMTE, it was established that Autobots couldn't fly while Decpticons could, which is perhaps why we haven't seen any flying autobots (though admitted the only Decepticons int he movies with flight modes have been Megatron, Starscream, Balckout/Grindor, Jetfire - technically Decepticon, and Laserbeak).
I'd say the military vehicle is hound, after all Prime needs a new second in command with Jazz and Ironhide gone. Hound really featured in the G1 show as an officer Prime could trust
I iz raging fanz. I am notz openz to news ideaz (and stuff). I'z iz gonna jumpz to conclusionz that Dino is truckz because twitter post that am makez lots kf sense. Kthx. I like winning.
Because we have nothing else to go on for now, I mean we know the vehicle modes aren't traditional and we do know the colors aren't either, but hey how else are we going to speculate? Just have fun with it, Its toys and Movies, These things are supposed to be fun! Like this: I really hope that Veyron is mirage, I would like to get a movie toy of him and I think his disappearing ability would look really cool on screen.
