Australian-Created Transformer Revealed: Autobot Falcatron

Looks like G1 Skids mixed with G1 Prowl's body.

On the positive side, we now know what a WFC/FOC Prowl would look like!

The original announcement was in this news thread...sp was just waiting for the pics.

Well, this is the official pictures and that was quite a while ago.

Nah, he would've looked like this, but white and black:

When I read the title I thought this was going to be an actual toy, lol.

Put him in FOC and cast Paul Hogan as his voice.

Hey, I'd buy a toy if one was done...

And I must say, that is one awesome looking picture!

Thank you to all of those who voted in the polls on Facebook! We have a brand new Aussie TF, thanks to the cooperation of our fellow fans, Ford Australia, and High Moon Studios!

My only complaint.........

......I own the XR8

Otherwise, YEEEEEES! Finally

Was this made for fun or was there a reason? Will it be DLC or something?

wow, very slick design! Please make it into a toy, Hasbro! XD

Looks like an interesting hybrid of Skids/Prowl alright... still pretty flippin sweet tho

very cool.

It was made to help promote their cars and is nothing more than a piece of concept art.

Really like this! If that were made into a (good) toy, I'd totally buy it.

Say what you will, but the neon tubing in the hubcaps does look pretty cool.

I kinda expected this to be a wreck... but I will fess up I was wrong this is kinda awesome I'd play as it

I never knew Ford existed on Cybertron o.O

heh, that's cool, totally does look like Skids.
(also sadly somewhat confirms High Moons designs are still weak even when working from a more Earth-based alt mode ~ I wish they'd just do a game using existing G1 designs instead of their uninspired wedge vehicles and glowey triangle robots; their G1 Prime skin looks totally amazing...)

You see, that's a tale long lost to Cybertronian Lore. Back in the days before the Golden Age of Cybertron, a Cybertronian known as Henrious Fordion was the pioneer of the transformation cog assembly line and produced the first Alternate Form that was affordable and practical for the everyday Cybertronian to use. The introduction of the Model T-Cog revolutionized the evolution of Cybertron, and was the start of a long lasting legacy of the Ford T-Cog Company.

They'll go to any lengths to peddle their wares apparently.

I will happily take this model in game. Don't hold back High Moon, let us have it. More, more, MORE!!!!

Falcatron my ass, that's Skids.

Looks awesome though.

Pretty darn cool.

And I'm glad that Falcatron's character isn't necessarily a crazy Australian stereotype - Foster's, the Outback, kangaroos, "That's not a knife - THAT'S a knife," etc.

Yeah, 8/12 was a long time ago. Here's the post of the announcement.

It would be nice if a toy or a DLC existed instead of just concept art! Still, awesome!

Hey, that Falcon (Falcatron, lol?) looks pretty cool - but he would have been much cooler as a certain heavily-modified 1973 XB GT Ford Falcon!

This man speaks the truth.

All this artwork does for me is makes me want a Classics Skids. Well, that and puzzle at the perspective going on in that right leg...

Looks pretty cool, Id imagine it wouldnt be that hard to make a custom off it since the design is pretty simple.

Colors sure are pretty.

And the only character not in the game files. Should have done everyone like this.

That actually makes far more sense than it has any right to.



Skids never turned into a car this cool.

All i can say is:
LOL

Yh... thats just Alternator skids;

Next time maybe they should check to see if it is blatantly a copy of a character

That paint job will look really nice the rearview mirror of the Falcon.

You Americans are just jealous that it's Australian.

No DLC!!?!!?!?!?

Ugh, it just shows how on-disk DLC is bad, because new ideas can't be made into DLC. Except for the part where you can see others using the DLC, but that's it.

I'm a bigger fan of the XC Falcon Cobra



They are

So has anyone noticed that in almost all of High Moon's designs, the car parts on the chest horribly shrinks between the vehicle and robot modes? Its extremely noticable on Jazz, Bumblebee, and Optimus when he transforms.

This guy has the same problem and as someone else said, proves that High Moon's chunky robot designs are kind of weak.

THAT is SHARP!!

Ugh, all that hype and we get Skids? Fail highmoon, fail.

Man I'm super stoked because I've finally seen an Australian car (and a fucking good one at that) as a Transformer. This pleases me.

I agree, would've been so much cooler as a Mad Max car - but I myself like the yellow Interceptors better.

Actually, Prowl's already got concept art for WFC/FOC:

I want DLC!

That's for Prime/Universe MMO

uh oh! time paradox!!!

I love the look of this but the name is corny i think lol.. I think Falcon would have fit alot better, Falcotron sound corny ..

It's not bad but I wish his transformation/body design was different. It looks too plain with the standard "front of the car on the chest" transformation =\

& here's another Ford Australia-crossover: This one's a ute by the name of "Torque"
