Looks pretty bad.

 

It's because they went with the Dreads from DOTM transformation. Everything folds in on itself rather than everything staying on the outside of the TF to be seen.

 

That silver guy fighting Bumblebee... could he be that silver Astro-Martin? He's too unique to be one of the Traxs'

 

No its not that... the cg looks so plain and unfinished, the lighting and everything sucks. It doesn't look as photorealistic as Hound. It reminds me of the superbowl trailer.

 

I think he may be cyclonus, or at least the helicopter bot. Look at his shoulders those pod things remind me of a helicopter. The design he was based on has a whip/claw thing that looks like they could be the rotors. Plus the design took a lot of inspiration from copters.

 

 
Ironhide?

 

Ironhides voice was perfect for him, he needs to sound big and tough, it's his character, and if the comic is considered cannon, was actually a decepticon at one point.

To be honest for me it was Ratchet, it was so inconsistent, in the first and second film it's fine, DOTM it's just....Off. like it was higher pitched.

 

Ironhide was never a Con. Read here. http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Ironhide_(Movie)

 

Although the copter used in the movie was a dark grey, while the Con/human-built is white/silver.

 

You might be right, but he would have to be a tiny helicopter. I've been thinking recently that this might be a beast machines type situation with the three generals Galvatron, stinger, and cyclonus in charge of the three vehicon classes trax, pagani, and futuristic helicopter.

 

Anyone have a really good cap of Optimus riding Grimlock? The two from the main page cut off Grimlock and Prime is blurry

 

Red Trax = Vehicon.

Stinger = Stinger.

Trax = mass produced vehicle.

Pagani Huayra= less than 30 made per year, all by hand.

And that black and yellow symbol you keep saying is because of unfinished CGI? Yeah. That's the international symbol for radioactive. Attached to a transformer body-part made out of material we already know is radioactive. In a transformers production facility. Where you would think there would be unfinished parts. So, fail.

If you're going to speak like you know things and use it to fuel your argument that we're being fed a bunch of crap unfinished CGI, you should probably at least put in the effort to check that the things you say aren't easily verified as crap.

 

Ooh yeh he was just part of a military group lead by Megatron, and as this group became more deceptiocn in nature he left, my bad, misread it xD

 

It might be just me but the green computer looks kinda like Pac-Man.

The shot of Lockdown is definitely well done.

 

That BM idea would be something I would like to see in the movie. It wouldn't bother me if it wasn't in though.

 

Do you mean this? Coz that's not whats on that leg.

It might mean radioactive. But that's speculation. Same as a suggestion it could be a production marker for CGI.


If the international sign for radioactive hazard has changed, I'll put my hands up. But right now they're in my pocket... well, after I finish writing this they will be!  

 

I really, really hope he turns on the humans in the movie.

Most likely he does, but still.

 

He speaks the truth, its actually this:

Its used on crash test dummies for those not familiar with this symbol. Perhaps its meant to show that the different Galvatron parts/his entire body are in a sort of testing phase?

 

That face has "will turn on my makers who had no idea the evil they were creating" written all over it!

 

Ahh! I was sure I'd seen it before. Googling "black and yellow hazard symbol" didn't find it!
