    It's not uncommon to have promotional images of characters doing things they wouldn't do, in order to look "cool" or "badass" to draw in older children (or adults). Look up the infamous DreamWorks Face.

    Still, seeing someone who despined a robot cat, and blew a wannabee Shockwave's head off, it's kinda strange to see him doing the French Girls pose. I really hope this film brings BB back to his more child-like self instead of bloodthirsty warrior.

    Yeah it's a shame the figure doesn't have some more faux car parts in robot mode (I think the lower legs are meant to be the rear lights) or even a bit more dark blue so it matched the CG. A triple changer would've been great, but I suppose they'd have to compromise elsewhere like articulation or paint, or having realistic alt modes (or they'd just charge voyager price for a deluxe). Hopefully there will be a Studio Series car version (and Shatter) which has a more accurate looking robot mode.

    Yeah, I don't feel any of the poses really match with what we've seen in the trailer; I hate that cliche 'gangsta rapper' folded-arm pose.

    I miss the whole trilogys time, 2006-13 were the biggest highlights of me being a child. I really just wanna go back and ditch the present.

    While far from perfect films, the designs on most decepticons were such high quality and complex. The art team were given a lot of freedom to design the looks and unique looks.
    We're lucky Blitzwing seems to have the best look out of all the robots we've seen.
    These new cons don't bring that same excitement like when they first teased shockwave for instance. They heads are just a boring round shape. The faces are not unique at all.
    I'm more interested in possible cameos from past films, if it happens.
