    It's not just driving down public roads, it was on set.

    Really? It looks like a california plate. And the final scene in bumblebee took place in cali. If anything, it proves even more that it's real, because why would a california-registered plate (that isn't indexed anywhere) be hanging around in canada?

    I'm slightly disappointed that Bumblebee is a Camaro again. I loved his Bumblebee movie design (the VW just fits the character so well) and I was hoping that he would revert back to that design. Regardless, I'm happy to have a first look at Bumblebee and am excited to see how this new car will translate to his robot mode.

    Maybe a subversion, when we first see Bumblebee we think it's the 76' Camaro that drives by, but then as it exits the frame the real Bumblebee is a 91' or 92' Camaro parked.

    Every single time, without fail.
    Also, maybe this could be Prime's robot mode?

    My opinion has always been that TLK would've been a much better movie if it was more focused on one or two storylines as opposed to the like twelve it tried to juggle. Oh well, here's hoping they work to flesh out those Writer's Room ideas more fully in the future, because they all seemed like really interesting concepts.

    If they use any of Josh Nizzi's Prime designs with yellow eyes I'll be so happy.

    God fucking damn the yellow eyes just make that design pop even harder.

    Josh Nizzi is a seriously talented man and I'd just adore seeing him give this treatment to other characters, and then they be used in a film of course because he gets it.

    I'm actually rather upset about the cancellation of the Age of Time stuff now that I've found out about it. Superior Optimus and Superior Megatron deserve to get their 15 minutes!

    Those look good, but I feel like the current Bee Optimus is already cooler than those Optimuses, if only because the shape of his legs and his gun are a lot more dynamic and badass.

    If the new Movie merely adds "proper vehicle kibble from his actual truck mode instead of random made up detailing that makes his toy impossible to engineer" to the Bee design I will already be satisfied.

    Unpopular opinion probably, but Yellow eyed Prime should become the norm again.

    It was up until 2007, and it should be again.

    It adds more visual diversity than the good guys all having blue eyes and bad guys with red eyes. I'd actually find it interesting if Megatron had blue eyes or something, like that great early concept art designs for the first movie Megs.

    I think the reason it's fallen out of favor is more of a standardization across the board. Autobots typically have blue eyes (good), Decepticons have red eyes (evil), neutral parties can be assorted but are usually yellow.

    They should just make the decisions on the eyes based on the colours chosen for the rest of the bot, like Prime having yellow eyes to break up all his blue.

    From what I've heard it's actually similar to that.
