Jazz is ripping in two peices by Megatron in the first film.

 

There was a smudge spotted on the Icecream Truck.

 

An HQ of that would be sweet! anyways, does anybody think this cover with the "tricked out cars" make this look like some crazy street racing movie? lol

 

thanks. i haven't even read reign of starscream yet.

 

i can't believe arcee's in the movie and i think her concept is fricking awful. i know WHY she's in the movie, but at least her alt form could have been something less lame. 

 

I'm actually pretty cool with this, so far.

I'll just be happy if Bay realizes that "black people antics" aren't as funny as he thinks they are.

 

looks good. 

 

Maybe Arcee isn't herself a combination of three bikes. Perhaps tf2 will feature Arcee, Moonracer, and Chromia (or some other female transformers) as combining triplets?

It just doesn't make design sense that one robot would be made out of three differently-colored, but same-shaped vehicles. Especially since they already designed Arcee, made toys for her, and featured her as a *single* character in "Reign of Starscream."

 

Does anyone else get Blurr from the Silver car?

 

But Bay is the director and can do what he wants, especially since she was not in the first film. Reformatting into separate machines isn't uncommon though; Optimus and Ultra Magnus were robots who could separate into a truck robot and a telepathically connected trailer/car carrier.

 

Until I see toy prototypes, I can't imagine three motorbikes looking good trying to connect them into one bot, how would that work, a main body and two huge arms?

I think its Arcee and two other females that came with her, after all the original Arcee design was one bike, and the toy was one bike, why would they change that?

I would rather see three female autobots, to give the guys some relaxation after battle ;P

 

Seriously? That's like saying that TF1 had "Anaconda" elements because Jon Voight was in the movie.

 

The comic book writers claim they stay very close to the scripts though, so if Arcee was on bike/bot I think that should be continued as such.

Magnus Trailer didnt disappear like Optimus, it became his armor.

 

So there's no chance that she could have gotten an upgrade in between Reign of Starscream and whenever she first shows up as three bikes?

Maybe this Transformers: Destiny (alliance and defiance) is going to explain what happens to her?

 

This is so cool

 

Comic books and movie production are bound to be disjointed guys. When Reign Of Starscream whas being written I bet IDW didn't even know there whas going to be a sequel, even if, much less what the script whas like.

The desicion to work the offscreen toys into the story I think whas mostly for fun and now one of the reasons (the other I guess would be because ROS worked well overall) why they need two miniseries to clear the plate so it all matches up in the ROTF comic adaptation.

It will be interesting to see how they manage it. But there seems to be mystic powers floating about from the solicits and mystic powers allways means that accidents happen.

Not all combining robots follow the body - limb pattern man. Think Dangaioh or Aquarion.

I'd guess one bike is legs (probably purple), one is stomach and arms (lavender) and one is chest, head and back (pink).

 

actually more like nine original concepts showed her to be nine feet.

 

Are you serious? They wrote the damn thing off the script.

 

A smudge that was clearly a Decepticon sigil.

 

They had to change things because the movie crew found the original outline too close to the sequels plot. But I doubt they could foresee Arcee splitting in three.

Hadn't they also introduced her in the first movie prequel series as well, running around on Cybertron with Bumblebee?

The two ROTF prequel series are written based on the script though. If the retracted Comicon stuff is still true. So you are right, but there is still a bit of a hickup.

Either way I'm not complaining or being disatisfied about anything. Things happen in big projects.
