    I think it would be silly not to have him in as a major part, although I am worried about him Devastator and The Fallen all trying to get decent screen time.
    Plus if I remember correctly an early rumour of Scorp giving up his spark to revive Megs could be true since we saw the 'sand clawer' in the trailer.

    Also the Galvatron thing sounds right, but i hope its not coz it means he will spend more time as Galvatron than Megatron in the movieverse.

    Bumblebee didn't have the allspark shoved into his chest and then get dumped under a mile of ocean.

    You clearly aren't familiar with the starting simalarities that would create sucha situation.
    1. G1 megs died, bayformers megs died
    2. Ancient transformer in G1 movie, ancient transformer in bayformers movie
    3. both got new alt modes

    Pretty good chance of him being Galvatron if you ask me... but then again bay has been quoted saying "the old cartoons make me sick" in an interview so who knows?

    I hope not Galvatron is such a shity name, no offence to people who like it. Plus he hasnt changed enough, and his name has been plastered and packaged as Megatron. So I hope it will stay megatron/

    Does anyone have a full picture of his new form, rather than just the snippits linked on the FP news? (I'm not expecting a CGI render but a picture of the stand would be nice.)

    Or can someone try piecing them together?

    They just look too similar. My money is on Galvatron based on the similarities and that Bay says no Megatron. Ive lost bets before but hey its a close match.

    Plot:
    After the Fallen defeated, the Earth went peace. After the credit, in the dark, there is a black tank rolling and transformed in to Megatron with Red Eyes.

    Blam!! Transformers 3: Revenge of Megatron!!!

    Haven't all the leaked toy pics (with packaging) with his new mode referred to him as Megatron?

    Meh, outside of the perspective and the smooth shape of the cannon, I see no similarities between those two pics.

    but at least galvatron in the cartoon looked different from megatron. it would be stupid to change his name when he looks identical except for the tank mode

    On one hand I can see why Hasbro would go through all this effort. They might put him in the game, and he might show up in a dream sequence or flashback, like back in Egyptian times. And hey, they're still going to release toys based on him, he's freakin Megatron!

    But on the other hand, I saw him in the trailer.

    I'm saying no to Galvatron. I'm thinking the "No Megs" statement by Bay was his big "misinformation" campaign.

    "Brawl" on packages = "Devestator" in the first movie so who knows.

    I'm still wondering how they're gonna explain that one come the second movie.

    There can be no Transformers movie/story without a Megatron.
    Anyway, I`m happy to see more of ROTF Megs

    and if you look in the trailer, he's all rusty. so I think that's because he was chillin at the bottom of the ocean for awhile.
