    I’m honestly hoping this movie is at the very least better than every Michael Bay Sequel after the 2007 movie, but I know that’s pretty much wishful thinking at this point since we haven’t seen much

    I myself don't see it being better than 1-3, but it will for sure be better than 4-5

    Actually if it isn’t better than 2 I’d have a problem, that movie and 5 were the worst the bayverse had to offer

    Oh I understand. My love for ROTF seems to be rather unpopular on these boards. Agreed on 5 though.

    I personally think it’ll be better than all Bay films by default. The question is will it be better than Bumblebee. The action will most likely be better but what about story? Only time will tell.

    I’m gonna lol when folks change their tune on new Wheeljack. He’s a cutie and I’m betting his character will be fun.

    I just wish I thought Prime looked good. Combining his TF1 robot mode and his BeeMovie robot mode more evenly would have salvaged this whole mess. But oh well…しょうがないね:rolleyes:

    Prime is so weird to be because everyone has really fun designs imo.. except him, the main guy lol. I love Arcee’s design and Bumblebee has a nice upgrade and blend of all of his movie designs, but prime just looks off. It’s not even a horrible design really, it just lacks color and has goofy looking proportions. I’d still like to see more of it in action thought before I judge too much.

    Agreed. It’s just so plain and a clear downgrade of his BeeMovie design. Seeing it in motion and in fight scenes may change my mind on him but rn his design is lacking imo.

    I honestly hope I do. So far his design has been the most disappointing part for me BUT I am very open to see what he is like in the movie itself.
    Plus for all I know the design(head) might grow on me aswell. I am legitimately excited for his toys though, the deluxe looks fantastic for what it is and I hope the SS follows suit.

    I've seen a few theories that they could be autobots, specifically mirage, arcee, and wheeljack.

    I know the ragin nation isn't reliable or anything but in his latest video he kind of did say something about those three meteors. He said something like well these three landed in the water they didn't cause any sort of damage but if it was bad guy they be damaging shit lol. But who knows

    Definitely the Terrorcons.
    There is evidence for it being the Terrorcons: disregarding the number of meteors, these meteors are seen landing in the city and into the water. The scenes before this show that the first encounter with Terrorcons are at a museum in the city (with the bridge visible in the distance during the scene where Scourge is electrocuting Bumblebee).

    I mean the scene just shows them landing in the water, it's possible they will wreak havoc on the city once they've emerged from the water.

    You know I used to hate the Scourge design but I'm starting to warm up to it based on this picture. Still could be a lot better but the toy at least looks cool. It might just be the lighting but I feel like the head design looks way worse in live action. In the end though I'm fine with change as long as it's not bad change like making Blitzwing look like Starscream for no reason. But I would say that this is far from bad.

    I think the head is way more proportional in live action. The toy for some reason gives me tarn and mummy combo vibes.

    His head area kinda looks like the benmummy

    I think scourge's neck area looks better proportionally in live action

    In the trailer he didn't look as detailed as this. I was unimpressed with how he looked. Very generic.
