    @full.tang.halo:


    Old die-cast metal transformers def win over new will break at any moment plastic ones.


    @Chip Chanko: No toy was 100% but I will take the first gen part metal Transformers, the second (?) gen Gi Joes (the smaller, less Barbie scale ones with ENDLESS characters, accessories, weapons, vehicles, etc...) over the garbage they are pushing out now.

    @OMG! Ponies!: I keep thinking, "There's one too many robots there."


    I'm sorry guys, but All of the combining Transformers were based upon the 5 person team format. Not 6.


    What I want to know is whether or not Omega Supreme will show up, since he's their rival.

    I think I've seen that guy at the gym.

    Lay off the bench and do a leg press now and then Devastator.


    Those tiny little legs just make you look silly.

    The more I look at the movie conceptual art, the more I think they took one of those screaming squeeze balls, jammed some glow sticks up its ass, and attached it to a Big Daddy from Bioshock.

    A rendering of what Devestator could've looked like in the movie had Bay not F'd up the designs:



    I prefer this one over that Emmerich-Godzilla-looking one.

    I'm not going to compare them. They are both great. Comparing these two incarnations of Devastator would be like comparing the outfit Adam West wore as Batman in the original series to the suit Christian Bale wears for Dark Knight. You just can't!

    @Kaiser-Machead: I loves me some LOTR, but seriously the entire movie was about people walking, or whining about walking, or whining while walking.


    At least star wars featured people whining before force choking someone.

    New Devastator has so many separate parts. If Transformers 2 is anything like Transformers 1, the camera will be zoomed in all the time and we will have no idea what is going on.

    I have to say left. I liked the old Transformers. They looked good when they transformed. Even if they would just skin the newer ones, they would look better. Given how flimsy modern cars are, I have trouble believing they can take the abuse they do w/all the exposed parts.

    @ChinaDeathBus_GitEmSteveDave: But they're not real cars--they're robots in disguise! So the exposed parts are probably made of adamantium...or... something.

    I'm going to toss out my sense of purism, throw on my flame suit, and say that I prefer the one on the right. I just like crazy ass robots, even if it IS guided by an ADD-ridden shimmering road-skimming, camera panning-happy, Victoria's Secret commercial-directing purveyor of pyrotechnic puffery.

    @shopperciti.com: Clarification: For cinema's sake, I'd rather have the one on the right. The one on the left is just too 80's blocky throwback to properly translate to a live action flick. That said, I'd rather have a toy of the one on the left. It's iconic Transformers. I'd take the plain red, flat-faced Optimus Prime truck over the flame-covered one.
