Money, violence, sex, computer graphics, scatalogical humor, racism, robots designed to be rednecks but given European accents, and maybe another sequel to the saga... what's not to love? TF m1, Revenge of the Fallen, Dark of the Moon and now Age of Extinction.

Seriously, if the latter half of the movie is just a resurrected, on-fire Megatron running around screaming, knocking stuff over, I'll be totally down for it.

Giant, spiky, robot satan going around on fire screaming? There's nothing I don't like about that idea. Though, if he's gonna be screaming for any length of time, then they should probably give Weaving the boot and get Mike Patton to do the voice work.
I am so glad we are all on the same wavelength, here. Although for the record I'm thinking of the fire guy from the Impossible family in Venture Bros more than Major Tom, but he's appropriate too.
We should be discussing what we DON'T want to happen. Because we all know, now that we all want nutty burning zombie Megatron, it won't happen. Probably instead we'll have Samurai Grimlock and non-transforming Insecticons.
Nah, they already confirmed, No Grimlock. And I wouldn't chalk that up to the "disinformation campaign" because that doesn't make sense--the idea is to say random crap 'is' in the movie, and not that random crap 'isn't' in the movie.

People spend so much time worrying about whether a figure is "mint" or not that they never stop to consider other flavours.

Well, I'm satisfied! They could have all the non-transforming Insecticons they want, or have Unicron show up voiced by Michael Bay himself, and this movie will 'still' not be as bad as I worried it could have been.

Well they say right on the page I linked to "We here at TFormers think that this is pure fan art."
However, as far as I've seen, there hasn't been any official announcent yet about whether it's real or just fan art.
EDIT: Scratch that... A look at the underside of of an upcoming toy (probably a kids meal thing) appears to confirm the design as official.

I'd consider that a pretty uninspired design. Hooray, another grey and black robot, it may as well be Jazz again. Considering how little the first movie focused on the robot modes for budget concerns and X-Treme shakey camera kewlness, I'm doubtful one would be able to tell the immediate difference. Were Jazz not dead, anyway.
Well I dig the wheels and the swords, but it *badly* needs a better color scheme. We haven't even seen the real toy of this thing, and I'm already anticipating the repaint...
