TF2 robot designs being released.

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.

Looks like Jazz is coming back, and the Chevy Trax has a godawful head. Also, the Audi seems to be the wheelfoot robot.

These are horribly blurry photos and it doesn't seem like the guy who's taking and publishing them knows what the hell he's doing. And I think I've seen that Jazz stock pic before, so I don't take this as indication of him coming back.

If he is back, though, I'll be so pissed. DEAD MEANS DEAD.

The R8 looks like Barricade, which sorta confirms the rumors of both the R8 being a decepticon and barricade returning.

I agree.

The Chevy Trax image is just to small and blurry. Can't really figure out any details other than a basic body shape. I really hope that isn't it's head... That's just terrible.

The Jazz image I'd have to agree with O6 looks to be a (rarely seen) stock image that was used back for the first movie. Although I'd also have to disagree and say I think it might suggest a return of the character...

Pulled. I think I saw the pics a while ago, but they faded from memory.

Anyone see these yet? http://www.comicbookmovie.com/transform ... ws/?a=5046

I guess it's better than a jet. I never liked Megs as a jet fighter.
But still....not wild over it.
You been Warp'd!!!

Yeah. It was mentioned in the spoiler thread.

TFW2005 has posted what could be concept art for Soundwave and Ravage. Robert Orci has said Soundwave isn't going to be a pickup truck in the movie though, so it's questionable if this is real or not.

Ravage looks like a hydralisk, it kind of creeps me out. Sounds could do with..not being black, for one, but he's certainly not terrible by any means. Kind of Soundwavey, just not as Soundwavey as I'd like. Of course, I'm a huge Sounds fan, and have a giant Soundwave duvet cover hanging on the wall of my bedroom, so there may be some bias present.

Soundwave's head really looks like Barricade to me, and despite my love for Barricade, I wouldn't call that a good thing. He's got some interesting elements in there though, especially the "Wheels turn into speakers (or whatever)" thing that TFA Soundwave has. I also like the shoulder armor a lot. Invokes Dropkick, who was one of my favorite Movie toys. Could definitely do with more blue though. And a chaingun of some sort.

I refuse to believe Ravage's transformation will work until I see it.

I'd like it more if he was just Barricade's new body.
