Am I am not a huge movie guy. But this is like the the only movie I have looked forward to in a really long time.
-
They forgot to put one year before the days because this thing comes out in 2007. There would have been an actual trailer 23 days before the release date.
-
You got to check this out if you have'nt seen it before.

A new movie trailier has been released. From a quick glance, they look more like LEGO BIONICLES. :shifty:

Yep, the designs are pure ass, the toys are decent and from what I hear, the script focuses on Spike... or rather, Sam Witwicky and his quest to get the cheerleader to notice him, while giant robots fight in the background...
I'm not looking forward to this one at all.
I pretty much knew the movie was doomed from the moment Michael Bay was announced as director, though.

The second trailer has been out for over a month. It still leaves me cold. The robots are what should be selling this movie. And I hardly saw enough. Instead I see way to many humans and a love story developing (honestly, guys don't care about this). But I am going to see the movie. Peter Cullen is just Prime. And Frank Welker as Megatron will be a bonus if he gets on board.
As for the toys, you may have seen them on other boards

And a couple days ago, Hasbro offically lauched the protoforms of Prime and Starscream.

Those protoforms remind me of those toys that transformed from rocks to men. Oh man I can't remember what they were called.
And whats up with starscreams face?

Bay wants "his" Transformers to look as alien as possible.

Honestly, I think they should pull the old Takara engineers back out of retirement, to show these new guys how to design TFs.
I don't collect them, but i still have all my original G1s, and all the new ones look like cheap, brittle, POS. I guess thats what you
get from recycled becker's milk jugs now of days.

....
You do realize, of course, that the original G1s were like twenty times more brittle than any TF on the market today?
-
Yep. Modern transformers have pop joints. That way if you force too hard, the piece will come out but in a way that can be safely reattached. Plus modern Transformers have some very creative transformations. Sideways, the Decepticon double agent that has infultrated the Autobots, turns from a stealth bomber to a samurai, both of which look awesome.
-
No i did'nt, I never broke any of my G1's as a kid, and the new one's I was checking out, popped apart alot. Obviously that was suppose to happen.
I guess i'm only a fan of the originals. I just find there to be more quality to the originals, as like the old Joe toys.

Were the toy your are think of from He-Man (Comet Warriors).
From what I have read, Starscreams face has a red dye for anti-theft purposes. Whatever.
-
Ya I think so. Man its been so long.
-
I swear those guys were called something like "Stonedar" and "Rock On" or something like that.
-
Those two were from Masters Of The Universe.
The other 'Rock Transformers' you're thinking of were called ROCK LORDS.
....and they were sweet!

The sweetest being that the rock that turns into a warthog. Or a rock with a snout, depending on how you look at it.
I might be wrong, but weren't Rock Lords the reimagining of the Go-Bots?

No, they were from a Machine Robo subline called Ganseki Chojin. I believe some of them made it to the Revenge Of Chronos anime.

Gobots indeed had the Rock Lords. I use to have a guy named Boulder:

I remember watching an empisode of the Go Bots where they met the Rock Lords.
I only ever had the Jet from the Go-Bots line, never really thought much of them.
On the topic of Go-Bots, about a year ago I saw an animation clip of Go-Bot Sex from the cartoon - three guys jumpt the jet guy, and force him to the ground to place some sort of brain device to the back of his head - rather than describe it, I am going to google to look for it, and post the link below.

That female race car reminds me of the Baroness

Rock Lords was it's own stand alone toy line however.
