Speaking of, we need Blaster. You ever see the video 'The Rude Awakening of Optimus Prime'? Blaster was fucking cool. Hell, Blaster was always fucking cool.
If there was a sequel, and they made both Soundwave and Blaster work, I would get down on my knees and praise Michael Bay's name. Heck, make Soundwave a hummer with a ridiculously huge soundsystem or something.
There would be scope for their alt-forms to return to their sigint origins, too - some kind of EW system, or a C3 trailer, or something. They were never mobile anyway.

You see, that would work. Though I just want them to roll out and try and funk each other to death with enormous speakers.
I thought it would be cool if Soundwave were an AWACS. Sure it wouldn't be classic, but it would fit the theme of the character. Plus, he'd be huge.

Thats what I was hoping for also. It fits the Decepticon = Military, fulfills his role as mobile C&C base, and he gets to be a flyer.
Not having seen these closeups of the Transformers eyes, but reading what you guys have written, I have in my mind Johnny 5's eyes from Short Circuit. Am I way off in my cloudy mind?

I think the size would probably be a problem - Wouldn't an AWACS make him even larger than Starscream, and possibly the largest transformer at more than 12 meters? I don't know enough about military hardware to know if there's EW/AWACS stuff that's more around the size of everyone else.

Soundwave is also a stealth fighter looking thing as one of the later toys. Cybertron I believe. It actually has some nice homages to the G1. And its bomb turns into Laserbeak.
And damn, no wonder Optimus wears a face mask. He's fugly.

Well at least he has a face that looks like it might actually show some emotion. It could be worse, he could have a completely rigid face like Bumblebee.

Sure, but I don't mind.
Someone above me noted that there might be smaller AWACS planes. Or just some kind of Wild Weasel.

Cause when the twister went through the junkyard and formed them they suddenly had working mouths. See, evilution is true.
If Primus exists in the movie, it could be because they were made in his form, and for whatever reason he had a mouth too. Maybe they need to ingest something to survive? Or like Bender, alcohol fuels their power cells.
Bumblebee's head is damaged: I shit you not, he's had his mouth torn out so he can't talk. It's not the best example. Are there shots of his 'battle mode' head?

I was listening to the trailers, everytime they transform it's like this "bwuuudoop" low, low bass sound. I think that's supposed to be the new transformers sound, but i sounds like a far underwater.
Wkipedia however says the original transfomers sound will be in the movie...so heres hoping thet ditch the "flatulent cyborg in a pool" sound.
I'm just glad the CGI looks so great. It really does, you can tell they spent time on that. Some movies i can smell the CGI, this looks much more...uh, "realistic" (as realistic as a forty foot transforming robot can obviously ) compared to those.
Holy shit. I just noticed that the movie will have Skorponok. Freaking Skorponok.

Is that the Russian name for Scorpionok?

They are really just using the Scorponok name for a random scorpion-shaped robot who kills people. He's in several of the trailers.
More like "Beast Wars" Scorponok than the original, only even less smart.
