The new Transformer's movie is looking to have seven each of bots and cons. My question is, of all of the bots and cons that you have seen, which seven bots and seven cons do you want to see in this film?

My picks (I have no idea if these images will work):


Autobots, following the "no flight" rule:

1) Optimus Prime



The one and only. As he should look.

2) Ironhide



He's a warrior. A great warrior.

3) Jazz



Not many Autobots can piss Prime off. Jazz is one of them.

4) Bumblbee



Bumblebee is small, but he's relentess.

5) Hot Rod (Rodimus)



Call him Rodimus. The young warrior. Someone has to almost get himself killed. Other than Ironhide.

6) Kup



An old bot from pieceful times. Older than everyone, including Optimus. He's got lots of stories. Have him be a mentor to Prime in his early days, and now a mentor to Rodimus. Have him fight to keep Ironhide's reckless attitude from rubbing off on Rodimus.

7) Arcee





Go with the new, Energon look for Arcee. The bike, with the bowcaster. Being a smaller bot, like Bumblebee, she can better interact with the Humans.


Decepticons


1) Megatron



This is by far the best Megatron has ever looked. None of the other variations can hold a candle to this. I have no idea how to explain him turning into a gun, but he's a gun, or a canon. As long as he looks like this in robot mode.

2) Soundwave



Again, no idea how he shrinks. He just looks cool. Oh, and decepticons cheat, so he's packing at least Lazerbeek and Ravage. Although, may as well throw in Frenzy and Rumble while we're at it. There isn't all that much character to develop, and that makes Soundwave 5 Cons in 1. Plus, I can never get enough of Bumblebee vs. Ravage. He hates that dog.

3) Starscream



Starscream is the biggest pain in Megatron's ass plate. And he's also a hell of fighter. Bubmlebee goes way back with him, too, if I'm not mistaken. So does Jazz.

4) Thundercracker



5) Skywarp



6) Thrust (I'll try and get the image later.)

7) Blitzwing





The tripple changer. Tank. Jet. Robot.





But they crash in...


Decepticons

Cyclonus







Autobots

Jetfire





These spaceship transformers should be big. Massive, actually. Keep them out of it until the end. All suspenseful, especially when Cyclonus becomes fully futional first. Then, have Jetfire kick his ass. But, Jetfire should have the usual energy problems, to make things more difficult.


OK, so I broke the rules and threw in a giant transformer just for the hell of it. Who doesn't like giant transformer battles?

Volkswagon isn't going to let them use bumblebee.
Posted By: PenWing Re: Choose your core Transformers - 2004-11-09 2:24 AM
Really? Hmm. That sucks. Who can replace Bumblebee? Maybe Tracks? That's a bit of a different direction. If Mirage wasn't a Formula 1 racer...I always liked his, well, mirages. Oh, I got it, Smokescreen. He's got a great attitude. Fits right in with Jazz and Hot Rod.

By the way, are the pictures showing up?
Posted By: Grimm Re: Choose your core Transformers - 2004-11-09 2:41 AM
Yup. I like your choices. Pretty close to what I'd choose. I think I'd use Prowl for the Bots, though. He'd be a good second to Prime.

Doesn't seem to right to use Jazz without the Scatman around.
Posted By: Fused Re: Choose your core Transformers - 2004-11-09 3:02 AM
I'm down with that list. Some additions I'd thrown in along with the mentioned.

Bots:

Prime
Ironhide
Grimlock (and co.)
Omega
Prowl
Arcee
Jetfire

Cons:

Megatron
Soundwave
Predaking
Starscream
Devastator
Cyclonus
Blitzwing

I prefer the World War II miniseries. I only read one issue of it. Anyone know if it's worth continuing?
Posted By: PenWing Re: Choose your core Transformers - 2004-11-10 3:13 AM
Grimlock and the other Dinobots are awsome. I just wish they combined. Energon Grimlock and Swoop are being released as a set, and they do combine, although I haven't seen it yet, so I don't know what this new "Dinobot" looks like.

Thing is, for the first movie, I'd keep the Dinobots out. Same with the Constructicons. I would rather add them in for the second film. There is a reason the Autobots never created and combiner to compete with the Constructicons, the Dinobots didn't need any help to take on Devistator. Well, until the movie. I never understood why Prime and Megatron were only that powerful for the movie. Same with Devastator. He was the only combiner used. Why? What about Menasor? And what happened to Superion?

Anyway, you always need to have something bigger and badder for the sequal.

Same thing with Omega Supreme, one of the coolest bots there is. By the way, this is his new, Energon look:





Here are Grimlock and Swoop:

That he was a Go-Bot?

When I was little I carried Cy-kill and Leaderone everywhere I went in my pocket. So there's mych love for Cy-Kill here!

Posted By: PenWing Re: Choose your core Transformers - 2004-11-10 3:34 AM
The new Arcee is way cooler than Cy-Kill.

And either Prime could kick Leaderone's ass. It goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway, that Grimlock could kick Leaderone's ass.

I liked Go-bots as a kid, too, but I have to face the facts here.

Do you feel better - cleaner - now, Penwing?
Posted By: PenWing Re: Choose your core Transformers - 2004-11-10 4:19 AM
Hey, I still remember the Go-Bots theme song.



















It was really awful, wasn't it?

Go-bots were the poor mans transformers.

I wouldn't know which to pick since I can hardly remember the series.

I only watched Beast Wars.
Posted By: Ultimate Jaburg53 Re: Choose your core Transformers - 2004-11-10 8:40 AM
Beast Wars was good. I loved how it tied into the original series.

Megatron kicked ass! He gave Primal and crew alot of trouble. Too bad all his peoples are fuck ups.
Posted By: Pariah Re: Choose your core Transformers - 2004-11-10 8:42 AM
It's the one series I bothered to wait months for downloading from Bearshare.

Hey, did you watch Beast Machines?
Posted By: Ultimate Jaburg53 Re: Choose your core Transformers - 2004-11-10 8:50 AM
I didn't like it.

What the fuck was up with the plant buisiness?

Megatron-still cool.
Posted By: Pariah Re: Choose your core Transformers - 2004-11-10 11:31 AM
I never could figure out the schedule, so I only got to see a few here and a couple there. But what I saw looked pretty cool.

S'why I ask.

Did you get to see the end? If so, what was it?
Posted By: Jason E. Perkins Re: Choose your core Transformers - 2004-11-11 12:20 AM
I choo-choo-choose her.
