That's fine for guys our age, but not kids.

I agree with you. But I feel like, in general, kids' material has become way to grown up. I feel like that without having any kids, just compared to how "kids' stuff" felt to me when I was young, by comparison. I don't agree with it, but that's a whole nother topic...

i read that the only reason they didn't rename him galvatron after he was rebuilt was to preserve name recognition with the general audience. i personally wouldn't have liked it if they renamed him; i feel like they draw too much storyline from the '86 film way too soon these days. look how fast and often prime is killed and resurrected these days..

They certainly did play that card quick... You're right, it's almost like there is nowhere left to go.

yeah, now everyone's debating whether unicron is going to show up. that's like, end-game ****. it does not feel like this universe has been fleshed out enough to introduce something like that into it. it's like if the x-men fought the shi'ar war in the very first movie.

Yeah, that concept, and the one I posted, are one in the same bro.

(They never beefed up the left arm, it's still small in the film)

And that is the Crab claw, just at a different angle.

Its really the same exact design we got in the movie besides the alterations that ILM gave it which i already mentioned.

Leader megatron has NO excuses.

well if it is going to be the last movie then they can do what ever they want...and i would hope they would make it big as hell...even if it doesnt necessarily fit the way it should

crap, you're right. it's such a similar image (same pose, same shot), thought that was it..
