For the first time, the French translation is not full of errors. But why some French language for and American selling? Or is it International?

First and foremost, it's probably a cost-cutting technique to save on printing. My guess is that this encompasses the French speaking Canadian Regions, Spanish speaking Central and South American regions (sans portugues)?


To TB: Why is it bad news, better put, why does that matter? When I was a kid i never even bothered with the instructions, I always loved figuring out the transformation on my own anyway.

[quinlan]

In Europe we have more languages for the instructions : English, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Deutsh.

LOL I don't really think it's bad news, it's more of a tease at the fans' reaction toward multilingual instructions.

Demolisher gets a Bio: http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-...lishor-166863/

DEMOLISHOR isn't very bright, but he knows when to fight, and when to run and hide. Arriving on Earth to find Megatron destroyed, hiding seemed like the best option. Since then, he's taken a few smaller Decepticons under his protection, and built quite a little community. It hasn't been easy hiding among the humans that creep like a disease over this planet, but he and his companions are content until a new Decepticon leader emerges to guide them back to glory.

Slightly OT here, though it does relate to the above, TFW2005 looks to be gone..... can't get the above link to work.

I find the idea of Demolisher hiding a small 'community' of 'Cons quite interesting....

I know, it was working for me when I got the news but then it just stopped. Maybe the bandwidth just jumped on there all of the sudden.

[SDL]

it's been happening a lot recently on there, so you're probalby right, they've just hit their limit this month.

Annoying as hell.

they'er probably talking about the other Constructicons.

[Trailbreaker]

I wonder if they have some kinda "camp" at the steel plant or something.

thats probably not a bad idea. My thing is... in the trailer people think the 6 protoform bots coming down in Egypt are the Constructicons. But from the looks of the trailer they all or at least a few are in China. So what do you think? From the sounds of Demolisher's bio he and others have been on Earth for a while. So could the protos in the trailer be a second wave of newer bots. remember in the Alliance comics there are at least 11 that come down with Soundwave. And then in the trailer we have at least 13 that were counted. Im just woundering if these are all different bots.

The steel plant seems like the most plausible place to me. Though, what a large mining excavator is doing at a steel plant is beyond me, unless there was some kinda iron ore mine nearby. But yeah, people there would simply take them as a bunch of construction equipment sitting around.

well if you look at the trailer the steel plant may be kinda a mix between a mining spot and a ship dock. There are a lot of shipping containers around. Maybe some of the construction equipment was going to be transported to another location and waiting pickup at the ship dock?

Well, whatever the situation is, I am placing my bets on meeting the Constructicons here, I mean, it is a construction type place, ya know?

Shadow, you remember that behind the scenes Wal*Mart footage? Remember that part where Sideways gets out of the way of the Arcee bikes? Wasn't that at the steel plant too? It looks like there is going to be a whole sequence that covers a lot of area in this Chinese city whereever it is.

ya that was at the same place. Arcee, the twins, Sideswipe and i believe Ironhide were all said to be in this part of the movie.

[Trailbreaker]

Any other Decepticons? (other than Constructicons and Sideways)

[Xsubs]

I would like to see a 'masterpiece' version of optimus someday...
