Omnibots in the film??? *theory*

[moron2themax]

I'm sure you've all seen the pics of those nascar...cars o.0 already, there are only photos of two however, but in one of the vids i saw in one of the other threads show a third racing car, making it a total of three racing cars.

It reminded me of these guys here:
http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Omnibot_(G1)
"The Omnibots are a trio of Autobots whose distinctive feature is an advanced "armored car" mode involving the deploying of weapons and/or wings from their otherwise-nondescript automobile modes." <---that caught my eye

now there doesnt seem to be any wings, but this image here shows what looks like jets on the back of those cars


Hmmm the link also mentioned that they can do "dimension-hopping." maybe that can be part of the story or something lol

Now i know its possible that they could be stunticons, but at this point, they can be just racing cars with guns for all we know lol just thought i'd toss this around, what do you guys think?

1. The Omnibots would be a nice idea

2. The Stunticon altmodes didn't have any special features on them (except for their "gravitational repulsers")

3. We will see what MB says.

cool idea but i have never heard of the omnibots

I think the nascar cars are human cars rigged with weapons. If they are autobots or decepticons their look should have been made in post production in CG.

Uhmmm. . . not really. He has all the vehicles on set to shoot live

Yes but why all the guns and covering plates in vehicle mode. As if we can see Bumblebee with his cannon in vehicle mode.

P.S. I would like to see the three Nascar cars combine in one Autobot.

Yeah because other wise they kinda break the mold.... all other TFs in the bay verse transform back into regular vehicles with weapons concealed .... this does look like maybe a car Sam and his new career are working on. Who knows though.... Bays good at misleading us!

one of the reasons why i think they're decepticons. Decepticons dont need to fit in. they prefer to be agressive.

Truth... Decepticons don't care at this point about blending in... the stunticons are really aggressive and outgoing so interesting thought there!

then why choose nascar in the first place?

[Chris Broadway Romero]

way too modified and "shaped" to be human based cars IMO. I think they transform and/or combine into something crazy

[Shadow]

You know not all Autobots would blend in, theres probably some who just dont care?

I for one dont see them being Stunticons. But being these scenes that are being done in Chicago are ment to be the last battle scene... im going to say If they Are Autobots... they are commando types and their whole reason to be there is to destroy D-cons so why hide your weapons? I say they could be Wreckers.

If they are decepticons and very well could be... what about Lockdown, Axor and (one other?)

[metsuke]

I could say Dead End,Breakdown and Wildrider, sounds familiar? xD ... Stunticons

[WheelJacker]

I am still saying they are the Omnibots for 3 reasons:

1. They are a trio (if they were the stunticons a Ferarri racer (Dragstrip) and a truck (Motormaster) would be with them.)

2. If you look at the Omnibots from G1, they have guns and thrusters visible on them (Stunticons don't).

3. In footage of the Chicago shoot, if it were Autobots chasing the Decepticons, the 3 lead cars would try to shake them but they arn't and actually they were trying to let them catch up.
