    I guess seeing Arcee's name on the toy list would give a bit more to the theory of that at least the blue bike may make it into the next movie? Even if just for a quick death scene? There was a bike seen on set that looked a lot like the blue bike from ROTF only its color seemed to be more black with blue highlights. Could be her updated color/look?

    they can use the same SUV mold but just add different weapons. It wouldnt be any different from them doing a re-paint but just not re-paint it, give them different weapons and names and there you go.

    I remember when I was little, how kids collected dozens of Cobra Troopers (same guy, mind you) just to build an army for their Cobra Commander. Yo Joe for Hasbro!!!

    Trailbreaker, sir... good point!

    Just because we have Sentinel Prime's name on the toy sheet as a leader class does not mean he is the fire truck. And just because a scurity guard happend to hear Sentinel's name on set(probably while the fire truck was on set) does not mean Sentinel is the fire truck. Now im not saying for fact that he isnt but there is not hard proof as of yet that he is. And Ultr Magnus's name is on call sheets so there is a very good chance he is in the movie and can also be the fire truck... keep that in mind.

    There's a pic of a possible Ratchet floating around... looks like they're still using the mold design from the toy range for the first movie.

    His toy is back. This in no way means he's in the movie. No one caught a mustang of any kind on any of the shoots.

    He may not be in the movie but you guys have to keep in mind that just because no one seen a car on any set that looked like Barricade, does not mean he could not make it in. CGI is a wonderful thing. A real life car is really not needed for a film like this.

    Too bad that the toys doesn't confirm anything. Remember this list?


    • Leader Bumblebee
    • Leader Sentinel Prime
    • Voyager Optimus Prime With Trailer (Yeah… you heard that!)
    • Voyager Ironhide
    • Deluxe+ Bumblebee
    • Deluxe Autobot Ratchet
    • Deluxe Skids
    • Deluxe Sideswipe
    • Deluxe Roadbuster
    • Deluxe Sponsored Car #2 Wrecker
    • Deluxe Arcee
    • Deluxe Air Ride (Air Raid maybe?)
    • Voyager Megatron
    • Deluxe Starscream (YES!!!)
    • Deluxe Barricade
    • Deluxe Crankcase
    • Voyager Military Helicopter
    • Deluxe Jolt
    • Voyager New Villain (That You Shockwave?)

    You don't expect all of them to be in the movie, right? Although my friend I would love to see Barricade back though it won't make sense.

    But why do a CGI one while you could have the real thing? Last time I checked, they like to use CGI for stuff you can't create in real life on the set.

    The question is this... Have you seen many figures in any of the movie lines that get both a legends and Deluxe modes not be seen in some way in the movie? The toy of Barricade is a legends and the one on the list is a Deluxe. Most toys in the movie line that dont end up in the movie only end up with one mold.

    if a character is in the movie that will only be in car or alt mode for more then a few seconds... why waist the time with transporting the real thing when you already have it's dimensions scanned to file and can re-create it any way you want? The same for Bonecrusher... the look alike in ROTF that we seen driving in the desert was not a real Buffalo mine sweeper... it was all CGI and they had the scanned form from the real Bonecrusher from the first movie to do so.

    That had to have been a last minute addition. Some of the huge Constructicons such as Long Haul and Scavenger were obviously CGI, because seriously, how the hell are they gonna afford to paint a huge-ass Caterpillar dump truck and transport that onto the set? Never mind the even huger Terex mining excavator.

    But some other things are still possible to replicate in real life, surprisingly. For instance, the massive, hulking alien-looking spaceship thing on the set. (which is presumable a large Decepticon, maybe Shockwave) If they can build that in real life, then by all means Mike would want to have a real Saleen Mustang on the set at his disposal because filming the real thing is a hell of a lot better than pretending there's one there. Should Barricade be in the movie of course.

    But considering there's not a Saleen to be found on the set, then I can very well say that Barricade is not in the movie.

    and i agree with you 100% Trail... all im saying is if there is something in these movies that Bay or Paramount or whoever, did not want to be seen til the movie releases, CGI is the way to go. Barricade and even other characters like Jolt and Arcee could be last minute additions and if not filmed from the start, any of these characters can easily be created in full CGI with no problems is all im getting at. For all we know the return of Barricade is one of many things Bay wanted 100% hidden from the public eye. What better way to do that than CGI him. I mean if Bay can have a cgi look-alike Bonecrusher driving in the desert and a full Optimus truck mode driving off a transport plane and so on, other characters souldnt be a problem. In no way am I saying Barricade or any of the other are in this but there is no reason why they couldnt be.

    The hover drone (Shockwave) was created instead of blue screen stuff because of the multiple uses it saw with Shia and Rosie climbing on it and it against a blue screen. It was simply made for human interaction purposes. Barricade won't need human interaction and simply could be all robot mode like the con that snatched Judy and Ron in Paris
