Nelson,
I think I'm actually gonna get sick to my stomach with these names, THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!!!! If Mercedes and Ferrari were not gonna let them use transformers names then why use the vehicles in the movie at all? Terrible planning by the casting crew or whoever picks out the cars and characters, Next thing you know soundwave is gonna be called Mercedesbot, Did they even think this out before they added the cars?
Autobot Que. Badass.
Thanks Nelson! :borat

Wait, I'm confused Que or Queue?
(Because Que is "kay" to me and Queue is "cue.")

Who cares what there called, the movie looks f**king awesome!!!
Fast cars, girls and giant fighting robots!!! perfect movie![]()
I like both of the names; especially Que as a reference to Q from Bond (although I guess I would prefer just Q, but perhaps there is some licensing issues with that, and in reality how it's pronounced is more important). Dino is definitely old school Italian; certainly not as common nowadays, but depending on his personality and voice, it could really work well.

My opinion... the name Que fits more than Wheeljack, based on the car. It just seems more sophisticated. I mean really? A Benz named Wheeljack?
Thx Nelson for the info and hard work putting up with all of us.
I see these names and as I was alive and kicking in G1 time frame, it bothers me a little but not enough not to see the movie. But I laugh as I apparently think so outside the box from the the people here on the forums ^.^ .. I heard about Dino.. and first thought was.. why the heck did they name it after Fred Flinstone's pet dinosaur? and then now Q.. and my first thought was what does John Delancie (as Q from star trek) have to do with anything transformers???
oh well.. going off to laugh at myself now.. LOL Thx again Nelson for the info
:head:wtf:lmao
"to punish and enslave..." :lmao
Sophisticated? Are you kidding me? So calling a Camero Bumblebee or A Truck Optimus Prime is any more sophisticated? It has nothing to do with what model or make the transformer is. Most of the Transformers names convey what they are all about. Bumblebee (even tho he is yellow) he is quick like a bee, hes one of the first to get into the fight just as a soldier bee should. Ironhide coveys that he is a brawler and has the iron hide of a tank, of a soldier. Ratchet says it all, he is a a fixer, a tool of sorts, the best tool to have on the battlefield, a medic. Optimus Prime, Optimus is a great Roman name. Enough said on that.
The name has more to do with the make and model of the vehicle than you think.. The names convey what they're about, but the type of car they are is also a part of that... Yes, Ironhide's name fits him, but he's also a BIG ASS FUKKIN' PICKUP TRUCK right? And isn't Ratchet a fukkin' Emergency vehicle?? OF COURSE HE IS. IT FITS. A Mercedes E550 is a top of the line luxury car. To me, the name Wheeljack does not fit that vehicle (ESPECIALLY with who he resembles in robot mode) and is more suited for a sports car.
benz named que, rari named dino!
