Well, whaddaya know.

It's a pile of those magnetic metallic shavings I have on my desk.

If they get Welker, maybe I can live with it.

It doesnt look anything like Megatron, but I can see it being quite menacing on the big screen.

I also think it would work with Welker voice...

To be fair, there are very few things that don't work with Welker's voice.

I like it. It's going to look wicked cool swinging about in the dark on the big screen.

And the Starscream model in the trailer shows that these images get a lot more "pistony" when they're the finished product... which works.

And Preds - could you at least try and show something resembling sense when it comes to titling news stories? These show up on the site front page - you're reporting when you make your first post. Editorial comment can come later.
Grrr. Argh.

Its a mad bit of design, no argument from me there - except the hands that looks utter **** - ive said this many times tho, it doesnt look like a 'transformer' to me.
