That's none too shabby at all. Is there an equivalent Megatron poster out there as well?

Shame about his beak, tho.

If I spot a megatron version ill post it in.

Now, its probably artistic license and all, but i dont belive a truck can transform into a robot that big?

Unless he unfolds like origami, and most of what looks like mass is in fact just empty space- meaning with one punch he should collapse like a soufle in a cupboard :3

yeah, whilst its not mass changing, its a bit of stretch with most of the transformations ive seen - tiny plates that keep extending to 10z thier size because they are really, really thin, hmm...

It makes me want to see the film. Can't say fairer than that.

edit - a bit about the movie designs:

Eggcellent.

When all is said and done, and the movie is over, I'll probably have a look at what posters there's out there, and buy one to put up in my new flat.

Farrar - who i have alot of respect for - the chief CGi guy on TF:M

"We would not abide by true physics," Farrar said. "We would not abide by true weight. We would change it as needed to make it cool. We did a lot of research with stunt photography. We had stunt men, including Kenny Bates, the stunt coordinator, do a lot of stunt work for us, ... and then you'd try and put it in the scene. ... We did all kinds of things just to experiment with what they should do, with what would look cool."

So, no mass changing eh Bay? - i understand Farrars direction I just dont like being told lies, lies I tell ya by bay... not that it matters.

I think that it's about just right for a big rig.

From the side, the head looks a little like an AFL/NFL helmet. With ears.

My, my...was that an American football reference from across the pond? That makes me want to go out and take something off the pitch.

Sorry. I should've said "generic open-faced helmet with external mouthguard. With ears."
