New Transformers Forum

[Z28 Autobot]

Would like to thank the guys here at 5thgen.org for making this forum for both the movie and the car that will be staring in it. The 5th gen Camaro better known to some as Bumblebee.
This forum will be about the movie, Autobots vs. Decepticons transforming into vehicles we know and love.
The Camaro's rival will be none other than a Saleen Mustang. We will see a Pontiac Solstice, a Hummer rescue vehicle and a Kodiak GMC truck. Along with Optimus Prime the leader as a Semi Truck.
So come on in and if your a Transformers fan visiting this site. Say hello and get to know the stars of the movie a little more as you will see these cars on the street. If you have information about the movie please let us know. We would love to hear about it. Especially if its about our favorite yellow Autobot. ;) :popcorn:

I have already posted this somewhere else on here, but this is the more appropriate place.

I was looking for Camaro toys yesterday and ran across the BumbleBee.

It wasn't the Camaro?

[Z28 Autobot]

well hes a few other things before that. Hes been a VW bug and also a small hatchback in another line.
The movie will be the first time hes a Camaro

[r-type]

And if rumors are true he will be this (article only, no pics):

I belive bumblebee was a VW prior to the 2007 movie.

[LorcinLS1]

Good Job!!! I am excited about this movie.

[Z28 Autobot]

Yup, hes been a few things in his history of being a Transformer. A few less known variations have popped up over the years but these are the three..

the one we all know and love Original VW Bumblebee

His Classics line. Hes a Hatchback with no real ties to an actual car just a good toy.

Yeah, I used to own almost every Go-bot and a majority of the Transformers.

Now I cannot find them?

I wasn't suprised to see it as anything other than the Camaro, but was hoping that it WOULD be a Camaro.


Everytime I go look for something in a Diecast Camaro all I see is that DAMN Challenger or something on "DUBS".

I have seen 5 different companies producing the Challenger in 15 different colors and 47 speciial editions...it is getting frustrating looking at ALL of this HOPAR junk....:)

[Z28 Autobot]

the good thing is there will be many 5th gen Transformers for this movie all sizes and diffrent shapes..also a 76 Camaro also thats Bumblebee before he gets a refitted... ;)

Yeah I saw that Camaro on another post. Is it in the movie too?

[Z28 Autobot]

the 76 yea..wont give to much away but they are both the same robot ;)

[Chris 96 WS6]

More 5th gens than Bumblebee huh? Interesting.

[Z28 Autobot]

ohh no Chris..I mean as a toy.. there will be many great versions of the car..so it will be out there..the 76 will be a toy also..

[nickdrud]

Prime does look good.

[5thgenlover]

i have no idea where to post this but quick question. are any of the beast wars charcters going to be in the movie?

[Z28 Autobot]

short answer. Nope. This is all more or less an homage to the originals. The bots that turned into vehicles. BW was awsome but would not fit in a movie like this at all.

[5thgenlover]

Bw And Beast Metals is what got me into transformers. if it wasnt for Rat Trap i would have never watched the show or gotten into other shows like G1

[Z28 Autobot]

cool news to hear man. alot of TF fans forget about the newer guys like yourself that fell in love with the TF idea but not on cars but the animal things they transformed into. BW actually got me back into TF. especially when they tied both together.

[Luwinkle]

Well, I just got back from FINALLY seeing the damn thing.

All I have to say is..if it was any more badass I would have lost bladder control.

Even though the family behind my dad and I were very annoying..talking without even whispering during the first part...hitting my chair..and the kid behind me sounded like he was munching on bricks it was so loud. Thank God they eventually shut up.


And watching all those big bots fighting makes me want to try to install Metal Fatigue :(.

Times like those call for a plasma cannon blast or a transforming Nokia. :D

[Luwinkle]

Or just a He-man Bitchslap. :D

EDIT: Was it just me..or did that nokia have a gatling gun for a crotch?

No you weren't. I noticed it too.

Well, we know he shoots from the crotch anyway. The itty bitty energizer bunny from hell is a freak.

[Luwinkle]

They had a little too much fun making that guy.

[urbanlegend]

He rocked though. It's a shame Simmons zapped him.

[Luwinkle]

Shame he was a evil little bastard, too.

Just imagine what a MOTOROLA would be like!

American phone!

[urbanlegend]

A Motorola would have been moshing the glass.

[Luwinkle]

It would have been decidedly more badass, too.

However..put a Nokia N-Gage in there..it'd just commit suicide because that's how bad it is. :P

[urbanlegend]

Or put a RAZR or KRAZR in there with it and watch them battle it out. They're pretty sharp. *drums please...*

[Luwinkle]

Which one would be the good guy and which one would be the bad guy?

[urbanlegend]

Motos vs. Nokia. I'm putting money on Samurai up there to give the Motos a run for their money. That crotch cannon is killer.

[Luwinkle]

I was talking RAZR vs KRAZR :P.

But yah, that crotch cannon is something to look out for. Unless the Motorola has chest-cannons.
Yes, plural.
wink wink nudge nudge.

The KRAZR. Because it has more bingzzzzz toys on it. I'm sure that all equates to more fire power. Somehow. Chest cannons? Lol. Like cellphone-bot versions of those fem-bots in Austin Powers.

[Luwinkle]

Yah, I just realized all the transformers were guys....

Shame Jazz got totally owned, though.

[urbanlegend]

Arcee was supposed to be in the film but the fans freaked. So they replaced her with Ironhide (for which I'm thankful because I love Ironhide) and there is talk that she will be in the next film. A pink racing bike. Go figure.

Optimus Prime has the Matrix and the Matrix (spark in his chest) is capable of giving live. The Matrix is good so I think there's a good chance Jazz will be in th e next. Jazz is another Fan favorite.

P.S. I'm a total Transformers freak. :D I always have been and always will be.

[Luwinkle]

Eww, pink crotch-rocket. Get a Harley in there then we'll talk.
I liked having all (except optimus prime) of the good guys being GM vehicles.

[Jinx]

Arcee could be Megan Fox's ride. Imagine Megan Fox in a tight leather biker chick gear. :popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::eek::popcorn::popcorn:

[Jinx]

Unfortunately Ford owns part of Harley, but Harley is considered an independent subdivision.

[Luwinkle]

Since when did Ford own a part of Harley? I never heard of such treachery!

[Jinx]

I have to look that up, but it no the same as ford owning land rover and jag. You cant get Harley parts over the Ford parts counter. Hell the name is plastered on F-series trucks once in a while, if that gives you any sign of something.

[Marvelous]

yeah, i've seen plenty of F-150 Harley Editions.

[Jinx]

Buell Motorcycle Company is a 98 % subsidiary of Harley-Davidson as of 1998. And excuse me I think the Harley name rights are just ford trucks. Im most likey wrong on its being minority subsidiary of ford motor company. My bad.

[Luwinkle]

I figured that was just a licensed thing Ford did to sell more F-150s from time to time.

Well, atleast it's not owned by part of Toyota or anything.

In other news, I would have cried if GM decided to partner with Nissan...

actually she was supposed to be a Buell ;)

[Luwinkle]

Eh, Buell I'm ok with. Atleast it's an american crotch-rocket :D.

[Jinx]

I dont care if its a Huffy, I want to see Megan Fox in tight lowrise leather pants, dammit.:gr_patriot:

[Luwinkle]

Watch her be in some sort of huge, burly biker-suit. Just to piss you off.

[Jinx]

Its good thing the actor signed agreement for future films then. Cause Ill be damned if stand for a Rosie O'Donnell in a biker suit.

[Luwinkle]

Nah, I mean Megan Fox in a big burly biker-suit. Huge baggy thing.

[Z28 Autobot]

riding position on a buell?

Nah, she'd voice Unicron.

[Jinx]

I want a Megan Fox clone. :BangHead::BangHead::BangHead:

[Luwinkle]

I want the girl I used to work with, I still see her at church on sundays..she's even better looking than Megan Fox, seriousness.

[Z28 Autobot]

umm pics..with a statement like that..yea pics.. ;)

[Luwinkle]

umm pics..with a statement like that..yea pics.. ;)

Her facebook randomly shut down around jan-feb..so no pics. :(

[ampretty001]
