Turn the Ford Falcon car into a Transformer!

[Deonasis]

I read elsewhere that the responses Ford receives will be given to High Moon studios who will create a piece of "FoC style" transformer concept art for Ford to use. It probably won't make it into the game or dlc (unfortunately).

^Yeah, it's going to be a concept art.

More importantly, I hope they give it an Australian-based persona in the tech specs bio. Because that's what we did with the Autobot Chainmasters for the Sabretron 2004 convention -- they all had Australian-based colours and each had a different kind of Australian-based/inspired personality. I personally would love to see this Autobot portrayed as an egalitarian, because I think that's one of the great things about Australian culture/society (at least in concept).

this has come straight out of left field :S

Eehh, it wouldn't be the first time a car company has done a cross-promotion with Transformers. Remember the following?
+ Mazda RX-8 and Binaltech Zoom-Zoom (red version of BT Meister which also came out at about the same time)
+ Movieverse Bumblebee transforms into a 2009 Camaro... even though he appeared in the 2007 Transformers film
+ The Chevy Aveo TF promotion

...some car manufacturers have used faux-Transformers to promote their cars, but without needing to collaborate with HasTak or get involved with the Transformers franchise, such as:
+ the transforming Mini Cooper advert
+ Citroën's "alive with technology" campaigns

And there have been some stupid ones like Holden's campaign where the cars transform and tuck inside the drivers' bottoms as they walk away happy (presumably in excruciating agony), or the current Suzuki ad where bits of the car shift around for no apparent reason. But this would be a first for Australia though IIRC.

What ever this promotion ends up yielding, you can bet it'll be typically Fixed Or Repaired Daily.

It's about time a australian car manufacturer got in on the transformer title, I think it is because it now is the trend to have a autobot or decepticon logo on your car. Like the ones for the Mazda with the devil horns, I have seen plenty of cars with it on them. And as a road worker I see lots of cars with the autobot/decepticon logo on them. Actually i was in Rose Bay today and a Jeep Wrangler drove past with a massive autobot logo on the bonnet like Hound. I even have the decepticon logo on my XR6 falcon

I guess eventually He or She will be Found On a Rubbish Dump somewhere, but I hope it'll be First On Race Day.
If only it was Decepticon, it could race dirty.
