    Slightly disappointed... I understand their reasoning for only slightly modified toys of exisiting characters is so people don't have to buy them again (if we are to believe them ). But as collectors many of us will be buying them all anyway, so more changes would have been nice...

    Wowsa, Megatron looks FABulous. Only one that interested me last time was Desert Brawl so it's nice to see some of the first few ROTF FAB's looking this good. Looks like the Autobots are going to get tanked in 2009.

    A lot of trilogys have the second one ending with loose ends or beaten good guys. It encourages people to tune into the conclusion to have a 'happy ending'.
    I'm kinda expecting it with TF2, so we gotta make sure that it does well enough for a third.

    I think I read somewhere that Bay said this wouldn't be the case. So you could walk away from the 2nd film with a good ending while still having some things that can be tied up in the 3rd.
    Kind of like Starscream getting away and Barricade basically vanishing in the 1st film (yes I know what happenes to Barricade in the comics and book, but it is basically forgotten in the film)

    I actually think that I read one of the writers say that somewhere. They wanted it to end like "Empire Strikes Back". Where the good guys ended with their backs against the wall but they still had that hope.
