    Default A new Autobot confirmed...

    ...Rollbar - a red jeep. In Gen1, Rollbar was a green jeep, so a partial homage.

    The toy for this Autobot could be interesting, maybe they'll release a repaint in green and either call it 'Jungle Roller' or 'Movie Hound' lol

    That is one of the ugliest Jeep Wrangler's I have ever seen. I'm all for raised suspension and larger tires but I think it needs to be toned down a notch.

    Looks tough, I am loving that we are seeing some real diversity in this last film, with a Merc, a Ferrari, Chevies and Jeeps. I reckon it would be awesome if we saw a really iconic Japanese sports car like a Type R or GTR, I think that would round things out nicely.

    I think that's the whole point. A toned down Jeep Wrangler would look pretty boring amongst a Corvette Stingray convertible and a Ferrari 458 Italia. And besides, a toned down Jeep wrangler is already amongst us with Alt/BT Hound/Swindle. To me it looks like it'll fit right for it's intended purpose, but not a showroom floor (except as a TF3 promo display =oP). I quite like the the surprise rear weaponry, that's a certain way to deter tailgater's =oP

    One thing that seems to have escaped them is that RPM Rollbar looks nothing like this.... Soooo, it's like a re-version or something? RPM Rollbar gets blown up, so he gets remade as TF3 Rollbar...? o.O

    I guess it's a good thing that there's more robot characters now, especially on the Autobot side (it isn't so good for my wallet hehe) but I hope these robots get more screen time and at least some character development! If not at least show each one doing a kickass/signature move!

    i really do not understand why they are using the ugliest jeep ever... it looks like a really big version of wheelie, with extra large tyres.
    i want to see how they incorperate those wheels into robot mode though. it may actually be a really interesting character

    I can see Hasbro repainting the toy and calling it Mudslinger.
