www.seibertron.com
Gave me some good news when I checked out their web site.

Frank Welker!!!!

then some bad news

a full CGI image of Megatron

I hope to Primus that this is the image of Megatron before he comes to Earth

PS.. I will change my name if they make a repaint of this crap and call it Galvatron. I'm sorry Comm. Megatron but you look like a pile of energon droppings in this image.

Galvatron: megs has no earth mode in the movie. so we won't see him any differently until any sequels. I don't mind it seeing as rumour is he isn't in the movie till near the end. there is a full render of barricade too he looks sweet!

(excuse any bad spelling etc as i posted this from my wii browser)

I don't know... That pose is pretty funny though. It looks like he's about to say "Ta Da!" He just needs a cane in one hand & a top hat in the other.

Frank Welker? FRANK WELKER??? WOO HOO!!!

Btw Welker is NOT confirmed yet.

There is rumour going around that the choice is between Welker and Hugo Weaving (of V for Venbetta etc).

So don't go dancing in the streets just yet.

oh btw here is tghe Barricade pic, now that I am back on my PC

what do we think of him?

Delita-1 · Post by **Delita-1** » Thu Jan 11, 2007 10:50 am

IMDB.com has him listed as the voice, both under his profile & under the movie profile. It doesn't say 'rumored' anymore, so I assumed that meant he was in.

Barricade looks pretty cool.

Speaking of the movie... Has anyone else seen there are going to be TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE PREQUEL comics?

Rodimus Prime · Post by **Rodimus Prime** » Thu Jan 11, 2007 2:06 pm

never ever trust IMDB.com ever.

It is well known that they never have sources listed for their material and a lot of time the stuff they publish is proven to be wrong.

Seibertron has the welker/Weaving story and they had a ligit source as far as I recall (too lazy to go back and check).

Barricade is sweet. the movie prequel comics are going to be too rich for my blood. i'm gonna go watch some more headmasters.

Prequel comics doesn't surprise me.

Barricade looks scarier/more badass than Megatron does, IMO. I'm really not impressed with Megs at all.

OK that makes more sense for the image and it kinda makes me feel better about Megs.

But...

WTF does he turn into then?
They can't sell a Transformers MEGATRON toy without it transforming!

He turns into a cybertrion jet

I get the whole "no earth mode" thing, but I don't think that makes it any better. I just don't care for the design either way.

Post by **Time Traveller** » Fri Jan 12, 2007 12:30 am

I'm sure there's a reason. We'll see.

That place scares me. This is really the only Transformers related place I bother to go, unless I'm REALLY bored. It's cozy here. You guys post any important stuff worth looking at.

I went & read it anyway though.

I'm sure Weaving would do a fine job, but... COME ON!!! If Peter Cullen is doing Prime, Welker HAS TO do Megs. It just wouldn't be right if he didn't! If Weaving gets the part, they'll have to replace Cullen with Keanu Reeves or something.

In the end, I just hope the story is good.

Dear God, don't even joke like that!

I'm having a hard time trying to picture what it'll be like with voices coming out of those things. It's a little awkward...

Going off topic... (gee that NEVER happens) How do you like that thing?

Post by **Time Traveller** » Fri Jan 12, 2007 2:50 pm

idk, i think viggo mortensen would make an ok prime though. even though they're not enemies like weaving/reeves.

It's not bad as a gimmick, as a full time browser it leaves a lot to be desired with no tab or multi page browsing yet. But it is only the trial beta version with some functions not yet implimented. My main complain is the huge black bar at the top and side that reduce the page viewing space.

Back on the clock people. Barricade, me they all look like alien vs predator!!I am very,very disappointed.
