If it turns out to be real I will NOT eat my collection...

But yeah everyone, heed that disclamer! This is just something I found on their site while looking for info on some of their upcoming releases.
I for one love the work these people are doing, and look forward to supporting there products in hopes that they can one day soon bring us something this cool!
Still, unless someone can translate the page, all I know is that it's a sketch I found

It's definitely fan made. That's what these guys do.
Those sketches do look pretty cool. I got the Cliffjumper kit and it's awesome. If they keep up the same quality as that, and are able to get their stuff out to consumers easier, they're going to make a killing.

It's still impressive though, but considering the movie was going for a realistic look then the trailer wouldn't fit that style.

but the first one did have alot of surprises in it so i will be surprised if it makes in the film & not fan cration i see jet engins in back of trailer

i agree

THIS IMAGE HAS BEEN FLOATING AROUND ON TFCLUB FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW, SO IT'S PROBABLY NOTHING MORE THAN A FAN IMAGE. IN FACT, THERE IS ANOTHER IMAGE ON THE SITE IN A SIMILAR ART STYLE OF 4 ROBOTS MADE TO RESEMBLE THE GUARDIAN CREATURES OF THE CARDINAL DIRECTIONS, NORTH SOUTH EAST AND WEST
Thank you

I kind of agree about needing a trailer though. Leader class Movie Prime could have had one at least, IMO. Using the trailer to form a sort of gestalt or super mode for Prime is just getting kind of redundant for me though.

My only problem with that line of thinking is that in the first one, they landed quick and went right into action. Wouldn't it stand to reason that by time TF2 rolls around, he'd have had enough time to develope something like this out of both bordome and nesecity?
Or are ye expecting the exact same designs in TF2 I can tell you right now that won't happen cause it'll sell less toys.

OK, is there a point to that all though, or are you just stating that a site has more than one piece of concept art?

The reason is that there's no aero on top (that curvy thing that makes the wind go up over the trailer).
But that don't mean anything.
My gut feeling is...
Ultra Magnus!!!
Seriously, folks, take a look at that armor.
Note the guns and exaggerated pauldrons/shoulders.
Now picture it with blue and white.
Tell me that's not a Bay-ified Magnus.
(I can dream, can't I?)

EDIT:
Ran a few translators.
WorldLingo says:
The weapon and spraying engine packing box Pi Renxing the condition is protects the armor, the aircraft carrier prestige has moved.
Is I uses the camera as for third to rescreen in the family an old picture background is 15 years ago on my small time room wall
wall pastes at least fills on my picture that wall to be possible to distinguish has a picture is OP that is I 6 7 year old of or smaller time picture OP
must say now was picture Lian Zheimian the wall possibly all already has this picture to record me to distort actually the Jin'gang most primitive deep love
OP which I draws with the present to compare only then sighed regardless of were I or OP all changes nearby the mature
this OP right leg also energyVaguely distinguished " supporting-heaven pillar " three character “to hold up the " character to on just preschool's children was character at that time I who difficult to write
difficultly to record already can make a mistake in writing
BabelFish is pretty much the same thing.
There's a slight difference, though...

Sounds like a guy wrote fan art of Prime.
But, again, that's just me.
I'm still holding out for an Ultra Magnus prototype.

I'd like to see it stay that way though, but a add on for Prime, even that tanker thats always on Ebay would be nice. After all they did go through the trouble of adding a hitch port

haha, only that that artwork, as everyone else has already guessed, is simply a fanart. I first stumbled upon that piece sometime last year, along with the other artwork i described and then some, all by the same member of tfclub. fanart, nothing more, nothing less.
Posted by Liege Evilmus on April 21st, 2008 @ 8:46pm CDT
Another line of repaints wont put money in Hasbro or Paramounts pockets.
Still a concept piece founs on a site that sells garage kits...
Even for eyecandy sake, it was worth pointing out. I'm suprized it got front paged though. Hell I thought my line about BalckArachnia and Ratched being up on HTS would have made it befor this but whatever...
However I do have to say though, IF they made it, I'd buy it!

The autograph doesn't belong to anyone on the movie design team.
It's "just" beautiful fan-art.

I think leage posted this cos he thinks and hopes this is a project from TFclub, you know the guys that made the classics Clifjumper upgrade set, and the upcoming Magnus and Prime trailers?
I think this looks awesome and would make for an awesome upgrade.

Also I haven't seen crap around Virginia as far as the animated toys, the new Movie toys, the premium stuff.. not a damn thing.. we keep getting th left over crud that came out back when the restock boom hit.. because of the shortages.. I think Virginia is like 6 months behind any releases..because when others of you guys get stuff in other areas of the country, I don't usually see that stuff here in Virginia until like 6 month later.. and then it's very sparse pickins!!!!
I digress..
hmmmmmm could this design be the makings of the Apex Armor Prime?? i mean it would make sense that the Movie Version would get his trailer, but call it Apex armor, since they combined some stuff and changed some stuff.. why not just make the first trailer he gets into the Apex armor..I don't know, but I'm anxiously awaiting to see if this thing turns into a full blown usable Idea..
I think that the Bots should be toned down a bit in their kibble though..there's being realistic, and there's being too realistic..
Sorry guys I've been away for awhile..on Deviant Art..

We can see a mile away that it is fan made.
It's boring to find links to this thread in the internet. It's getting more irritant than Rick Rolling.

Hey those are really awesome. You're Prime upgrade concept wasn't really my thing, but some of that other stuff is amazing.
I really dig your triple changer Blackout!
and there's some great ideas with your other stuff as well.
