Auction For Transformers ROTF Audi-bot- Robot Mode Pics Featured

Sledge was wrong about the weird legs.

Yeah. Still not as bad as the original Barricade's though.

It actually reminds me of the insecticon Kickback

he's obviously the new barricade
but in my opinion.. a shitty new version.
his feet are small as hell and the color scheme is badddd

the vehicle mode is good tho

im hoping they change this up a bit

those feet are tiny how can he even stand?

Certainly looks like Barricade

Ha ha... your right!

Very carefully.

Two problems, 1) the feet are way to small & 2) The full red torso has got to go. Other than that this is a badass looking figure. Barricade looked awesome in the first one and had very little screen time so why did they changed his form? Oh i know why, the first one looked to much like a normal tf and not a bayformer. Best looking bot from the new movie so far.

I think the head, chest, and arms look better than the original barricade toy. The rest of the body is not so hot.

The vehicle mode is nice, but still doesn't make up for the unsightly legs and waist. I mean come on, if he's supposed to be barricade (that's what most people here are assuming), he needs to look more badass than how he looks now with those girly feet.

Mmore and more I agree...this is Barricade. He's back...has anyone heard if Keith David has been tapped to voice again? That would be a big clue for us...

Yeeeey, it's Kickback !

I'd be surprised if it wasnt barricade. The head sculpt is similar, and so is the wheel-based hands, the feet style, and the "wings" in the back. I was hoping for an updated Barricade figure, but i was kinda hoping for the awesome Saleen squad car.

Red torso is killing me. Black and silver is the way to go.

Red Crotch & Tiny Feet.

Cool

I'm with the consensus here, this has got to be an updated Barricade. The head, hands, and if you look close at the feet they share the same shape as Barricade's. Probably goes about changing his form like BB did in the first film. Gonna be interesting too, we've seen to Barricade cars on a trailer waaaay back when info started comin' though about the sequel.

As for the toy, decent. The red is a bit garish, and lacks any real paint detailing. Hopefully this is a test shot or something.

Not a chance in hell this is Barricade.

Even though barricade got totally smashed up by prime in the movie (off screen, after bone crusher, and hence why prime was so late to the city battle), i dont think he would completely change his robot form.

It has to be a new character, god knows who, but it would be too hard to explain why this is barricade. It just isn't logical. Though the Transformers are able to easily change their alt. modes, I am not aware that they can change there robot modes, or faces...? Sure it looks SIMILAR, but of course it does, its a Bayformer.

This is far too a different change from Barricade. Why everyone is saying this is Barricade, I'll have no idea. It clearly isn't.

Does anyone have any other guesses to who it may be? Completely new character to the verse', or and existing?

Let's see: it looks like Barricade, it's got the same layout as Barricade, it's got Barricade's face, it's got Barricade's weapon.

Bumblebee upgrade, gotta be.

Frenzy was able to reconstruct himself from just a head, so it stands to reason that other Decepticons might be capable of the same thing.

The movie may even decide not to follow the comic, and he never actually got decapitated. I'm hoping that's the case as Barricade was one of the few things I liked about the movie.

TBH though, I'd rather he stay as a police cruiser than a silver thing, because his identity as a squad car makes up a significant part of his awesome.

Don't you mean Starscream?

This isn't the final production version, you can tell by the horrible red and the different grades of plastic. Plus the sell has censored something on the hood.

I dont know if this was already posted in one of the other "Audi R8 threads" , but I'm posting this anyway.. more pics of the toy heheh

How come people think this is Barricade? It doesn't look like Barricade at all. Different head, different botmode etc. It is more likely that this is a different bot altogether.

I wasn't expecting this to make it over to Autoblog, but apparently they're talking about the Audi-Cade debate too.

Because it's hard to tell one Bayformer from the next? *bricked*

keith david never did the voice of barricade it was a rumor from the first movie i think the same guy that did starscreams voice did barricade you can see the guy doing the voice over on youtube!

If this is Barricade I'm truly, sorely, dissapointed.
They should have switched him to a more..er..civilian 2010 Shelby GT500, or at least the 2010 Mustang GT.

One, and the only one, thing I despise about this movie.

Actually Keith David did voice Barricade in the games, but not the film. He was voiced by Jess Harnell in the film.

Oh, and I still think the Audi R8 is Barricade.

I was going to say the same thing.

I still say it reminds me of G1 Kickback.

I agree it looks an awful lot like Barricade. I do like the upper torso but the legs and feet leave something to be desired.

that is sooooooo barricade! bad ass barricade must get! looks better than the first one!
