That's what I thought. Looks like the old camper van.

I was just gonna say this. The gray and blue color scheme seems to correspond to the first, satellite version of him (though apparently darker), and while we've been TOLD he'd be a pickup truck, that could have merely been disinformation and misdiretion. This mode, while admittedly blurry, would work well, IMHO... especially if the back of this van-esque vehicle could contain his various "minions."

I wouldn’t mind an Payload repaint though, he was one of my favorites from the movie line.
Posted by dragons on December 10th, 2008 @ 2:48pm CST
its simaler to payload but not an exact replica of him looks like funny looking garbage truck never seen garbage truck with front end like that kinda looks like decepticon logo is on the hood.

I agree with the Soundwave crowd. That was what first jumped into my mind. The coloring was what first made me think Soundwave, and then the fact that we have already seen a non-earth mode Soundwave supported my conclusion. Plus this truck, unlike a Chevy pickup, is of a similar scale to a satellite.
Does anyone else see a Red Bull logo on the side

EXACTLY! I mean, look at it. It's some sort of truck with a big tralier-like thing on its back and over its top. Not the mention the orange & yellow designs on its side that looks like fire!
I'm thinking this is some wannabe Rodimus Prime design.

Anyway it looks kinda bland... I assume/hope it will get more paint apps before it is finished.

On the other hand, my n00b eyes say it's Rodimus Prime Daltonics Edition.

That's actually a TF Scout Class once again. And saying it's Soundwave is clueless, Soundwave's alt is completely different from that. Even if it's his earth mode, the truck is too small.
These are the new pics that have shown up from TF08.net which proves what I've said.
(And what's with everyone's bad guesses as to what it is? Sure the naming is okay but actually guessing it's a remolded Movie Payload etc? That's ridiculous. Other than repaints, Hasbro isn't likely to recycle stuff and whip it out.
The only thing returning to the movie line will probably be the Movie screen bots and cons. Other than that, everything else will be original.)

Well, the first Movie line DID have a Scout class, technically: the Real Tech line or whatever they were called, plus the Scout repaints that Target sold exclusively under the Movie line.
But hopefully THESE Scouts are based on characters from the movie. If not, at least they're new molds instead of repaints, and vehicles instead of fake watches and MP3 players.

These new images show us a misstransformed robot-mode and a clearer look at the truck-mode. It looks to be scout and an Autobot.
Happy guessing on who or what it might be.

The level of detail is not there and the transformation is somewhat simple.
Just my $0.02
Posted by Riotflea on December 11th, 2008 @ 12:58pm CST
Yikes.
Other than being supremely bland, it has something I hated on the helicopter a few years back... where the shoulders meet the body.
On the helicopter, his arms were just like HANGING off the wings.
In this thing, the arms are just hanging off the panels coming off it's back.
Insanity. Pure insanity.

It's a scout class.. Scout classes don't have details and it's not even transformed. Definitely far from a knockoff.

I don't think it is Red Bull, no yellow sun between the two bulls. Looks a bit like a skull of an animal to me. Maybe a bull Not sure though.
Also, I think his shoulders must hurt much more than Hot Shot's
