Images and Videos from Transformers: The Last Knight Animatronics Exhibition in Brazil

The Dinobots look cool. The others take a few liberties with the general aesthetic and design though. Like strange knock offs.

Though not 100% accurate,those robots just felt good to be around with.You feel the dedication they have put into building them.Some even have bliking lights.
Here's a trailer for the same exposition but from another mall in the country.

Nice. Mudflap looks a lot less silly than he did in the movie.

While Transformers: The Last Knight is winding down in theaters, we still have plenty of TLK content to cover! Coming from Industrial Light and Magic artist Thang Le and concept designer Furio Tedeschi, we have several amazing pieces of conceptual designs from the fifth Transformers movie. Some of the designs below made it in to the film, like Quintessa and Infernocus, and some were cut, such as the Optimus Primal design! It's always interesting to see the development stages of large movies such as TLK, and comparing to the final product. Check all the designs out below!

Damn that's some nice stuff.

And I like the Primal even though not much of a Beast Wars fan... what the heck was this for? I like how it has Prime's helmet integrated in the gorilla head .

...Winston?

Do we know if this Primal is supposed to be a totally new character, or somehow Optimus Prime? The helmet and face design is there, makes me wonder if Quintessa was going to turn Optimus into this rather than calling him Nemesis Prime.

first thing that came to my mind when reading that.

All we have is this concept design. No other info.

I actually really like this

You know, there is the potential for a live-action Beast Wars film. Just take out the humans please; I see flesh and bones every day.

This whole movie made me angry. I can see Quintessa.. as far as I can see.. did no wrong. For Cybertron to survive.. their greatest enemy.. Unicron.. the most evil chaotic being in the universe.. MUST be destroyed. Earth.. is Unicron. Earth.. is filled with beings that have done their best to hunt down and kill ALL transformers, the good ones AND the bad ones. Earth is clearly the badguy! And to top it all off.. nothing in the film was really resolved. Every one was all happy and high on victory, ready to go home.. but theres one problem.. this MASSIVE FREAKING PLANET STILL DANGLING ITS NUTS IN YOUR ATMOSPHERE AND SCRAPING OFF ENTIRE CITIES.
ugh.. angry.

Harambe Prime.

Despite me not being a huge fan of the BW aesthetic, that Primal looks awesome.

It's called cliffhanger so that we have something to focus on in Tf6 unless they conveniently misremember what they set up like AOE to TLK.

love the design aside form the helmet just being slapped on there. i know the designs a bit different but its the same thing.

also this is more like optimus kong. this would be the biggest optimus in history. not sure what kind of disguise this would provide.

we have some new concept art for you, from an old name: Josh Nizzi has shared on Instagram a look at his version of World War II Bumblebee, as he appears in promotional material and scenes of Transformers: The Last Knight! Check out the image we mirrored below for your viewing pleasure, and let us know what you think of this design.

Seems to be based on more on AOE Bumblebee's design.

Hasbro/Takara, if you aren't already making a toy of WWII Bee, you better damn well get started.

Funny how his guns look almost identical to SillySpringer's custom Beetle guns

If they made a masterpiece version of this, they could build as many as they want, and there wouldn't be enough.

I talked to Josh on the post on instagram and here are some interesting tidbits.

1 Bumblebee here was going to be a British armored scout like the mk1 but that was changed to whatever the white car in the movie was.

2: Josh designed some of the prison bots (Nitro Zeus and the other decepticons) and in his words

Yes they were based off of bots from other films. I think maybe the idea was seeing how those bots changed after being in prison.

This suggests that perhaps these Decepticons are either the original models (Onslaught being Long haul, Nitro Zeus being Shockwave, etc) or that these guys were from DOTM as the Decepticon reinforcements from the moon.

My head canon is that Onslaught is the same guy as the Garbage truck guy from DOTM it makes sense



Also on a thread on Tfw2005 Josh said he was going to upload WW2 Hot Rod concept art tomorrow he also told me he will eventually show off the Prison Decepticon concept art and there will probably be other stuff too.

Still bummed we haven't got a WWII Bee toy. That art looks sick

Josh Nizzi has been updating his site and his Tf5 section is now open!
http://www.joshnizzi.com/portfolio/transformers5/

All there is right now is the Bumblebee pic and Megatron but Josh said he will upload WW2 Hot Rod tommorow and he told me he will upload the prison Decepticons at some point.





Take a look at his other movies too such as doctor strange

A little while ago we saw some new concept art from Transformers: The Last Knight, coming from artist Josh Nizzi, depicting Bumblebee's design during World War II. Now, after much anticipation, he's posted the WW2 version of Hot Rod, as well! He shared it on his Instagram, saying:

WW2 Hot Rod. This was my favorite version based off a Sherman tank. Base Hot Rod design was done by ILM. #transformersthelastknight #transformers

It's a very cool design, so check it out below!

Toy please.

With the exception of Optimus Prime from the fourth movie, Since we've already seen him, I'd like to see some concept art of the movie Transformers looking more like their original forms.

It's transformers live action movie not transformers cartoon movie bumblebee will get one maybe it could be as far as it goes I really want to see ironhide be minivan I want laugh very hard at that look oh let it happen that will really look intmaiting in battle,.

Megatron transforms in to giant hand gun only can held by transformers not humans that be funny lord megatron why are you not fighting with us because I am giant hand gun I need one of you fools pick me up pull my trigger

Oh or maybe the nice concept sports car Hot rod originally turned into with a the cool looking Robot mode, that didn't appear like a large version of C3-PO from the Phantom Menace.

Like I said, we saw them do it with Prime in the previous movie, and that was the last movie toy I've bought. Although I may pick up a couple of headmasters from this movie line, just because I need bodies for the extra heads that came with the mini toys.

Hot Rod has his design made and that's that there's no point in being all "he could of been this" what's done is done.


In my opinion this Hot Rod is still better then that whiny idiot prick from the G1 series.

So much badass in 1 pic.

These WW2 designs make me wish there was a movie or a series that took place in the World Wars and the characters all had this kind of (steampunk?) design.

That would be something original for once setting wise instead of the modern day or the future.

Furio Tedeschi who uploaded some Knight helmets, Primal and created Squeeks design has uploaded a full shot of one of the knights on his instagram.

Yeah but with less trains and more variation in alt modes, most of the characters would be military vehicles and their colors would be like what we have in these concepts where the colors are still there but their not bright or flashy.

The military look these guys have is a consent reminder that the Autobots and Decepticons are soldiers from two army factions who are consistently trying to destroy the other like in the theme song, like imagine them charging at each other and some Humans with the Autobots and some Humans on their own side like say Germany or there is a firefight and all of them are in trenches or cover as bullet and missiles fly across the battlefield kind of like the opening of TLK but without the knights and more guns.


I also really like Halo, Xcom and other sci-fi military stuff so this is right up my alley.

This'll be posted shortly!

Well, the concept art starts comin' and it don't stop comin'! Originating again from artist Furio Tedeschi's Instagram, we have another look at the early designs for the knight characters for Transformers The Last Knight. Tedeschi captioned the piece with this:

Guardian Knight Concept from TF5 #transformers5 #transformers #transformersthelastknight #knight #robot #movie #concept #conceptart #cg

Take a look at the design yourself, mirrored below, and thanks to Seibertronian Deadput for alerting us to the concept art!

No, those aren't Steampunk, they weren't even Dieselpunk. Cogman was more in-line with the Steampunk aesthetic.

Yeah I did not think it was the right word but I ain't no wordmaster.

But you know what I mean right?

I agree on the point of a WWII based transformers film. There is some awesome potential there for designs, and Hot Rod and Bee both look good with that design

D-Maximus_Prime wrote:I agree on the point of a WWII based transformers film. There is some awesome potential there for designs, and Hot Rod and Bee both look good with that design

And Bulldog, Edmund's guard though he's a WWI tank rather than WWII. That's already three potential World War military TF toys right there.

A reminder that we're still keeping two separate threads for spoilers and non-spoilers, as the movie has yet to open in Japan (two days left). Thank you!

Why did it have to be snakes?

Once again from Furio Tedeschi

Fellow Seibertronian Deadput has spotted some more beastly concept art for unused character designs in Transformers: The Last Knight - and this time, Furio Tedeschi is back, but it's no gorilla: it's a gigantic snake! Check out the image mirrored below, and let usssss know what you think.

Transformer Snake unused concept for Transformers 5 #transformers5 #transformers #transformersthelastknight #mech #robot

Now that is something I want to see in the movies.

That is seriously cool!
