Of course the "presence" of Megatron was there. KSI copied his brain and put it into a body that Megatron himself manipulated the KSI scientists into building. But without his spark, which was stated as a Transformer's soul, Galvatron cannot be Megatron. He himself said during the fight, he did not have a soul. So what happened to Megatron's spark? It was never specifically stated that it was destroyed at the end of DoTM. Prime ripped his head and spine out, and there were a lot of sparks, but that doesn't necessarily mean the spark was destroyed. And if indeed it WAS, then it's impossible for Galvatron to be a sentient reincarnation of Megatron, as a Transformer defines it, because there is no soul present if there is no spark present. So I stand by my statement, Galvatron is NOT actually Megatron, only a copy of him. And the question remains: where is Megatron's spark? We know where the head is. At KSI. Where is the spark?Sabrblade wrote:"Within that manmade prototype I fought, I sensed the presence of Megatron."Rodimus Prime wrote:Because he never was Galvatron.

I like the movie designs since they try to be unique compared to the blocky gundam g1 look I'm getting sick of.
Seriously though wheel feet were some of the best things to come out of there.
Yeah, honestly, wheel feet were a fantastic idea.
Yeah but the movieverse didn't "invent" them.

Well, those are a singular wheel in place of legs, and (in that mode) non-moving treads for feet respectively. Bayverse was kinda the first to think of having normal legs with wheels for feet that act like roller skates.

This is the first design I can honestly say I'm disappointed or underwhelmed by. I liked his AOE design much better. His AOE look is probably the only Bumblebee design in the history of Transformers I've genuinely liked.

Not entirely sure what else to say. He's... looking a lot like he always does.

Leave your thoughts in the comments, do.you.like this design more or less than his 2010 design? Or his Age Of Extinction design? And remember to keep those optics and audio sensors tuned to Seibertron.com for all the latest and greatest Transformers news.

"Alright 'Bee, the costume designer wants to go back to your old outfit, it's what the audience knows. I'm thinkin' classic! I'm thinkin' iconic! It's so YOU, baby! Yeah! Okay here's your motivation: you realized that you copied the look of the guy who was trying to be a copy-cat of you, and that's not really a good message for the kids, so you decided to go back to being yourself. BEE yourself, hey that's good... Get marketing on that, make it a hashtag... Oh, forgot to tell ya, we changed your bra again, nbd, you know the drill."

Between the first three films and AOE they changed the design quite a bit. This one looks to be a combination of the two. In AOE all of his parts were fitted very close to each other and streamlined to look very organic, or at least not like an identifiable car. The big difference, here, is the chest piece which is more identifiable as a car bumper split in two like his original designs. The other thing is that the face mask is basically the one from AOE.
Personally, I'd like for them to go more classic and vehicle like with all of these designs, since it's still hard to tell what they actually turn into. Crosshair and Megatron especially. I also really, really, really despise the transformations in the 4th movie where the decepticons just explode into bits and reform. So, I hope they put the kabosh on that.

That's gonna be a bit difficult when the movie after this is called "The Bumblebee Movie".

The changes on Bee are always easy to spot why is everyone saying stuff like this I don't get it like what the heck.

Its all one big blurr to me. I didnt even notice that he didnt even have wings in AOE.
I can tell it much more on Optimus.

At the very least people can tell his chest is different with each movie right?
I think story wise Bumblebee keeps upgrading his disguise because he is a vain character remember when he went and scanned a new car mode after Mikela called him a piece of crap?

His chest was different between ROTF and DOTM?
I dont think people can tell that easily. Could you tell which movie this bee is from for instance?

That one's either from the first one or ROTF. I don't know the differences between his chest in the first one and ROTF, but I do know that in DOTM, his chest was compacted a tiny bit and had two arm/bar/lever things going across the bottom of the two car front half boob things. That's far from a technical description, but they are fairly obvious if you compare the two. The difference between the first 3 movies' Bumblebee and AOE Bumblebee are way more obvious, of course.

That's the TF1 design. ROTF Bumblebee had black squares around his fog lights or whatever, and DOTM Bublebee had extra pieces covering his chest/abdomen area.

Yes for example the pic you have is movie one and not even a final render at that.
Here is a real render of Movie 1 Bee
Here is ROTF and DOTM respectively with similar poses/renders.
Chest's are different and Bumblebee's shoulders are larger in DOTM and this was stated by people who worked on the movie during DOTM and they said it was to show how more mature Bee was at that point.
The differences are pretty obvious Bumblebee is never exactly the same in each movie.

I mean, to be fair, they're not that obvious unless you're actually looking for differences.
