Can any one do the "transforming" sound effects ?

Just a tad sad that it's playing the part which was normally reserved for a VW Beetle !!

For those who are complaining that Bumblebee MUST be a VW Bug… I agree, it would be best, but VW has refused to allow it. Just as, from what I’ve read, Lamborgini has no desire to be associated with Transformers anymore.

I’ve heard Prime may very well be a semi, so the firetruck info could be incorrect. We’ll see when the movie gets closer to release. BTW, Inferno was the firetruck in the G1 Transformers.

As much as I’d like a movie true to the original 80’s versions, let’s face it, it’s NOT the 80’s anymore. Most of the cars and whatnot that the G1 Transformers were based on aren’t even made anymore.

Take Soundwave for example. Who sees cassette decks like that anymore? Soundwave was my favorite Decepticon and I hope they find a way to bring his most iconic traits into the new movie (ie- voice and smaller Transformers contained in his chest cavity), but I am not so stuck in the 80’s as to expect him to be a cassette deck.

I’m not too keen on the Bumblebee name on the Camaro, but who knows. This new Bumblebee might shake the ‘cute n friendly’ stigma surrounding the name. From what I’ve heard, the Police Car Mustang has a hand in destroying Bumblebee’s 70’s Camaro body. Let’s hope when he comes back as a 5th Gen he kicks the Mustangs @$$
