Few More Commercial Stills

I had not planned on posting any more stills from the Superbowl commercial but I liked these pictures from the 1080p version so decided why not. Thanks to Nathan for providing them.

The RH400 Constructicon, right before it destroys a few helicoptors. Note the giant wheel behind its head and the attached axels so easy to swing that wheel underneath for increased mobility.


The RH400 is one ugly, but awesome looking Transformer. That wheel is now underneath allowing for on the move destruction.


Awesome freeze, this is what was being filmed back on August 28th at the Queensway Bridge and Shoreline Drive. Who would have though some explosions would turn into something like this? Optimus is about 1/3 its size. The level of detail is amazing.


Megatron holding Sam down (rather gently considering). I like the detail of hieroglyphics on the leg right above Sam's belly.


The 3 Arcees chasing the Decepticon Audi. One pink, one blue, other probably purple. All rather oddly shaped. What ever is planned Transformation wise, I get the feeling it will be astonishing.

  3. how do you know thats megatron and not the fallen

    ReplyDelete
  4. Yes, they are. Only one of them can be Arcee and because those images look more Autobots behind Audi R8 Decepticon. They are all like transforming to RetroSBk bikes. I believe mostly that it's pink bike who is Arcee. My theory is that blue bike is Chromia.

  5. Because The Fallen wouldn't be RUSTED as if from water damage.

  6. hey...loook closely at the three bikes .....
    the one at the left is clearly Arcee....she has the same design as TF1....
    the one at the righ seems to be the blue bike we saw pictures of....maybe his name will be blurr
    the one in the middle seems to have that same design as knock out....i know knok out is green....but maybe is a repaint of the purple bike....

  9. The RH400 Constructicon delivers the devastating blow to Optimus.

  10. One side of the Construction says RH400 and the other side says RN400.

    a police car! just look at the left side of that large "ball" of debris. its standing on nothing, like the bridge is still there...

    ReplyDelete
  13. you can see only the front part of the police car btw... it looks like its still on the bridge but the bridge just isnt there anymore...

  14. Can someone help me with something? Regarding the pic with the 3 bikes - I see the pink one. But from the other 2, which one is the blue one and which is the purple, I can't seem to figure out the colours of the other 2?

    ReplyDelete
  15. glad i could help with these pics.

    And looking at the third image again i can see the car too lol. looks like ILM forgot something lol.

    and for those who don't think thats megatron. go look at the concept art for him and the screens from the game site. the legs have tank treads on the back and are very large. also the left hand has very small fingers. that and the rust all point to megatron.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Maybe Arcee is like Reflector; 3 robots with one brain. Typical woman, eh?

    ReplyDelete
  17. i can see the police car ur on about but having just watched the trailer again it looks like its in mid flip.

    ReplyDelete
  18. I agree with the third pic. ILM didn't make a mistake. It's just a screencap illusion. Think of the screencap like a strobe flash and makes the police car appear like it's floating, it actually isn't. I mean, the bridge exploding is like really freakin' fast and the car just assumes normal physics and "floats" to an extent where it's almost approaching flip.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I agree with LionBoogy. ILM would NOT make a mistake like that. It's probably in mid-flip or mid-fall.

    Can't wait to see the fully-rendered, fully-complete VFX in four months!

  20. can somebody explain to me why the wheels on that rh400 is round ant it sapose to be like tank threat somebody please explain that me im so confuse about it

    Ok seriously people! It's ok to debat all you want and each and everyone of you have your own opinion!

    But seriously think of it this way...

    Go watch the teaser trailer and see if you can spot the "mistake".It'll go by so fast that you wont be able to see it.

    That's just my opinion tho ya'll got your own and if you wanna debat over it go ahead!

  22. the car in the third pic is in mid flip look at the trailer when it gets close to that scene keep pressing the pause and play button you will see the car you will sft and see the top of the car the number on it and sirens

    ReplyDelete
  23. adding to my last comment the police car does two flips and and hits the the building on the left its in for the entire seen

  24. Arcee is the pink bike but the blue and purple bike I think is Chromia and Elita 1. Check the links below guys.

  26. Am I the only one who thinks the large constructicon will be the Devastator we all remember? I know it only is the shovel mover machine but it seems like it's already humongous, and that the writers seems to only put in some homages to G1 but never complete the original form. So while we think "construction vehicle spotted in the trailer must automatically mean there are other parts that will combine to form Devastator" I think the writers have to pare down to what's realistic and doable in movie form. Have we seen any other leaked Constructicon vehicles? I haven't see any.

  27. Am I the only one who thinks the large constructicon will be the Devastator we all remember?

    Propably yes. I mean, yes, you are the only one :P I still think, that it is just a part of Devastator. Especialy, when you consider, that there were people at Toy Fair that was few days ago, and saw Devastator toy. He was two feet tall.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Also they said they saw footage of the mixer in his chest sucking things up! So this is just part of devastator! That means one bad azz bot! ALL HAIL STARSCREAM!!!!!!!

  29. Although this isn't pictured in this article, I have a question about the shot of Starscream and Sam.

    I think people have come to the conclusion that this scene takes place at the Bethlehem Steel Plant, but when I watched it in HD, I thought I saw the Eiffel Tower in the bottom left corner. The camera is low and looking up, and I think it looks like the bottom of the Eiffel Tower. Maybe more than just Sam's parents scenes take place in Paris?

    What are your thoughts?

  30. For the shot of Optimsu Prime grappling with the huge construction vehicle, although the VFX have yet to be fully rendered and completed, I hope that they make the non-transformers VFX better. I know that most people will be focussing on what is going on between Optimus and the Decepticon, but the CG cars on the exploding bridge and the CG car ricocheting off of the parking complex on the left could stand to be a bit better, in my opinion. But, for a 30 second teaser, AMAZING!

  31. the decepticon holding down sam looks more like starscream to me

    ReplyDelete
  32. I did a couple of image edits for the bikes.

  33. The fingers holding down sam are clearly Megatron's from the leaked images. The tire tread foot also give it away.

  35. can somebody explain to me why the wheels on that rh400 is round ant it sapose to be like tank threat somebody please explain that me im so confuse about it

  36. To the last Anonymous:

    On the toy, the tank-tracks can be changed to circular or the regular tracks. I think this points to the construction in the movie being able to do the same, either round "wheels" or tank-tracks.

  37. it loooks more like starscream that holds sam down...

    I agree, the one bouncing off the parking garage looks like a plastic model. You can see through the windows and fenders from the bottom of the car.

  39. people who watch teasers frame-by-frame looking for CGI mistakes should not be allowed to watch movies
