SUGOOOIIIIi!!!

Man, I want to build a sweet robot :(

That's why Pak and I build Zoids. You'd have to hunt Ebay or Big Bad Toy Store (for now. The series has been canceled and restarted numerous times here in the US), but you can build these for starters:





Although if you're talking about the kind that level cities and take over the world, I can't help you there.  :)

  We've got tons of them NOW. Not sure what that says about our level of maturity.  ;D

  The one we're really wanting now is "Rainbow Jerk", a Japanese Zoid that's a peacock. We think it's hilarious:

Not the most frightening robot.

I wonder if he is insulted being called a "Jerk"?    Man, he must be rude.

Omega Supreme wasnt a battleship

It's hard to hide as a battleship.
It's harder to hide as a rocket.

OS would be a ship for somewhat the same reason Megatron wasn't a pistol: It just wouldn't work.

HiKeeba!

I heard a rumor that what they meant by "Revenge of the Fallen" actually means The Fallen. In case you don't know or didn't read the link, The Fallen is one of the original 13 transformers and he had betrayed Primus and was Unicron's most loyal herald(Did I mention that the Fallen is on fire and made Grimlock look like a wimp?). Now as much as I like the Fallen, I don't really think he should belong in this film and I think that they would be going into too complex of a storyline when the first movie was fairly simple storyline. Besides, chances are that they would probably mess up the character pretty badly.

No, it won't be the Fallen, or Unicron, or anything that might be too big or abstract for what Hollywood sees as the "Average American" viewer.

It'll be Megatron, with some gimmick. Just accept it.

Fuzzy Necromancer

I dunno. Silver Surfer had Galactus, so why not Unicron in Transformers II? It could be part of a trend, the summer action blockbuster with a planet-eater sequel, and hollywood loves trends =o

True, I didn't expect them to do anything so absurdly cosmic, but they DID kinda chicken out with Galactus.

I don't know if you've ever been in a small room with a peacock, I'd be scared of a giant robotic one, those are some pretty scary game fowl. :speechless:

I want that one too :)

I followed your link there, and the master of entrophy... is on fire? Does that make sense?

I mean, these are magical alien robots who transform into cars! You can't go around not making sense with such a mundane grounding!
