I've heard a rumor from another message board (tiny) that they are working on new Xmod for the Transformer movie.

Bumblebee: Camero (teaser pics)
Barricade: Mustang (teaser pics)
Jazz-a silver Pontiac Solstice
Ironhide-a black GMC Topkick pickup truck
Ratchet-a lime green Hummer H3 ambulance.

And they're customizable with goofy looking weapons. http://www.tinyrc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23478

What'd ya mean goofy looking weapons? That's what cop cars look like in Tijauana Hombre.

That Camaro is awesome. I wonder if they used the same tooling on the mustang as in the 04 mustang?

Probably, you know large corporate companies. Only thing more that Mustang has is a lightbar and a pushbar. Not much else. Anyways, I'll still like one. Don't know why though.

Depending on looks, I'm probably going to end up getting either the Pony, Solstice, or Topkick (wtf is a topkick anyway?)

And I *REALLY* don't get the point of an H3 ambulance. I want either an Econoline van style ambulance, or an Econoline hi-cube style ambulance. Not some soccer-mom ride with a lightbar and ambulance stickers.

Bumblebee was a VW BEETLE, not a Camero!!! And the Ambulance was a Toyota minivan, not a wannabe hummer! [/rant]

I agree completely :o I really wanted to see more original characters.
Even in a preview clip of the movie, it seems that bumble bee is an older camaro- 70's.

Ratshacks lists of Transformers stuff....if you haven't seen it yet.


MicroStarscream looks pretty cool :-o
