New Transformers 2 Autos Revealed

Okay, sure, we don’t REALLY know which new Transformers will be appearing in Michael Bay’s Transformers 2. But we do have photos of new concept cars running around the TF2 movie set.

So lets take a look at the alt modes of some of the autobots and decepticons you might be seeing on the big screen come June 2009.

A red/orange 2009 Chevy Trax was spotted driving down Front Street with Bumblebee and the Chevy Beat that has been previously seen at the Smithsonian set. Since they have been seen at multiple locations traveling with the Autobots, I’m guessing they are part of the team.

Chevy Beat

The Twins

In our first Transformers Secrets Revealed article we told you about a new set of Autobots featured in the opening sequence. An old beat up ice cream truck split in two to form two smaller Transformers called The Twins. But we haven’t seen the Ice Cream Truck back in action since the Bethlehem Steel shoot which leads us to believe that The Twins might have found a new auto form, possibly as the Chevy Trax and Chevy Beat. But then again, that might take away from the coolness of two Transformers which combine together into one vehicle. Its also worth mentioning that there is one more car in the Chevy line of concept cars that hasn’t yet made an appearance, The Chevy Groove. The photo from the set comes from jalopnik.

Check out the rest of the unconfirmed line-up after the jump:

Autobots:

Optimus Prime as the Blue and Red Peterbilt 379EX


Bumblebee is a Yellow 2009 Chevy Camaro

Ratchet is a Lime Yellow 2008 Hummer H2Ironhide is a Black 2007 GMC Topkick C4500


Arcee is made up of three Pink/Purplecustom motocycles from RetroSBK. The above picture is my crappy artist rendering of what the bike probably might look like.

Stinger might be a Chevy Corvette ZR1. Photo below is not a color match.


Wheels is a blue RC toy Jeep.

Wheeljack might be a White 2009 SAAB Aero-X.

Decepticons:

Starscream is a Gray F-22 Raptor. Scale model spotted on set. [slashfilm]


Barricade is a Black 2008 Saleen S281 Extreme Mustang


Jetfire is a SR-71 Blackbird. [slashfilm]


Soundwave has been confirmed but has not been seen. And a Constructicon Earth Mover was listed in the call sheets, but never seen on set.

    The transforming is going to be somthing to see
  • Aqualeo
    It does sound like these concept cars are The Twins
  • Jello
    they are
  • I get the feeling T2 is gonna be one long car commercial...
  • Aqualeo
    jonny,

    I was worried about that in the first one, but it didn't really seem that way. Even with Bumble Bee "upgrading" to the new concept car didn't seem like a commercial
  • duca
    As soon as I see those concept photos I go 'argh'. I loved the first Transformers movie but only because I was to 'forget' they were all Chevys. I'm sorry, but when they're having 'contests' with Chevy and showing the Transformers in all the commercials it just becomes a giant commercial. Why do they have to be real car brands? It's so silly. Stupid movie costing too much money and needing corporate sponsorship >_<
  • Captain Awesome
    I don't say this very often about most modern cars. But that 2009 SAAB Aero-X is fucking pretty.
  • edward
    fuck transformers 2.
  • Captain Awesome
    By the way Peter, excellent photoshop work.

    I heard there are job openings at Pixar.
  • Rosario
    @jonny & aqualeo

    Im not concerned over the cars, im more concerned about the other product endorsements. In the first one, you could clearly tell when they were endorsing things. I mean we could all say what was shown, nokia, xbox, mountain due, bumble bee's upgrade etc. I don't mind them but just don't let it be so obvious.
  • Hooray! Another two hour long GM commercial! Yay!

    Damn product placement is ruining films. I honestly won't be surprised when the new Star Trek drops and all the bridge displays have little Nvidia stickers in the corner.
  • Captain Awesome
    SERIOUSLY. WHY IS A MOVIE BASED ON A TOYLINE 'SELLING-OUT' BY HAVING OTHER PRODUCTS PUT IN THE FILM.

    It's like they want to SELL something!
  • isaac
    jetfire ia autobot.
  • I'm thinking they should incorporate the Pixar pizza car. :)
  • Jackson
    Those Chevys look fucking lame.
  • adau
    Barricade has nummer 643 and not 055, wrong pic.
  • Wheeljack is now officially my favorite autobot. That saab looks just gorgeous!
  • I think having Jetfire as an SR-71 Blackbird is going to äber-awesome.

    And seeing that 2009 SAAB Aero-X transforming into a badass robot is going to be very cool.

    I thought Transformers was pretty awful, but the robots made it a movie. I can't see the sequel being any different, but with more transforming, and therefore better.
  • Tax
    You guys are lame, hello!!!, It's a movie, who gives a fuck if it's Chevy, ford, or whatever the fuck, you fuckers talk shit and act like you can do a better job, I sure don't see your names in the credits, ohh yeah, as far as the whole "commercial" thing, what's are guys retarded?. Micheal Jordan practically helped Nike become the house hold name that it is because he wore Air Jordan's on the court..If Chevy Want's to Give me cars and all I gotta do is promote them in my movie!! guess what fuckers, Park them right there... It's called business, learn some, you might make some money, otherwise.....Watch the movie, shut the fuck up and like it.. Dumb Shit's!!!

    DOB - 07-21-1974 Gen 1 fan.
  • Just STFU!!!
    the names directed toward the last fan they're going to complain they're going to whine just stfu and let them do it I can't to see the twins and I'm wondering wtf is up with the blue RC
  • Aaron
    o god this looks like it's going to be terrible. i just want Jazz to come back. and this character Wheels wasn't in the cartoon show. Micheal Bay you suck.
  • bryce
    this is where the info is incorrect it's not wheels it's wheelie
  • Patrick
    cmon people.... didn't anyone see the original 1985 cartoon movie??? it was a giant toy commercial!!!! and it fucking whooped ass no other movie kills the main characters in the first 25 minutes, and unleashes a whole new set of whoop ass characters. it was brilliant. if they made this a giant toy comercial, we would see the best movie ever made. it would have massive transforming, and characterization... who gives a fuck if they want to sell toys. heck ill be buying them! consider that!
  • Shannon
    Yo, Aaron. Just a heads up. Wheels was in one of the original episodes. It was a little blue 6-wheel car in Prime's trailer.
  • transformerfantilltheend
    I am one of the worlds biggest transformers fan but the ford vs chevy concept is so STUPID!!! the only vehicles i like (from what i am seeing on transformers 2) are the camaro and the sr71 blackbird and maybe the saab. but the stupid future small cars of chevy shows no creativity as far as car choosing. I mean, what are they going to do with hot rod if there is another sequel that involves him? are they gonna make him a classic or is he gonna be a futuristic looking badass? on another note. i love the blackbird but with cgi, why can't they produce the valkryie look. now that would be creative. I just don't know what micheal bay was thinking as far as chevy vs ford. two of the worlds least creative car designers. except for the camaro and thats because they actually had some japanese designer design it. lets get some real american designs going.
  • ANGEL
    I AGREE WITH YOUR CGI COMMENT
  • Transformers Fat Head
    Correction Ratchet is a Lime Green H1 not an H2
  • dylan
    you dumb ass. hes an h2. my dad works at a car delership andhe said its an h2
  • bob
    inow i siad WTF?:D
  • bob
    no retard he is a hummer H2! Dickhead!
  • bob
    you guys are dumb as fuck cars turning into robots and kicking ass all over the place sounds good to me .
  • tyronne
    this is going to be another GM feast! i hate this! we need a variety of cars. Lexus, Mercs, formula one car etc
  • Shut up, you no u like the movie and the way they transform. Shut the fuck you with the car shit. It is what it is. You couldn't make a better movie so just shut it. Damn some fuckin stupid some on here. And can't wait 4 the movie.
  • ANGEL
    ONLY FAGGOT FORD LOVERS WOULD HATE GM PUTTING THERE PRODUCTS IN THE MOVIE, NOT OUR FAULT OUR CARS ARE WAY FASTER THAN YOUR POS FORDS
  • ujjual

  • Bryce
    I just think it will be good to see who they get arcee to transform as she it set to be not one bike but 3 as seen in the trailer(not every easy) just after a transformer(guessing jolt) comes crashing though a building and then transforms and drives away here is a blow up photo i found [IMG]http://i515.photobucket.com/albums/t351/thefallen...

  • tox

  • David
    I can't wait 2 c this movie but it's annoying the way they only really use Chevys and GM cars when they cud use like lamborghinis, but don't get me wrong that camaro is sweet.
  • Ryan
    Is it just me or does Optimus have a fuckin sexy voice!!! He sounds so wise!!!
  • bustamonte
    what car is Jazz?
  • Xero
    wheeljack (if in the movie cause i cant remember) isn't a SAAB in the movie.
    and i didn't see a ZR1 in the movie either...
    thats all.
  • Tanner
    first off there is no wheeljack in the movie nor is there a stinger, and there are three street bikes in the movie one is pink, one is purple and the other is blue and the only corvette in the movie is a 2009 version of the old 1960's stingray named sideswipe also there is another car called the chevy volt or his name as jolt. and finally rachet is not a lime green hummer h2 he is a yellow hummer h2 ambulance car. and duh mudflap and skides are apart of the team y else would they be with the autobots.
