    If this had been announced a week ago, I'd probably agree with this being the weirdest Transformer idea yet, but I think The Simpsons took that trophy with their unspecified "sex-toy" transformer (and note that it was _not_ the one that was called "Three-Way").

    Pretenders. Yeah. Right. I call bullshit on this. Pretenders are retarded then, and they're retarded now.

    Hot blond robot with an energy weapon for an arm, eh? Are they so desperate they need to steal ideas from Terminator 3?


    They should save this idea for when they run the franchise into the ground but still want to make a buck. "Oh look, Transformers look exactly like people now! No more big expensive CG robots, just regular actors and actresses with implied robot interiors!"

    i call bullshit. i think this is a bogus leak. Bay vowed to flood the interwebz with fake leaks to throw off the fanboys.


    I'm sure some of them are legit. But this sounds too dumb for even Bay's low standards.

    @putch: It's entirely possible that this is a fake... does seem as though there's something weird about Alice, judging from that set video.

    The only way he's going to find out is if she tells him she likes to WD-40 instead of KY Jelly.

    @ManchuCandidate: Wd-40 is not a lubricant! 3 in 1 oil is. WD40 is pressurized kerosene. It will "cure" squeaks, but only b/c it cleans away any debris/grit which is causing the squeak. Sorry.

    We're almost achieving "Sproose Goose" levels of bad ideaness here.
    Half the writers at IDW are convulsing as they read this.

    Pretenders were a bad idea then, and aren't any better now.


    Also, Alice? Can they pick a more subtle name?
