It is not associated with nor endorsed by Hasbro or Takara Tomy. Not enough people credit Spielberg with that, they'd rather just blame bay Like it or not, we're stuck with him being a poor man's E.T. He and his dumb voice gimmick are too valuable to Paramount for them to give up either, especially after the most recent TF movie they made was specifically for him and his gimmick. And it was the movie version of Bumblebee that became the standout version of the character, then one that made Hasbro boatloads of money. Before then, Bumblebee was just another name in a long list of Average Joes that only the hardcore fans cared about, with his role having since been replaced by the likes of Cheetor and Hot Shot. Like it or not, the first movie is what brought Bumblebee back into prominence and made him a household name for the brand. ![]() These Hollywood chums see it as too iconic to eliminate.It's funny that this could be considered "iconic", as Bee was around long before the Bay movies, but I agree with you that they won't do that Was he, though? He certainly disappeared into obscurity for over a decade after Hasbro lost his name. Sabrblade wrote:You know they won't do that. Uh in gist I think the vehicle modes for the main characters are decided before or during the script, so I think Mirage (who I'm going to guess with the info we have is at the least the third main Autobot) was written in the script as Mirage which would explain why the personalty/character traits describe to us sound way more like a Mirage then any form of Jazz since the latter has never been anti-authority or a "shapeshifter" which is an ability that fits the word "Mirage" as much as going invisible does.Īlso depends on whether the movie makers pick the vehicle modes or a licenser donates a vehicle to be used in return for promoting the vehicle, which depends on each character for example 2007 Optimus/Ratchet were picked while ROTF Sideways and AOE Drift were the latter. I think it was similar with the Decepticons back in 2007, all the Autobots were designed as those characters but Barricade/Blackout/Brawl all went through several different names including Soundwave for the former two cons, heck even though Hasbro sees Brawl as well Brawl the name Devastator ended up in the film because it was the name Bay preferred although "officially" it's an error. ![]() It probably depends on how prominent the characters are, if I recall Hound and Drift in AOE were always concepted as those characters with those names while Crosshairs was a design made first and such before his final name was decided on just that "we have this Corvette Autobot" Transformers Exhibit at Children's Museum in Indianapolis.Transformers The Last Knight Global Premiere Events ».Subscribe to Twincast/Podcast with iTunes.Transformers: Rise of the Beasts Movie News.Transformers: Rise of the Beast Movie News. ![]()
