UH this is not new news. This was all announced, complete with this story, pics (including the new toys) and explanation, a week and a half ago at tfw2005.com. This, in NO way, was "just put up" on the arker. It's been there for a little while now. If you want the latest news on all things Transformers on an English website, go to TFW. And NO, I don't own the site, nor am I even a member. I just check up on it to see Transformers news, because I'm an adult collector.

well.... just because a toy comes out with a nice story on the box doesnt mean it WILL be on the movie. we saw this on the iron man toys line up.. there we found stealth armor, satellite armor, hulkbuster, etc etc
dont get me wrong, i would like to see mega-WHAT? back. but i will not get all carried away

All I hope is that Optimus actually puts up a decent fight this time against Megatron. Optimus got owned in the last meeting, and if it wasn't for Even Steven and the Allspark, he would be dead.

Yeah I was really disappointed at how much of a robot-wuss that Optimus was in the first film..He was never like that in the cartoon form the 80's..he was the go to guy fer sure!!
Let's hope he is more sturdy is the sequel..

But Megatron isnt the Fallen right?

not megatron isnt hte fallen, but did he say the amount of time megatron will get, i mean he could be just in a cameo in a flashback scene (remember the prequel comics, the fallen is responble for the war and he was the original leader of hte decepticons), and he could also just be in a stinger scene at the end of hte movie like the way nick fury was in iron man

@ HOMER,
Read the whole article, the confirmation doesn't come from the toy, it comes from Roberto Orci saying Megatron will be back.

@ Charles,
TF2005 put up the Megatron pics from The-Arker on the 22nd, the day before I wrote this.

It makes u wonder just how much screen time Megatron will get, could it be that the Fallen is defeated by the Autobots and then out of desperation Starscream and the other decepticons revive Megatron. Or something like that. I'd love to see Megatron and the Fallen fight. Lots of rumors. I've heard that Starscream, Ratchet, Prime all die in ROTF. Hope it's just that rumors. June 24th,2009 We will all find out as the war continues. "Till All Are One"

No surprise the character is included, they would be stupid for him not to be. Forget the actual movie, having him in will make money off of merchandise and posters and action figures.

good point Craig,
After all, this movie serves as the biggest toy commercial ever, and Hasbro will stock shelves world-wide with this stuff multiplied by all their extended-universe products which are not even in the film.

@Rob Agree completely, this movie isn't just making money, it's revamping a brand. And I'm sure the DVD release will come out in time for the holidays as well will more updated toys as well.

Further proof can be found in the trailer, at one point sam is pined down by a "mysterious" transformer but with a closer look at both the "concept" art and the trailer u can see that it is in fact megatrons hand (his left) also note that sams facial expression is more of a surprised look rather then scared (surprised to see megatron perhaps?) that's my oppinion, check it out for yourself and let me know what u think

I still have my Megatron from when I was a kid, he was my favorite one because he was an awesome gun haha.

Can we still have Megatron's screechy annoying voice from the cartoon this time, please?
It had soooooo much more personality.
And Starscream should sound equally annoying.
This is absolutely necessary.

@ Richard,
It's probably worthy quite a bit if it's fully intact :)

@ Eddie:
I noted the smae point you are making when the teaser trailer came out.. That same scene where he is pinned down, look at the leg in the background, you can see some type of 'tracks' (which are inline with the concept art) and the leg in the foreground looks awfully corroded.
I say Bay is correct in saying "Megatron is not in ROTF" this is because it's Galvatron instead, so technically, he is not lying?
Rob Keyes

@ nick,
I agree - I actually made that same point about Bay using wordplay and that Megatron could be called Galvatron in the sequel with his new body
I still don't think Optimus will kickass in this one. In the trailer, you can see him taking a pretty hard one to his face, looks like some bits and pieces came off.
It would be nice if the autobots can win this round, but it would be nicer if they'd lose.
Then, we can have a third sequel, this time with more powerful units like that aircraft carrier that Bay was thinking of, and other larger units like Ultra Magnus and Fortress Maximus arriving on Earth to level the playing field with the Constructicons and such.

If only Bay were equally misleading about no Dinobots (was it Bay that said no Dinobots? i don't remember). They were cheesy, but they would be fun on screen. Not 5, just 2 or 3 would be good...
Anyway, I do wonder what else Bay is hiding. Seriously, look at the size of the one constructicon from the trailer, Devestator has to be HUGE, and the new new atobots we've seen so far are pretty wimpy lookin'. Bring on Omega Supreme... if only

Omega Supreme would have to be an Orion nuclear-powered rocket if it's to be realistically large. If it's just another Soyuz or Ares booster, it would suck 'cause those rockets are tall and thin. An Orion rocket would kickass.

Jae.. One of the sloppy things about Bayformers is that if they can't come up with a vehicle mode that works for them, they make it a "Cybertronian" vehicle - ala Megatron and apparently Soundwave. I doubt they would use an Earth-made rocket
Another thought... if it is Galvatron instead of Megatron, will he have a different voice? I would prefer a different voice (not necessarily Nimoy tho). I always thought the new voice in the 86 movie gave Galvatron a different personality and completed the transformation from Megatron - it was an interesting concept at the time
