It seems as if the news on Transformers 2 just keeps on coming in.  First the trailer that premiered during the Super Bowl.  Now comes word that the original Bumblebee who is a Camaro from Transformers the movie gets a new facelift with the upcoming Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen.  The Autobot’s design will be based on the new Camaro car design rolled out by GM.  We have the exclusive photo from the Chicago Auto Show via MTV below.

I’ll be perfectly honest with you, at first glance, I don’t notice a hell of a lot of difference between the “new” Bumblebee and the older one. He is still yellow, still seems to have similar lines, and when he is in robot form, looks nearly identical to what I remember from the first film, as far as I can tell. I am glad that it isn’t a drastic makeover, as that would make little sense to me. I thought he had a cool, fresh design in the first film, so fortunately, this doesn’t appear to be too much of a departure from that. I can (semi) understand why Michael Bay and GM would do this (money!), but at the same time, I can’t think it would have any bearing on the film itself. Please educate me and fill me in on what you see differently in the design. Appreciated!

There was first news of the Autobots Twins pic that debuted in the last few weeks.  Then we found out that the Dinobots were not to be a part of Transformers 2.  Michael Bay has given us an update and spoken on what Transformers 2 has in store.  And now, this….there is quite a bit of steam being gathered for this picture.  Tentpole!!  Below, we have posted two concept pics of “The Fallen” and “Devastator” as well.  Thanks to Latino Review for those. Let us know what has your juices flowing about the movie!
