The alter­nate trailer cut air­ing before Ter­mi­na­tor Sal­va­tion and Night at the Museum 2 has appeared on YouTube. Included are an extended Bum­ble­bee cry­ing scene, Skids and Mud­flaps ‘not doing much read­ing’, more shots of the motor­cy­cles and Opti­mus Prime trans­form­ing in the aircraft.

Supreme Devastator in packging with bio May 28th, 2009

ACToys have posted new shots of the Supreme class Dev­as­ta­tor in its box, com­plete with bio. This is the $100 ver­sion that com­bines six dif­fer­ent vehi­cles into one robot, the vehi­cles do not have their own robot modes. This toy does not fea­ture the sev­enth con­struc­ti­con, Overload.

Dev­as­ta­tor Bio

The ulti­mate Decep­ti­con weapon has arrive on Earth and noth­ing will ever the same. Con­struc­ti­con Dev­as­ta­tor is the biggest robot ever — tow­er­ing above Auto­bots and Decep­ti­cons alike. As his Vor­tex Grinder snaps open and glows with power, all before him quake in fear, know­ing their destruc­tion is inevitable!

Jetfire & Power-up Optimus Prime, Long Haul video reviews May 28th, 2009

From the most excel­lent Peaugh again, more video reviews of the new Trans­form­ers 2 toys — this time with the much antic­i­pated Jet­fire and Opti­mus Prime com­bined form. All very cool toys!

Skids and Mudflap head CG renders May 28th, 2009

ACToys have posted two CG ren­ders of the twins, Skids and Mud­flap. Not sure where these came from, but they give us a grue­some look at the goofy toothed characters:

Scrapper constructicon concept image May 28th, 2009

TFG2 have found a con­cept art ver­sion of the con­struc­ti­con, Scrap­per, brought to the Eng­lish speak­ing audi­ence via S250 at TFW2005. Scrap­per is the char­ac­ter that we see chas­ing after Sam and Mikaela as they jump from rooftop to rooftop.

Transfomers 2 IMAX poster, June 10th for IMAX pre-orders May 28th, 2009

Bum­ble­bee and the pyra­mids fea­ture in a new IMAX poster for Revenge of the Fallen. It is sim­i­lar to pre­vi­ous posters but puts Bum­ble­bee in a dif­fer­ent pose with even greater detail.

Addi­tion­ally, pre-order tick­ets for Trans­form­ers 2 at IMAX will be avail­able from June 10th! Be sure to snap them up quickly to grab the best IMAX seats — noth­ing worse than a cramped neck from watch­ing the movie in the bot­tom cor­ner of the theater!

New Trailer cut with Museum 2 and Terminator 4 May 28th, 2009

As pre­vi­ously rumored, a slightly dif­fer­ent cut of the lat­est Trans­form­ers 2 trailer is air­ing with Night at the Museum 2 and Ter­mi­na­tor Sal­va­tion. A cou­ple of descrip­tions have come through about this alter­nate cut:

The trailer con­tains: a longer cut of BB in the garage (shorter than show­est though), side­swipe doing his thing, a new shot of Arcee, both of the twins talk­ing (some­thing about not being able to read), extended shot in the school library, and more that I can’t remem­ber. Just a heads up for you to be look­ing around for it!

At my local the­ater, I had the oppor­tu­nity to pre­screeen a copy of Night at the Museum 2 and the new cut trailer was on there. Some of the footage was old, but more than half was new. Here’s what I remem­ber see­ing that was of note:

–Bum­ble­bee cry­ing (Show­est footage)
–Twins actu­ally speak­ing (Sam shows them a tat­too on his arm and they say they can’t read. If you lis­ten VERY closely, one of them sounds like Sponge­bob. XD )
–Gal­loway and Epps hav­ing a con­ver­sa­tion that goes like this
“It looks like a nor­mal truck“
*Opti­mus trans­forms* (this is a bet­ter, fuller ver­sion than the T.V. spot)
Epps: “Freaky, right?“
–Bet­ter images of Arcee, but I didn’t see her fully combined.

Don’t remem­ber if there was any­thing else note­wor­thy, but I’ll make a sec­ond look just in case. Please remem­ber that trail­ers are only selec­tive to cer­tain the­aters and it may or may not be on the Night At the Musuem 2 that you watch.
