From the vehi­cle based on the GM Cen­ten­nial, this is the first full pic­ture of ‘Side­swipe’ via TF08:

Updated, higher qual­ity toy shots of the Biplane and Gun boat, named Ran­sack and Depthcharge respec­tively. These pic­tures come thanks to The-Arker:

Vari­ety have con­firmed rumors that the first Revenge of the Fallen trailer will make its appear­ance dur­ing the Super­bowl on Feb­ru­ary 1st:

Nearly every stu­dio will push pics dur­ing the big game, air­ing on NBC Feb. 1, with the movie lineup nat­u­rally made up of sum­mer tent­poles whose stu­dios hope to appeal to the nearly 100 U.S. mil­lion view­ers that tune in to the broadcast.

Con­firmed for this year’s ros­ter are high-profile titles like Paramount’s “Trans­form­ers: Revenge of the Fallen,” “Star Trek” and “G.I. Joe”; Sony’s “Angels and Demons”; Dream­Works Animation’s “Mon­sters vs. Aliens”; and Universal’s “Land of the Lost” and its fourth install­ment in “The Fast and the Furi­ous” fran­chise. Dis­ney is also plan­ning to use the game to raise the pro­file for Pixar’s next toon, “Up.”

The movie blurbs will in many cases show off footage from the pics for the first time. Par has yet to unveil a sin­gle frame of the “Trans­form­ers” sequel and will use the Super Bowl to make the big reveal.

Bow­ing the fresh footage will gen­er­ate heat for the pics con­sid­er­ing the broad­cast attracted 97 mil­lion view­ers last year and con­sis­tently ranks as one of the few annual tele­vised events in which auds pay atten­tion to the com­mer­cials and talk about them afterward.

This poster orig­i­nally showed up on eBay and has since been con­firmed as the offi­cial teaser poster for Trans­form­ers 2, released by Dream­works pic­tures for Yahoo Movies to use.

Michael Bay has posted a com­ment about the poster on his forums under the title ‘Revenge is Coming’:

Okay it’s time to turn up the heat on Trans­form­ers — Revenge of the Fallen. We’ve waited low in the weeds let­ting all the sum­mer movies get their stuff out. We’ve seen the great year end movies, and watched the upcom­ing clips of the upcom­ing sum­mer fare. We’ve seen cer­tain movies com­ing out even try to dupli­cate Trans­former size robots in their ads. Please, come on.

Well, I promise you we will rock your world with Trans­form­ers 2. The fans wanted ROBOTS KICKING ASS — well we got it. Today we are releas­ing the teaser poster and soon the onslaught will con­tinue with a steady drum beat until June 26th.

I’ll keep you informed.

Enhanced Poster

This comes via Bilal and TLAMB and shows the finer details of the poster:

The­o­ries

The pre­dom­i­nant the­ory is that this is Jet­fire, judg­ing by the face’s com­par­isons with the Jet­fire toy — note red eyes and the same ridged sides. Another the­ory, that I believe is equally valid, is that this is actu­ally The Fallen, the face also very closely matches the shape of the Decep­ti­con logo:

Offi­cial Site Updated

The offi­cial site has updated to include the poster image, in higher detail than avail­able else­where, I’ve grabbed this and enhanced it:

Just had a heads up from Jalop­nik that the new Chevy Beat, fea­tured in Trans­form­ers: Revenge of the Fallen, will be mak­ing its way to the Detroit auto show after a sneak pre­view on the Today Show with Matt Lauer. Watch Video clip.

Jalop­nik also spec­u­late that the car on view will be a pro­duc­tion model rather than a con­cept as pre­vi­ously seen in New York.

This is another video from Philly­Film­Girl, posted a short while back but nev­er­the­less unseen as it stands with only 700 views. This is once again from the Prince­ton movie shoot and shows the Sat­urn being dri­ven by Sam crash­ing slowly into a pole:

The-Arker have returned with new card shots of two more Revenge of the Fallen toys — their alt modes being a biplane and a gun boat respec­tively, despite being a lit­tle bit blurry. Once again these are unlikely to appear in the movie.

The-Arker have also posted new shots of the Jolt FAB toy’s packaging:

Would you be inter­ested in more Trans­form­ers toy news? At the moment I am restrict­ing the news to ROTF related devel­op­ments with an aim to stay on the topic of the movie. What do you guys think?

Philly­Film­Girl has posted a new videos show­ing shots of Shia LaBoeuf, Megan Fox and Ramon Rodriguez run­ning away from some­thing, then fol­lowed by a calm but pac­ing Isabel Lucas as ‘Alice’, a pos­si­ble ‘shell’ for the Rav­age transformer.
