Orig­i­nal Post

The Super­bowl Trans­form­ers 2 teaser trailer, a lit­tle early:

Down­load the Super­bowl Trans­form­ers 2 Teaser Trailer

Sum­mary of the trailer

- Rav­age is the beast like crea­ture, match­ing leaked con­cept designs

–A very large trans­former emerg­ing through a bridge as Opti­mus Prime jumps on his head, match­ing the leaked Terex RH400 toy’s head and arms, rolling along on one giant wheel (EDIT: Two wheels, thanks Jef­frey). Looks like ONE of the con­struc­ti­cons that makes up the even big­ger Dev­as­ta­tor. He is also the char­ac­ter destroy­ing the heli­copters at Beth­le­hem Steel works.

View the toy images, View Beth­le­hem Film­ing Report and Images. The explod­ing bridge scenes were filmed in Long Beach — View video footage (and more footage, includ­ing an aer­ial angle).

- Opti­mus Prime gets smacked in the face by an unknown entity

- The Audi R8 robot comes crash­ing through a win­dow before turn­ing into its vehi­cle alt mode and dri­ving away

- As the Audi R8 dri­ves away you can see more Trans­form­ers com­ing into the screen in the top right, there is a hint of pink on the first one and it seems to be almost skat­ing, I am guess­ing this is Arcee, a third char­ac­ter is also seen briefly behind her. Screen­shots fur­ther down. The R8 has pre­vi­ously been seen with Arcee fol­low­ing in the Wal­mart footage, this is prob­a­bly an exten­sion of that scene.

- Shia gets con­fronted by what appears to be Starscream and then is held down by a large claw — the trailer implies this is also Starscream but the claw is very sim­i­lar to the one on the redesigned Mega­tron (Seen here). The claw also bears some strange mark­ings, sim­i­lar to those on the Voy­ager class toy pack­ages.

Opti­mus Prime

Dev­as­ta­tor?

More likely to be just one of the con­struc­ti­cons that make up the even big­ger Devastator.

Shia Con­fronted by Starscream

Looks like this was also filmed in Beth­le­hem, matches this scenery.

Shia pinned down by a large claw, pos­si­bly Megatron’s

Note the sym­bols in the background:

It’s almost here. The teaser trailer shall be air­ing on Feb­ru­ary 1st, specif­i­cally in the third quar­ter, a few min­utes in. The full length trailer will also appear on Feb­ru­ary 13th, appear­ing on the inter­net one week later, although I am sure some leaked ver­sions will make their way around before then.

In the words of Michael Bay:

So,

The Super Bowl spot is com­ing Sun­day in the third Quar­ter (few min­utes into the quar­ter slot). The spot will be online a few min­utes after that — The full length teaser trailer will only be on Fri­day the Thir­teenth. It will not hit the inter­net until a week later. The Teaser really only teases stuff — I’m hold­ing so much stuff back from the final trail­ers because I per­son­ally hate going to movies where you have seen it all.

Tell me what you think,

Michael
