Couple more pics from the Smithsonian. Shot of Megan Fox from behind, but nothing new.

If that little sucker actually transforms in the final product, that would so rock.

BAHAHAHAHAHA. Yes, please, give Sam a "toy" that actually turns into a real Transformer. We need more 1:1 pieces in this hobby.

I read on another board that they thought that this little guy was just for the actors to follow with their eyes so they could tell where the CGI action was going to be.

That little rc car is (as best I can tell) a Tamiya Ford F-350 High-lift with different wheels. I have wanted one for a long time.

That doesn't really make sense unless they're following something tiny since they'd be looking down the whole time.

MP:

My sources say they were going to use a trained cat but there was an accident involving static buildup and pyrotechnics.

Izzat you, Mudslinger?
Please?

Sigh.

But yeah, I'll be very pleased if that turns out to be a Transformer.
Edit: Ah, it looks like that may be the case, if this report is accurate:

QUOTE
After that they took a long time setting up and filming the RC car rolling straight towards the nose of the plane and stopping. They then placed a two foot tall cutout of a robot (what the RC car will transform into) in its place and took some shots to get references for the FX team.
-snip-
The last couple of scenes I saw before the broke for lunch was a scene with Megan Fox. It was far away from where we were allowed to stand and I couldn't hear any dialogue but the tiny robot cut out was standing off camera and she was looking down at it while talking.

I am pretty sure that little RC truck is this:

If this is the case it will be so much easier to convince my wife to let me get one. It's only about $350.

If that's honestly a tiny Transformer, then I will be a giddy, giddy individual.

Frenzy was cute (In a homicidal, blade wielding, razor shaped way), "Wheels" is going to be adorable.

Hmm... Anyone can get a size comparison pic between the boombox Frenzy transforms into and Wheels' real-life RC truck, to scale?

Just remember Frenzy is the bot they "cheated" with, as we never see a full transformation sequence from him.
