Spoiler warning for anyone who don't want to know anything.

...

Still here?

It seems that rumors of a super-sized robot appearing in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen were true. At least, according to the fan site TFW2005, which has confirmed the appearance of the robot Devastator in the next installment hitting theaters next summer. Here's the information that they passed along.

- Seven construction vehicles merge to form Devastator
- Devastator has lots of upper body strength, like a gorilla
- Not just green, some of the vehicles are red and yellow
- The previously Long Haul concept art by Josh Nizzi is legit

The second film stars Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, John Turturro, Isabel Lucas, Rainn Wilson and Jennifer Alden. Director Michael Bay is behind the cameras, based on a screenplay by Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci and Ehren Kruger.

Not much is known about the plot concept itself other than the enemy being a comic-based robot dubbed "The Fallen". There have been reports that as many as 20 robots will appear in this next installment with two confirmed additions of Arcee and Soundwave. Sam (Shia LaBeouf) is in college during the events of the sequel.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen will hit standard and IMAX theaters June 26, 2009.

Starscream OWNS 2009! ....SON!

I completely agree gualeyboy. I love the original series, but a number of the episodes were pretty bad. I think a lot of the crazy fans who hated the movie and wanted nothing but "G1" haven't seen the episodes recently and are blinded by nostalgia.

It's hard to say about this rumor...kind of surprised to see it posted on here since it's ONLY a rumor. But I've seen some art work of one of the supposed Constructicons (HUGE dumptruck) and if that's really in the movie, then it's one of the most bad ass Decepticon designs so far! Might even please that Sony guy who likes to swallow stuff...

That will be cool, to see Devastator. I always liked the Constructicons. Maybe in the future we`ll see Metroplex.

/I am so hyped to hear this. I cant wait to see it done. One question I have been meaning to as you guys my fellow Maniacs. Didnt they named the Tank Devastator in the first one? I was like wait how they going to name two robots with same name?? You guys think it was a mistake and maybe they werent thinking about doing the big robots for part 2?

P.S.......9/11 never forget.

Haha, Flint... that was awesome.

AMiSHPiRATE • Sep 11, 2008, 06:25am •

And the Dinobots were constructed to combat Devestator. Therefore, as I so aptly remind you, get Dinobots in the picture!

wolfmanX • Sep 11, 2008, 06:58am •

100% agree with you AMiSHPiRATE. BRING ON THE DINOBOTS!!!!!!!!!
