Pics of the redesigned Bumblebee and Optimus Prime for "Transformers 4"

"Transformers 4" will be hitting theaters next summer, June 27,2014.

These pics are from Michael Bay's site and it features the first look of the redesigned Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, along with a preview of two all new Autobots to the franchise

The new Optimus Prime


(The completely upgraded, custom-built Optimus Prime from Western Star (a subsidiary of Daimler Trucks North America).

A picture of Optimus around Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park


The newly redesigned Bumblebee



Transformers 4 Bumblebee Confirmed as Vintage 1967 Camaro SS
Quote:
The older model Camaro seen at the Transformers 4 set in the Navajo Tribal Park in Monument Valley has been officially confirmed as Bumblebee! Director Michael Bay's official website has announced that Bumblebee's new vehicle mode is a highly modified, vintage 1967 Camaro SS.
And the two newcomers (a 1,200-horsepower Bugatti Grand Sport Vitesse)



(And a special race-inspired C7 Corvette Stingray)


(and seen here with Bumblebee)

The fact that Optimus Prime changes to a Western Star for Transformers 4 has shaken me to my core! Do not like!

Western Star is a way better quality truck than Peterbilt will ever think of being, the part I don't like is that they used the areo model as the base instead of a 4900EX Lowmax.

exactly - I would say the reason being is so they could get that ridiculous scoop to look right where the 4900 being squared would not of given them the opportunity to do that.
