Superion in Transformers ROTF Movie

Superion in Transformers ROTF Movie

So you have seen Devastator, but how about the massive multiple transformer known as Superion?

Superion in Generation 1 is known to be the first combiner and special team for the Autobot forces. He is an Autobot formed by the combination of 5 Autobot jets. Air raid, fireflight, silverbolt (the leader), skydive and slingshot form this massive robot. He is known to be the only defense against Devastator aside from Unicron and Primus (Planet cybertron Gen 1). If we know of Devastator to be in the movie the only logical way I see him to be defeated is to introduce Superion and by the looks of this toy Bay just might deliver. If you look close at the back picture it explains how each and every Autobot's personality makes up all aspects of Superions personality.




Just for you who haven't seen Devastator yet here he is (just the toy sorry)

Hey this is wrong. These are just repains of Transformers Energon toys. This character is obviously not in the movie. Sorry.

Did you see the quality compared to Devastator? Very lack luster.

The design on that version of Superion doesn't match the style of the other Transformers confirmed to be in the movie. When the first movie came out, they released toys for Smokescreen, Thundercracker and many other characters from the cartoons, but that didn't make it in the movie. The ones from the movie actually said it on the packaging.

I would love to see Superion fighting Devastator. Shit, I don't know anybody here who wouldn't cream the theater seat watching that. But I don't think this toy is from the movie. I can only hope I'm wrong...

just because there is a toy of it that doesn't mean that it'll be in the film.

He's not in the movie. These are just toys. This should not be front page news.

I've heard of only one flying autobot in the movie. If there are several, Bay is doing an excellent job with keeping it quiet.

If you google Bruticus, there's also a ROTF pic for it. That doesn't mean he's in the movie.

That Superion is part of the normal Transformers remake line, not from the movie line... But it would be sweet to see some Autobot gestalt action.

Bruticus was created by Starscream to help him take out Megatron, so if they amp up the Starscream vs Megatron in RotF, then maybe we could see a combiner three way! :D

joob234, I don't know how old you are, but you have to know that there wouldn't be a Gundam or a Neon Genesis without a Robotech. Most of the ideas came from there...

Superion will probably not be in Revenge it's just for the Toy Line
joob234
joob234 - 3/19/2009, 7:32 PM
uhhh im get ur facts straight jetsaholic, gundam came out in the late 70's and revolutionized the idea of giant robots while robotech came out 1985. plus i never mentioned neon genesis but i did in other articles, and thats a whole different story that was in the 90's but its considered on of the greatest animated features of all time but like i said: different story!

just get ur facts straight b4 saying something

Thats just a rerelease of Energon Superion. I don't think he is in the movie.

icecreamdropper - 3/19/2009, 9:33 PM
He's guna be effing huge and he better be in re whole movie not some villain that comes in when there half and hour left...... Venom

He's not an actual character in the movie. This toy was meant to come out this year in a different line (classics/universe/25th anniversary)but with the movie coming out this summer they went with it instead. Its isnt even a ney toy its a bloody repaint from a figure 5 years ago. Dont be fooled he is NOT in the movie. Plus if he was he wouldnt look that boxy - notice Devestators funk half robot half predator look.

Ok this is my artical and I would like it if people would stop mentioning Gundam

Your article sucks bud. You took a picture of a transformer toy and cropped the movie title on the packaging which can be done with any photography program out there. Then you go and say its gonna be in the new movie. YOU NEED A GIRLFRIEND!!! You obviously have WAY too much time on your hands. Leave the movie research to the ones who own the website. You have no sources to confirm shit. I would bet that this rumor will be squashed within a day or two. But I guess you COULD dream....

Vinny out!
vinny112
vinny112 - 3/20/2009, 2:23 AM
Oh, an BTW, that devestator toy isn't even the same as the one portraide in the actual movie.


THESE ARE FRIGGIN TOYS PEOPLE!!!

joob234, my bad. I did get the dates backwards. Still, I've always loved Robotech and I'd like for the movie to happen. Gundam should also be made into a movie, though.
joob234
joob234 - 3/20/2009, 2:24 PM
also not offending u or anything about robotech, but it was an american ripoff of macross, a japanese anime. not saying robotechs bad tho
