Do you spend your evenings sleeping under Bumblebee bedsheets? Have you ever gone into a drive-thru wearing an Optimus Prime mask? Well, it might finally be time for some new toys.
"Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" storms into theaters June 24, bringing with it a slew of brand-new robots in disguise. Recently, we caught up with the human stars of the movie — and got the scoop on their favorite freewheeling co-stars.
Megan Fox on Devastator - "Devastator is a really cool robot because he's a Constructicon, and we didn't have a Constructicon in the last one," explained the actress, who plays sexy Mikaela Barnes in the film series. "He's just massive. And the damage he does, it's mind-blowing to watch it. Some of the coolest action sequences and set pieces I've ever seen in a movie is with Devastator."
Shia LaBeouf on Scalpel - "There's an interrogation scene, it's just me on a table surrounded by five robots — one of whom is inside of my mind," LaBeouf said of his favorite scene in the film, which revolves around a small, spider-like Decepticon who can transform into a microscope and goes by the nickname "The Doctor." "[Another robot] is looking at my thoughts on a board. And I'm being held down by another one who is holding my arms, and another robot's holding my legs as I am talking to a doctor robot."
Ramon Rodriguez on Ravage - "Ravage is a good one that people are going to love to see what he can do — in the cartoon, he used to come out of Soundwave," remembered self-professed "Transformers" geek Rodriguez, who joins the series in the sequel as Sam's friend Leo. "Soundwave was this guy who had a tape cassette, and he would let out a bird that would fly like a spy, and he would also let out this tiger. So [Michael Bay] implemented the tiger in the movie, and the tiger can do a bunch of different things ... people are going to be really excited to see that kind of stuff, that he's actually bringing some of the old original ones back."
Tyrese on Sideswipe - "I love the new Corvette," grinned the car-loving actor who plays USAF Sergeant Epps, referring to an Autobot fighter who employs swords in battle. "That silver Corvette in the movie is crazy! It's a Stingray; I love the car, and I love the way he looks when he transforms. I [loved] Bumblebee on the first one because I love the car and I just love the character of Bumble — but I think my new favorite is this Stingray Corvette, man. I got to have that car in my collection when it comes out!"
