Autobots

The Autobots are the protagonists in the Transformers Universe, a collection of various toys, graphic novels, paperback books, cartoons and movies first introduced in 1984. In all Transformer continuities, the Autobots are the "good guys," "Heroic Autobots" fighting the "Evil Decepticons", who are the antagonists of the various series.

Optimus Prime Optimus Prime will be present as Autobot leader. Prime now transforms into a conventional Peterbilt cab (akin to his Laser Rod incarnation), rather than cab over design of his original Generation 1 body. In a move that has proven rather controversial among some fans, Prime's vehicle mode is now decorated with red flames (a la Rodimus Prime, his successor) painted onto a blue body, apparently as a means of incorporating both his classic colors while retaining a realistic color layout to the truck mode. Early photos show that Optimus will be able to transform his right arm into a megacannon.

Bumblebee Bumblebee will be appearing in the live-action Transformers movie in 2007, returning to his role as the friend of the Autobots' human ally - in this case, Sam Witwicky. When the Decepticons target Sam for the map he possess that shows the location of the life-giving Allspark, Bumblebee is assigned to guard Sam and gets closer to him by posing as a used car which Sam then buys. Recent trailer footage shows him being attacked and subdued by a group of humans, who seem to be operatives of Sector 7.

Jazz Jazz is described as having a love of style, with a rock-'n-roll type of personality—not unlike his G1 persona. Also adding to his G1 image is him retaining his visor as well as his front-chassis chest. According to Jalopnik, Jazz's alternate mode will be a silver/gray customized hardtop Pontiac Solstice, similar to the weekend racer concept car. This has been confirmed by several leaked photos. Jazz's weapons include a sword and shield, as well as a shoulder-mounted Gatling machine gun.

Introduced in 1984, the Transformers brand took the world by storm with its compelling saga of the Autobots versus the Decepticons. The innovative "Robots in Disguise" resulted in a tremendously successful toy line from Hasbro and Takara, comic book series, television program and an animated feature film. More than 20 years later, a new generation has discovered the excitement of the Transformers brand and its legendary characters, including the two leaders of the opposing sides: Optimus Prime and Megatron. Today, the franchise features a popular toy line, an animated series on the Cartoon Network and a chart-topping comic book series from IDW Publishing.
