No Kup For You! Or Stunticons! - Rumors of Characters Squashed

[MISP Steve]

As previously reported, there's been some talk going around that Kup would be in the Transformers 3 movie based on images that have surfaced from The Scorecard Review of a cardboard cutout bot head on a pole. Some apparently have assumed that it is Kup, but thanks to Nelson over at Bay's site Shoot For The Edit, that rumor has been squashed. He has posted a notice letting people know the joke's aside with a short statement: "Wrong, no Kup." In another fell swoop, Nelson has also denied that the Nascar trio are the Stunticons or Omnicons and not giving us alternatives. "[A]ll I'll tell you is that they're not Stunticons or Omnibots," he writes. Read the Full News Story Here

Well, there goes my guess since I thought it was Kup since he has that old timer look going on. Maybe Perceptor then?

[BaCon]

That head looks like it has hair. :ghey

[Optics]

My guesses:

Alpha Trion ...

Ultra Magnus ...

Grimlock ....

Apex Bomber (Yet another old TF that Prime will combine with)

Albert Einstein (His real death was a cover up and that he turned himself into a TF)

[Guest Bumblemus]

I think it's alpha trion

I'm still gonna keep my vote for Perceptor. That one lens on his glasses to me just seems to lend toward that character.

Dunno who it is, but it looks like a steaming pile of crap. The bayverse is starting to leave a bad taste for me. And we still have TF : Prime to look forward to..... :emo

[BaCon]

I think its Stu Pid.

You know, this could just be a mockup with only limited relevance to the character. So the actors know just how to react to the lines the bot is saying. Say Jazz, without hearing the guy speak, he looked evil as sin, but with an image like that of say a mock-up bot with sunglasses smiling the actors will get the "cool guy" speaking reaction. This seems like the "DONT REACT LIKE HE IS JUST AN AVERAGE JOE BUT A FREAKIN GENIUS" sorta thing.

Well, no idea about the cardboard head but the stockcars are obviously Nascons.
