New Decepticon image from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen?

New Decepticon image from \<i\>Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen\<\/i\>?

The Bad and Ugly has posted an image of a key robot from Michael Bay's upcoming Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. You can see their image after the jump. (Spoilers ahead!)

New Decepticon image from \<i\>Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen\<\/i\>?

The image shows a new, invigorated Megatron toy from Hasbro based on the Decepticon leader's reported re-appearance in the Transformers sequel film. Revenge of the Fallen co-writer Roberto Orci confirmed that the bad robot will reappear in a post over the weekend at TFW 2005. In response to a fan question, Orci simply replied: "Megatron returns!"

This would appear to contradict Bay's own statement, to Empire magazine, as reported by JoBlo.com: "He's not in this movie. That's not misinformation. The tank design you may have seen is just Hasbro coming up with a new toy."

As for the image, Bad and Ugly reports, "This design seems to fit with the rumored new Megatron Tank we got a look at last September and gives more weight to the leaked tank toy we speculated was Megatron." Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen opens June 24.

It would appear that either Bay still thinks that it's cute to misinform the fans or Megatron will assume the name Galvatron in a nice nod to the original 1986 Transformers animated movie.

He does look kinda "Galvatron-ic"
