Falcon XR6 Turbo transformed

Ford fans create ‘Falcatron’, a new character for Activision video game

Mention the Transformers franchise and thoughts typically turn to good guy Bumblebee, a Chevy Camaro that numbers among his mates other GM products on the Autobot side of law, order and universal suffrage.

But a bunch of Aussie Ford fans on Facebook have had enough. Put it down to our anti-establishment culture, but the 1000 Facebook users have turned to the Ford Falcon as a basis for a character in the Activision game, ‘Transformers; Fall of Cybertron’. The new character for the game will be known as ‘Falcatron’. It seems that our anti-social meme only takes us so far though. Rather than being a Decepticon as played by a Mustang in the first film of the franchise – and thereby satisfying the human need for light and dark, yin and yang, GM and Ford – Falcatron is an Autobot, one of the noble transformers.

Fans settled on the XR6 Turbo in blue for the new Autobot, despite being offered the options of G6E in green and playing the role of a Decepticon. Voting ran over three days and the final result was forwarded to High Moon Studios, the company developing the video game. High Moon, in turn produced the artwork for Falcatron, as pictured here.

my bad, didn't think it was a pure car topic being a game/movie and entertainment and all.
