Default Bumblebee 2

i came across these pix of bumblebee on the set of the new transformers movie. suppossedly it is the "SS" i can't say how true that is, but if you look closely, the hood seems different from the bumblebee in part one. it seems to have a much more drastic rise in it about 18inches from the nose. it may be a scoop, kind hard to tell

I think it's kinda funny that there are going to be two back to back movies featuring a car that has yet to be out yet.
