Toys
- "BayBot," a joking representation of Bay in toy form, was "advertised" in an easter egg on the Transformers DVD. The toy is an Alternators Ravage with a humanoid head and Autobot insignia. And puppies. It's quite disturbing, actually.
Trivia
- During a television interview on June 13th, 2007 in Australia on the Ten Network's news hour, Bay stated that Hugo Weaving had recorded his lines as Megatron in Australia while Bay directed him from the U.S. using iChat, and thus, he had never actually met the actor.
- Susan Bay, a relative of Michael Bay, is married to famed Star Trek actor (and the original voice of Generation 1 Galvatron) Leonard Nimoy, and apparently it was due to their substantial contributions to the Griffith Observatory that Michael was allowed to film Transformers at that location.[3]
- Michael Bay is the human Megatron flicks aside and calls disgusting.....so many ways this is funny.
