Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Cheat Sheet

In an attempt to keep up with the information about Transformers 2, it seems a cheat sheet is needed. I have tagged items as "rumor" if information has not been verified for various reasons such as the name, the appearance, the alt mode, etc. If I miss anything be sure to note it in the comments or email me as I intend to update with any new information and spoilers about the film. The below is ultimately speculation until someone officially with the film confirms the information but part of the fun of tracking a movie like this is the speculation.

Story: When the story begins, the Autobots and the military have been waging a secret war against the Decepticons. As more of the giant robots continue to resurface, though, it becomes apparent the Transformers have been part of Earth's history for longer than they'd led mankind to believe. One group of bureaucrats even wonders if the Decepticons are only appearing because of the Autobot presence. Desperate not to leave Earth undefended, Optimus Prime turns to Sam and asks him to become a human advocate, someone who will convince mankind that the Autobots should be allowed to stay. Sam refuses to believe he can help, though, wanting to go to college and live a normal life - as normal as possible with the strange thoughts and visions that have haunted him since being exposed to the All Spark's primal energies two years earlier. Alas, Sam's refusal will have harsh consequences for himself, the Autobots and possibly the entire world. The Decepticons fallen leader, Megatron has been resurrected and brings with him an ancient evil from the Transformers own history.

Notes:
*Arcee's alt mode biggest source of confusion right now. For Transformers 1 her alt mode was a 2006 Buell Firebolt XB1LR. However, script re-writes along with her tiny size (about 9 feet tall) resulted her in being moved to the second movie. Size may no longer be an issue with Frenzy being a proof of concept. Or her size could be augmented with the merging of multiple vehicles. Current contenders for her alt mode include 3 Can-Am Spyders or 2 Trikes seen at the Bethlehem set. However, they could also be NEST vehicles. One report said a purple, pink, blue custom made motorcycle has been seen but that remains unconfirmed.
6/10 - Removed Go-Kart and Porsche as alt modes for Transformers. Checking the call sheet and its formatting of the scene descriptions, both vehicles are probably camera vehicles used for coverage.
6/10 Removed the listing of Jazz (white 2008 Pontiac Solstice) as a potential Transformer in the movie. Despite rumors, there is clearly a move to adding new characters to the movie, not revisting dead ones. Except maybe one based on the movie's title. Besides, Bay himself said "Jazz is dead."
6/25 Removed the Brooklyn Bridge and Bannerman Island locations as the shooting hiatus is apparently starting on June 26th nor did I ever recieve information that supported the locations. When the hiatus will end is unknown.
6/29 Removed Jon Voight (John Keller) from cast list as he said he would not be in the sequel.
8/26 Changed Stinger alt mode to Corvette Centennial since released pictures of that concept car more closly match pictures of the car seen on Transformers 2 sets.
9/8 Added "Faction Unknown" section to Transformers section. Used for either characters (The Fallen) or Chevy concept cars (ex: Volt) that seem to have no verified alliegance to either Decepticons or Autobots.
9/8 Moved the Ice Cream Truck categorization to Faction Unknown since the Ice Cream Truck's alt mode, character name and alliegance remains unverified. Still possible early movie alt mode of the "The Twins" and therefore an Autobot but more info needed.
9/23 Added Megatron, Devastator, and Ravage to villian list. Replaced Stinger with Sideswipe name. Changes based on recent rumors from Hasbro's toyline.
9/28 Replace 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group (Tucson, AZ) with The Boneyard. Both mean the same thing. Removed Andrews Air Force Base as a location since never verified.
10/9 Updated the identity of the the Chevy Beat to Skids
12/16 Added Springer as possible Autobot cast member.
12/20 Based on leaked toy info, gave Volt the name of Jolt.
12/29 Updated story, moved Jetfire to Autobot section.
1/5 Removed Megatron from Decepticon cast as info from Hasbro toys and Michael Bay indicate he doesn't return for the sequel.
1/11 Skids' alt mode name change from Beat to Spark. Beat was the concept name, Spark is the production name.
1/30 Re-added Megatron to Decepticon cast since what appears to be his image is popping up on the toys and other promotional items.
2/1 Superbowl commercial proves RH400 Transformer has role in movie but not if is a component of Devastator.
2/2 Decided to remove Wheeljack (Saab Aero-X) mostly because the car has yet to be reported to have been seen on set nor is it a GM vehicle. Considering how often the other Autobot vehicles have been spotted, the Saab would have been eye balled at least once by now.
2/7 Updated to indicate the Fallen as a seperate character with Cybertronian jet and that Wheelie has been confirmed as character with RC alt mode.
2/9 Based on toy pictures moved The Fallen to Decepticon case due faction symbol on waist. Move Ice Cream Truck to Decepticons as do see a very vague and unproven Decepticon symbol under left back window.
2/11 Names of the Twins and Sideswipe has been verified. Devastator images came out but unproven if fan art or not.
2/15 At Toy Fair 2009, Hasbro releases name and look of Devastator and the Constructicons. Previous information accurate except red Komatsu HD465-7 Articulated Dump Truck was not a part of the combiner. Also added Breakaway as possible Autobot.
2/17 From toy packaging, the Audi R8 verified as having the name of Sideways.
2/21 Removed rumor note from Megatron with verification from Orci and Leader class toy.
2/25 Changed Lennox from Captain to Major based on mention in Transformers Prequel comic, Alliance #3.
3/5 Added Hugo Weaving as voice of Megatron.
3/10 Potential name for one of the Arcees is Chromia, specifics on the Arcee bikes still unknown.
3/15 Added Jon Turturro as voice of Jetfire (unverified) and new Voyager transport plane that could explain how the Autobots get from the states to Egypt to fight the Decepticons and The Fallen.
3/20 Leader class toy confirms that Jetfire has a combined mode with Optimus Prime. Jetfire is also previousily a Decepticon that becomes an Autobot. Whether or not it is used in the movie is not known.
3/20 Topps ROTF Trading Cards confirm the entire voice cast from the first film returns for the sequel to reprise their various roles.
3/26 Chromia as blue motorcycle verified via toy packaging pictures. Ice Cream truck as potential alt mode of Skids and Mudflap suggested by Alliance #4 comic.
4/1 Added Scalpel to potentially part of the Decepticon cast in the movie.
4/1 Articles verify that Scalpel, also called The Doctor, is a character in the movie. Also articles indicate a total of 8 Constructicons in the movie, seven of which form Devastator which conflicts with reports from 2009 Toy Fair.
4/13 Added runtime for movie as provided by Bay.
4/27 Roberto Orci verified that Frank Welker will voice Soundwave.
4/29 Added Grindor to Decepticon list based on appearance in ShoWest Montage and FAB toy.
5/5 Finally able to remove "possible" from description of Ice Cream truck, now confirmed to be the Twins. Also changed Arcee's color from pink to red.
5/5 Added a potential official story synopsis.
5/13 Added Glenn Morshower to supporting cast list.
5/15 Added John Di Maggio (Sideways) and James Arnold Taylor (The Fallen) to voice cast list due to their playing the roles in the video game. Movie involvement is not confirmed.
5/16 Based on official novel, Arcee bikes do have a single robot combiner mode. Whether used in movie however is not confirmed. The name of the combiner is unconfirmed. Basically Arcee remains the mystery she has been since the character was known to be in the movie back in June 08.
5/19 Based on information in the novelizations of the movie, added the Matrix as an artifact.
5/19 Added Tony Todd to voice cast list, who he is playing is unknown.
5/21 LA Times interview with Bay reveals has joined the voice cast, which character is unknown.
5/22 Article confirms seven constructicons merge Devastator. Alt mode of Overload remains unknown.
6/8 Added Insecticons, Ejector, microwave-bot to list. Added number of Transformers at 42 as provide by Michael Bay. Current known named count: 35 If include combined mode (Devastator, Arcee, Jetfire/Prime, Twins ice cream truck): 39
6/12 Based on new information from premiers and sneak peaks, Barricade not in movie, no Arcee combiner (one personality among three bodies), Bonecrusher apparently returns, Megatron is a triple changer (jet and tank modes) and so is Mixmaster (weapons platform).
6/15 Added Susan Blu and Jason Griffith to voice cast list, removed Stratosphere and Springer from Autobot TF list.
6/16 Variety review confirms Tony Todd voices the Fallen.
6/21 Added data to the Transformers voice cast section. Arcee voiced by Grey DeLisle (not Susan Blu), Jetfire is Mark Ryan (not John Turturro), Mudflap is Reno Wilson, Skids and Wheelie verified for Tom Kenny, Sideswipe is Andre Sogliuzzo (not Jason Griffith), The Doctor voiced by John DiCrosta, a Prime is Kevin Michael Richardon and Demolisher has a line but actor unknown.
6/23 Based on movie, Constructicons and what forms Devastator are not the same thing but share similar alt modes. High Tower (yellow Kobelco CK2500 Truss Crane) and Scavenger (red O&K/Terex RH400 Hydrolic Mining Excavator) do not appear seperately in movie. It seems the naming conventions for the Constructions (which are not named in the movie) are like Arcee, used mostly to help name the toys.
6/26 Changed film budget to $194 million, direct info from Bay.
9/27 Corrected the voice cast based on DVD credits list, removed John DiMaggio (Sideways) and Mike Patton (Mixmaster) as they were not listed so assuming they did not voice any characters in the movie.
