Not to mention the one pixel's worth of a potential autobot symbol right on the front.
Just looking at the shape of the semi, it's clearly not Prime, nor is either one of the Humvee's next to him Ratchet. They're NEST vehicles that have been described from previous shoots.

Interesting from the 2nd pict, you see the NEST soldiers (I assume) running past the Ice Cream truck. Perhaps they don't know it's a Transformer, yet? Robots in Disguise indeed!

Anyone know any details about this?

Clearly not Optimus that truck is black. Ok its not clear lol but still not a red and blue truck.
That is the NEST Semi we saw on the call sheet. It is also all black

So what if the truck with the trailer is "The Fallen?" How cool would that be?

I'm very curious as to how and why the R8 and Vetter are on top of a building like that.

Great pics by the way!

Black Truck? Grey/Silver trailer? Motormaster? J/K
I think it would be nice to see Prime carry a trailer just once. No disappearing crap, but would it hurt to just once have him haul something important in a trailer that strongly resembles the cartoon? Just one small homage to the trailer?

I don't think they care or they have someone in design who really sucks ass.

Trailers are impractical in a live-action shoot, particularly if they want Prime to be driving around at speed with the other Autobots.

For example, there would be no way in hell that Prime could have done that u-turn in the first film or arrive in Mission City with a trailer behind him - the truck would have rolled.

Prime not hauling a trailer has always made sense in the movieverse, but I don't want to live in a world where Bay doesn't see a potential explosion. Hell, he could have Prime pulling a trailer and have a con shred through rolling both it and Prime.
