    Wait what...the post mentions Dinobots? Don't tell me that one of the Dinobots is actually a beat up version of G1 Optimus' altmode? That would make no sense.

    So weird!

    Oh look, they totally fucked up and painted the wrong truck to be Optimus. Looks like they lost the one they were supposed to paint.

    Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but if not: the post is a Twitter tweet just with a Dinobot hashtag thrown into it. It doesn't mean or imply anything.

    I eagerly anticipate that truck just being a normal truck and not somebody.

    That's cute.

    If this is the case, this just further cements why I love the Transformers movie lead-up and speculation times: Bay's systematic trolling of Transformers fans is amazing and I never want it to end.

    Bay will pass it off/imply it/leave it to us to imply it as a reference to G1.

    But we know.

    That truck looks like it might have an Autobot symbol on the grill. But the quality isn't good enough to tell.

    If I had to take a wild guess it would be Ultra Magnus.

    I don't know if that is Bumblebee or not. It looks more like Mirage to me. But we won't know for sure until we get a shot of it uncovered.

    I really hope that isn't Grimlock. Or any of the Dinobots. If the Dinobots are going to have actual vehicle alt modes instead of dinosaurs, they need to be spiky/heavily armored IMO. And that goes for all of them. Not just Slag and Snarl

    Actually if it has a dinosaurian looking robot mode then it would make sense.

    I'll find it beyond hilarious if it ends up being Megatron. They wouldn't make Prime a flat-nose semi, but they sneak it in as Megatron...!

    We're not to be honest but the person who took this photo seems to at least know his Transformers. He also seems to "in" with the people on the crew since he posted another photo where he is on the actual set with the Bugatti.

    No, it still wouldn't make any sense, unless we're just supposed to sit back and think because they're dinosaurs they'll use an ancient semi for alt. mode and it'll work.
