    The largest vehicles we seen on set were probably the garbage trucks. But I don't see them taking them apart to ship. Maybe we might see a few Constructicons again. I mean Demolisher was killed in China in ROTF so would China then have the rites to keep his corps or NEST? There could be any number of Chines military or other larger vehicles that Cons would have scanned as well.

    You're right, we didn't see any but Bay said some big vehicles had to be disassembled to be shipped so something big was shipped that we didn't see.

    Yes they did ;)  the Michigan Morion Picture Studio. It's the same studio they filmed the new Wizard of Oz movie in. The whole movie was filmed there. It's a massive studio. That's were I had first seen the 2 green Vettes at. But one was under a tarp so I thought it might have been sideswipe and got excited lol

    At least we know Optimus isn't going to be all about killing random Decepticons this time.
    If Optimus said he will leave Earth just to save the humans
    , he seriously sounds like he cares, unlike the pervious movie.

    What do you mean he didn't care in the previous movie? He refused to leave the planet when the humans turned their back on him and killed Sentinel and Megatron for all the people killed in Chicago. "The day will never come when we forsake this planet and its people." sounds like he cared a lot.

    Tony, I don't know about vehicles (Bay may have said that to throw us off), but as a film enthusiast I know that the previous movies all had props to represent the TFs when CGI wasn't enough to make them look "real". For instance Jetfire's cane, life-size models of bumblebee and frenzy, Blackouts legs, and Megatrons lower body among other things. Could this huge mystery shipment be a prop to represent the Dinobots, e.g. Grimlocks T-Rex Head?

    I doubt that. Dome thing like that being chipped yo China or Hong Kong would stick out and someone would have spotted it. The only vehicles that come to mind that I would think might need to be shipped over seas would have been the larger truck cranes that they would need to hold up green screens or drop cars from, that type of thing. Done of those are big enough that the crane itself would need to be taken apart and assembled on site.
