That suggests to me that Hound and this garbage truck will be having quite the ding dong During the final battle....

I also find the numerous Chevys to be intriguing...though I suspect all they will be are background vehicles or nameless grunt Con's that get crushed by the Bots...

 

OOOOOHH!!!! I like the sound of that!!!

 

You might be right, and I think a lot of the extra GM vehicles will be no name bots and the taxis no name cons.

 

I see Hound, Freightliner, Optimus under cover, and garbage trucks. And the rest of them are in those big white trailers.

 

Looks like we will get 4 big @@$ robots this time around!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Now what if they're all Transformers? That would make my day. I'm kinda tired of seeing protoforms. Give those Cons some alt modes!
Super excited to see videos of filming!

 

is this all (or almost) the cars that are going to be in the Chicago set?



correct me if this is Detroit and not Chicago.

 

dude they are the legion






I would not be surprised if they are put into the bayverse.

 

Actually it's the same place where Ironhide fought with Dreads in DOTM.

 

Was there any filming today?

 

Filming starts tomorrow bud.

 

The closer we get to the end of filming the sooner we can find out characters.

 

Ok this is AWESOME! I can't wait for this weekend, its gonna be huge 

 

DUDE Prime with a police escort down by UIC??!!! I LOVE IT!!!!

 

Is there a thread or anything for information about filiming? I GOTTA find out when to get down there! Went during DOTM filming, and that was great.

 

For tomorrow;

Odd, that there are 2 garbage trucks in that lot, proof that it is the 'Con from DOTM. Lots of foreign taxis too.

 

I'd like to point out that the Garbage Trucks they are using right not have Chinese writing on them, while the one in DOTM has English writing.

 

So... What's not to say the one from DOTM didn't make his way to China. It's been 4 years between events of DOTM and this movie. I'm sure he would be able to make it to china by then lol
