    I got fired from my current day time job at a mazda dealership because they didnt want to give me time off to be in this movie.

    Whats more interesting is the white cab semi with blue trailer that caught my eyes. Ultra Magnus, or just a coincidence?

    looks like a different version of a Protoform Vehicle Mode we haven't seen until now OR just a small set piece made for a much larger ship/something Cybertronian. have no clue what that other piece on the other flat be could be but seems to be connected to the bigger piece though.

    [​IMG]
    the next piece on the other flat bed seems to have an alien gun look to it

    here's 2 thoughts/theories: modified/upgraded parts for Jet Prime Mode OR components for the rumored Combiner/Combiners

    Agreed. That truck needs to be in the toyline at least.

    Actually it does kind of even LOOK like their base in TFA. Perhaps they based the animation of this plant.

    Super movie crossover with plenty of potential for fan rage. :)

    I wonder if it's one of the engines from TF2 power up prime. the one he shrugged off at the end of the movie? the exhaust nozzles look about the same.

    I'm getting more excited for this movie than the second...

    The Set reminds me of the opening scene of Robocop.
