Well you guys all know this huge BB figure they assembled right? Well, what was the purpose? Was it in the movie?

Yes, it was used as a prop in the movie. If I'm right, they created a Frenzy one too, along with Megatron's feet.

The BB was used in the "Hoover Dam" scene where he was being transported there after being captured by S7.

Where was it in the movie? I thought all the bots in the movie were computer generated.

Also used when he was first captured, intercut with a CGI version. You can tell its a model because it doesn't move and its head is sunk down to the floor (because its limp and not moving!)

Maybe he doesn't own the 2 disc edition. I don't, I got the Wal Mart 2 disc.

Anyways, that thing is killer cool, and I'd like to display that in my yard.

No they used actual bots in the movie, it costed them like a mill something to do one... that's why they only had ;ike 11 bots in there, they would've had more, but budget... they used real bots yeah.... on primes bot mode, the tire tracks are the same as the truck.... that shows alot of detail!

Oh wait, the thing about the tire tracks? I'm not sure about it... but it'd be cool if they did it, if they didn't then whatever it doesn't even matter, I like how they brought it up though.
