I keep looking at pictures at the Autobots and Decepticons in the movie, and do the characters have kibble? Not on the toy, in the movie?

nto really most of it is divided throught the whole body considering the toys can't separate all the car parts into little pieces

In the movie? They are all kibble!

Apart from the occasional headlight, window and bumper-piece, they're totally kibble-free. Just huge heapings of jagged metallic pieces.

In the movie, the car parts actually split into loads of pieces, hence their flexibility and agility.

I watched a interview with bay and he said he wanted it to be realistic so the parts actually went on the body!

If this series was named "Robots In Ghillie Suits", would that be of any help?

The cgi robots in the movie don't have kibble for the same reason the cel-shaded cgi robots in Cybertron and Energon, as well as the cel-drawn robots in the cartoons don't: unlike the toys, they don't need to adhere to physics. If something doesn't fit into the design of the robot, it conveniently disappears (or, if you prefer, "breaks down into tiny pieces and goes somewhere you just can't see it").

Yep.

Like the mystery of G1 Prime's trailer...

Bummblebee's "wing" doors in robot mode, Ironhide's "shoulder pad" truck grill parts, and jazz'z car trunk spoiler "backpack" are the closest you can get to kibble in the movie, I think.
