Thanks to SFTE forum member "Shadow" here are some pics from the Air Force Memorial set.
We see the Mack truck leading The Dreads. I believe this is an indirect confirmation that the truck is a Decepticon. And the rumor that we've heard earlier (I laughed at it) that the truck is actually Megatron's new alt mode begins to sound more real.
So I guess this makes Megatron a tripple changer.

Here is another closer look of the Mack truck:



Have you noticed the kills count on the door? I don't expect there will be so many Autobots to kill, so maybe this is human casualties counter.

I do like that truck. Hoping it'll make a good toy.

Well, there go my hopes that it's Grimlock or my speculation that despite the looks, it's Magnus.

If it is Megatron, at least it means there will be a leader class toy to match Optimus, because that truck actually looks badass. It wouldn't be so good if it was just a deluxe or voyager size. So here's hoping it might be Megatron.

It could still be Motormaster without the Stunticons.

And if you notice on the door, there are tallies carved in it, perhaps for the number of kills this particular character has had in the past, or has in the movie. I wonder if Bay got the idea for this truck from The Road Warrior or Death Race.

Me like.

Bay: "Hey, fans, I know you wanted more human/Autobot deaths, so we gave ______ kill tallies!"
Fans: "But we want to SEE the deaths, not just have them implied."
Bay: "......."


Hey, if rumor's true, no more visible face in alt. mode for Megs! Yay!!
(and being on the same playing field as Optimus is pretty cool, too)

Looks like the hood ornament is a Tyrannosaurus.......

So, some pictures of this truck driving down the street with some known Decepticon vehicles in tow makes it Megatron? Could they just have been arriving at the set in that order or were they actually filmed chumming around?

Wow, I didn't even pay attention to that. It's tough to tell for me, but if you can clearly see that it's a T-Rex and not a bulldog, then Grimlock might still have a chance yet...

Or it's just a shout-out to Beast Wars Megatron.

there's no way the truck is a bot now can't wait to see a bot mode

More close ups.

OK, it's a bulldog after all. Oh well. But they could have put that skull of that steer on the front. Would have looked cooler.

Damm that would be sweet if its Grimlock. Might be too much too hope for though.

it looks like a pit bull
