Also - as George Lucas rightly saw - if you keep the same vehicles in all movies, that's a lot less toys you can sell to the kids that bought all those X-Wings, Y-Wings and Tie Fighters after the first one came out.

That seems like going through alot of needless trouble just to confuse fans. What is the simplest answer, that this is all a hoax, or that they are simply moving vehicles around to prepare for filming?
Remember the production of the first movie? They moved Barricade, Brawl, Ironhide and others around on a flatbed truck without even bothering to cover them up, everyone could see them and everyone took photos, all it did was excite people.
As for the Star Wars analogy, it doesn't matter if they re-use the old designs since kids will be buying the toys of new characters and whatever new molds are produced of the existing characters. Hasbro designers would have gotten used to the movie designs by now, so they can probably make better figures - never underestimate them.
Besides, the X-Wings were in all three of the original SW films. They added new vehicles to make new toys, but kept the old classics. Just look at how many different versions of X-Wing toys they are, and people keep buying them.
And I mean really, Scott Farrar said it took 6 months of work to build the CGI model for ONE Transformer. By re-using the designs, you effectively save 54 months worth of man-power, not to mention the money it cost to build those models.

Removed for low bridges, while up on the flatbed the truck is much higher up of course...they will be added back where ever it's destination is and filming begins.

Thank you, Spock, for ignoring my apparently overly-vague reference to MP Prime's smokestacks.
