Thanks to 2005 Board Member 245am and Jimmy88, we have the possible confirmation regarding the Trailer of Optimus Prime in Transformers 3 as we posted few moments ago.
Jimmy88 not only managed to take some good photos of a Chicago Filming, but 245am also recorded a video from the filming scene.
The images confirm the return of “The Twins”; Skids and Mudflap in a very modified manner (Just like we’ve seen in the pictures earlier).
Also, Ironhide is slightly modified here and there.
The video will feature Optimus Prime, Ratchet, Bumblebee, The Red Ferrari, Convertible Sideswipe and a new mysterious purple vehicle.
You can enjoy the video below and click on the Title Bar to take a look at Optimus with his Trailer, The “New” Twins and the “Modified” Ironhide.
Update 1: Possible images of some Decepticons / Stunticons. Whatever they are, they’re NASCAR style vehicles armed to the teeth!
Update 2: Some more photos added. Action sequences.
Don’t forget to read 245am’s detailed report about the filmed scene on our 2005 Boards.

They were on the Wacker Dr set on Monday morning. I got pics somewhere on my iPhone. I had thought they were done and the traffic issues around Michigan Ave were over. So, needless to say, got to work 10 min late on Mon.
Btw, I'm going to debunk the Ultra Magnus rumor above: that was another crew truck. So far, the only truck that has been used in the film is Optimus.

my buddy said he saw 3 bradley tanks on set today

I think this stands a good chance of being Ultra Magnus actually..
MTME
there;s another video angle of it in news and rumors it is bumblebee
Starscreamownz
I think thats actually a taxi. Because Bumblebee is a more rounded and wide car and that one has a sort of sharp edges like a taxi.

Hancock Building
Is this for shooting or just for some sort of cast party? I walked by there this morning and saw nothing unusual. There are filming signs up about two blocks away on Pearson for July 20-23 but there was no equipment there either.
I went by the set on Wacker and Ratchet and Bumblebee are parked right at Michigan and Wacker again, didn't see if the other vehicles were there as well.

Is the video still up? I just tried to get it up and said it wasn't available. Thought I would ask. BTW, where is LastPrime at? Haven't heard from hir in awhile now. Makes me wonder if its Bay or Kruger now too. I honestly think the score that Nelson reported must be something we didn't get to hear on ROTF cause like that music that was posted on that video from the first weekend wasn't what was on the soundtrack but did sound like what I heard on ROTF since I just watched it recently on DVD.
