Thanks to Instagram user deezy_ftw, we have even MORE Transformers 5 speculation to pass along. Spotted on the set of Transformers 5: The Last Knight, is a vehicle that has fans speculating about who the character could be. Given how this beat up Mercedes truck is covered in junk and garbage (an enormous amount actually), many members of TFW are calling for this to be none other than the obvious choice of Wreck-Gar. Of course this is all just speculation at this point, but with the influx in movie news recently, as well as four prior movies of the same trend, this is what happens when filming begins!
Enjoy the speculation TFW, discussion thread link below!

I read a comment somewhere that Robin Williams (God rest his soul) would have been perfect for Wreck-Gar. To whoever said that, I say great minds think alike. I\'ve harbored that thought since 2013, when he still was alive.

Yeah I can't see it.
If Robin Williams were still alive, he'd be perfect.

The picture is taken by a local cupcake company. A bit of self-promotion.

I had a dream last night. Wreck-Gar voiced by Ralph Fiennes.
Wouldn't work would it?

I could totally see three to four bots jumping out of that. All junked up, asymmetrical. Possibly swapping parts to form different vehicles.

What's with the cupcakes propped up on the passenger side of the front bumper?

I'm gonna say it here. It is Megatron or Galvatron.

Just wait till the paint app less toy gets released. Gonna look like the back half of the truck is just lumpy.

Yeah this looks to be a perfect alt mode for someone like Wreck Gar. I mean unless this is someone new or Junkheap I can't think of anyone better suit for this type of alt mode.
Hounds Belly
It has some of the jetfire parts from TF2!!
maybe the autobots will build the Arielbots???

I hope it transforms, but the fandom does have a habit of thinking vehicle will when it doesn't.
Remember the sighting of Dino in the China filming, only for it to turn out to be not TF related at all and in fact a Chinese car expo?
While this is official and that was not, the point of the fandom clinging to random theories still stands.
Lord Dcast
It's likely going to be a Transformer, considering how much effort into its design has been put in. However, as a fandom we have to be careful when making assumptions. Not everything is going to transform in that movie.

It won't just be explosion fodder, it's too bizarre. It will serve some purpose. I think Cade's truck is the best non TF theory I seen.
I do like the poster's idea that this could end up being a bunch of Junkions, ala the Ice Cream Twin in ROTF. That idea deserved more than the 30 seconds it got.

I'm going to laugh (and cry) when we find out this is just the new Megatron (back as another junker). Probably not the case, but the reminder about the cloak turned my mind that way.

If it's not a transformer, it'll probably still be important. It's practically, and somewhat literally, carrying all the leftover baggage from the previous films in its cargo bed! That's gotta be intentional, right?
Lord Dcast
Hm…Ashley does bring up a good point. Whenever we see a new car the first thing a fandom screams is 'TRANSFORMER!', when in all honesty it could just be explosion fodder.
That said, I still hope it is. It would provide a unique design to the franchise.
I'm also glad that Bay is sharing these images to keep the fans engaged. It's going to be a good year of speculation, news and reveals.

It's Kup, and he's the last Knight.
Edwardmus Prime
Is there evidence pointing to this? Not that it is unbelievable, after that thing with Shane's car and all. That really looked like it could be a Transformer.
AshleyCuadra
Its NOT a transformer

Probably going to transform into a group of Junkion robots. Wreck Gar being the cab, and the rest junk bots.
