Huge Flickr Gallery of the Transformers Set by amit

A friend of ours on the set of Michael Bay’s Transformers sent us a link to his giant collection of images he’s graciously posted on Flickr. Many of the pics include mangled metal, crashing cars, Michael Bay looking pretentious, and much more. Also making a debut is the blue screen model of none other than Optimus Prime. The gallery is basically a Transformers fanboy’s playboy (luckily with no articles).
