See Optimus Prime Dodge Explosions In These 'Transformers 4' Set Videos

Transformers 4 is currently shooting action scenes near Adrian, Michigan. The first video here mainly shows the re-vamped Optimus Prime in vehicle mode rolling through some explosions, and the second clip also features the recently revealed Freightliner truck following (or chasing) Prime down the rural road.

Also worth noting are these pics from the Texas set last month of a rusted cab-over-engine truck that bears a heavy resemblance to the classic 1984 version of Optimus Prime. It's probably no coincidence  but looking closer you can also spot traces of faded painted flames, which Bay famously adornes to his big screen versions of the Autobot leader with.

Set for release on June 27, 2014, Michael Bay returns to direct his fourth big screen round of Transformers, whose events takes place five years following the destruction of Chicago in 2011's  Dark of the Moon. The film promises to jump start the series in a new direction with revamped versions of the familiar robotic alien heroes and villains. Mark Wahlberg stars with Kelsey Grammar, Stanley Tucci, T.J. Miller, Nicola Peltz, Sophia Myles, Bingbing Li and of course Peter Cullen (returning to provide the iconic voice of Optimus Prime).
