A whole lot of heavy metal is going on in the world of the Autobots and Dinobots in the new poster and photos for Paramount Pictures’ TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION.

Optimus Prime and Grimlock star in the brand new banner, while the latest images came online today, via USA Today, and feature the Autobots donning their weapons and armor.

With help from a new cast of humans, Optimus Prime and the Autobots rise to meet their most fearsome challenge yet. In an incredible adventure, they are swept up in a war of good and evil, ultimately leading to a climactic battle across the world.
