Looks like a one-seat crane truck converted into a prime mover. |

Kind of looks like another Caterpillar 773B, either without a dumper or with the dumper behind it. Maybe a low-profile dumper designed to operate underground? |

Here's a (model) of 789C: http://www.flickr.com/photos/doncampbellmodels/267999256/ Here's a 793B: http://vantageequipment.net/sm_trucks.jpg It think it's a Caterpillar 789C Mining. |

Transformers fansites say it's a Komatsu HD465-7 articulated dump truck. It certainly looks like one: http://i33.tinypic.com/98vgyf.jpg BUT they've apparently done something to the bed. Whether this was done by the film crew or if this is a standard option for that model, I can't say. |

Is there still a doubt that it's a Komatsu? |
◊ 2009-11-01 05:03 |
I'm doubtful. There are some other views visible in the movie. I'd like to see some more stills before reaching a conclusion. |

Are the cement mixer, front-end loader and shovel loader listed? |
◊ 2009-11-12 06:22 |
The front-end loader is not. |

I'm pretty convinced this is a Caterpillar 773B with a modified dumper arrangement (I have been unable to find a match for this unusual configuration). Compare the shape of the cab and the area around the headlights: Caterpillar 773B: http://www.waltersplantsales.co.uk/upload/bcar_71.jpg Komatsu HD465: http://jarpequipment.com/equip/2000/2167/pics/2167-01.jpg |

Wow, good call. So is it missing its bed? |

I know it's small, but in this pic of Devastator is a small pic of the truck, labeled as a "CAT 773B End Dump." It's a tipper trailer or something, but I can't find anything else about this configuration.![]() |

It's a special coal hauling version |
