  I remember the chaos when one was unloaded from a ship a couple of years ago.

  Apparently the journey took longer than expected as this monster had three punctures on its journey to the docks.
  
  I wonder if it will be returning once it has been repaired if so more disruption in the future.

  I went to have a look this evening,would have took some pics if i had a modern phone with a camera.I couldnt see the Transformer so it must be loaded onto the ship,just the trucks were there.Noticed it was a different company than the one which came a few years back.
