The 3D robot fighting extravaganza also marks Michael Bay's first experience in making 3D movies.

However, the wait will be longer for Chinese audiences as the film is not due for release in China until July 21 as previously planned.

According to inside sources, the film has successfully passed official examination and is ready for dubbing in Beijing. It is not yet known whether the film will be available to view in the IMAX 3D format.
