    If you strip away our pre-conceived notions of what "Blitzwing" should look like based on G1, it's not a bad name for that design and character.

    Blitz = an intensive or sudden military attack. (Google definition)
    Blitz = an intensive aerial military campaign. (Merriam-Webster)

    Isn't that exactly what he does in the description of the footage? Suddenly and unexpectedly pops up to attack Bumblebee? In a bubble, it's actually a more appropriate name than "Starscream". (I get that we're not in a bubble, but I can see why they used this name.)

    Do we have anyone here who saw the footage at Comic-Con? If so, would it be possible to describe more of Blitzwing's design? The clip in the trailer is halfway transformed, and kind of obscured. I'm curious what the full design looks like...

    Which is why I don't think Shatter is a Harrier.
