Fixed.

 

Thanks

I hadn't noticed.  

 

Based on the Botcon clip shown to a privileged few, going with Cliffjumper.

Here's Lumpy's post.

I'm at the hall of fame dinner at Botcon, and they showed a clip (possibly a flashback) of Arcee and Cliffjumper talking to Starscream and he introduces

Spoiler

Shockwave's eye

then panned out to a full animation model. I'm in the back so I couldn't get a picture.

 

Springer?

 

It'll be Powerglide. Who immediately dies of robo-AIDs.

PARTNURZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I'm guessing/hoping for Ironhide, Jazz, Hound, Sideswipe, Prowl, Mirage, Hot Shot.

 

i would like to see hot shot.

 

I think it would be Tailgate. Cause when Arcee had a flashback from the War on Cybertron you didn't actually see Tailgate get destroyed you only saw the shadow on the wall.

 

You mean the shadow on the wall that had his blood splattered over it when Airachnid cut him open?

I fairly sure that implies he's dead.

 

Ha, times like these, you really do live up to your sig-quote  

 

I never got the logic behind giving Cybertronian robots accents.

As in, they are from Cybertron, which I'm assuming doesn't have any kind of European regions like Earth does, considering they are two totally unrelated astronomic bodies, containing two totally unrelated kinds of lifeforms, and yet we hear these robots talk and some of them are from England and Russia and so on and so forth.

When, inevitably, they're all just from Cybertron. Where it's reasonable to assume that such nations are nonexistent and probably don't coincidentally have alternative copies of themselves on on the aforementioned giant metallic planet.

But, hey, in a world with giant talking robots, I suppose anything is possible.

 

To be fair, Optimus mentions they've learnt Earth's languages through the Internet. Presumably, Jazz, Ironhide and others picked their accents because they liked them.

I recall in the novel they initially spoke Chinese to Sam/Mikeala, because it is technically the most common language, before realising that the duo spoke English.

 

They said when they kill a character, the character is dead. I HIGHLY doubt it's Cliffjumper.

 

I know. It just feels like they'll pull a stupid copout and clone him or something


I'd much rather he stay dead though

 

Okay, I'm going to throw out 2 guesses that NO ONE has suggested:
Rodimus and Blackarachnia.

 

No Blackarachnia. That's a pathetic attempt to clone Airachnid right there.

 

Guys.

Guys.

It's Arcee's OLD friend.

It's KUP.

 

or maybe.... jetfire?

 

What connection does Jetfire have to Arcee?
