    Considering she has a spider like form and this show's evident use of creature based characters I think it's highly likely for her to return at some point in the future.

    That is possible given RiD's theme but the following question is 'Will she be the same as we last saw her: A Terrorcon Vampire with an zombie Inspection army'? This is why I doubt we'll see her, or keep her consistent, and most likely we'll simply get another spider character (Hopefully Tarantulas or a new Arachnicon). If she is to appear they will most likely retcon certain aspects of her character.

    However, if this means we get a decent deluxe figure for her I certainly won't be complaining anytime soon.

    Even though she looks like she'd fit in with the whole thematic animalistic Decepticons, her personality just contrasts far too much for this kind of show.

    plus everyone hates her....I do want a better toy for her but it won't be in this toyline where she'll get it.

    But they eventually killed off Breakedown which I'm sure had something to do with the fact that no figures of him were released outside of legions

    No, he's beetles isn't he, not spiders. I keep forgetting that.

    Airachnid's too dark a character. Even if she came from the faux-dark Prime, she's still a sadistic, murderous psychopath who lusts for carnage. Definitely not someone they want on a show they want to be lighter and more fun than Prime.

    Exactly. She contrasts way too much with the tone they are trying to establish for RID2015.

    They left a lot of unexplained things at the end of prime for example Shockwave is still out there somewhere,Soundwave is trapped in the shadowzone along with Skyquake,we don't know if the predacons did kill Starscream or he survived. But Airachnid being the most dangerous of all the decepticons may still be on the moon.I also heard that all those unexplained things will be explained in robots in disguise (2015)

    Considering Airachnid's ridiculously thick Plot Armor that prevented her from being killed on multiple occasions? I highly doubt they'd use her. And I agree, she's a rather dark character to reintroduce to the series.

    Honestly, there aren't many of the original 'Cons you could re-add that wouldn't cause a potentially huge stink. Besides either Shockwave or KO.

    Edit: Wait when was Chop Shop considered NOT a spider? He's very much a spider.

    No, he's made up of Ants.

    Unless they have Team Bee kill Airachnid violently, by ripping her head off and braking her spine, I have no interest in seeing her. She was the worst character on Prime.

    Be funny if they brought Airachnid back and Flich when after her thinking she was either shiny or a morsel to eat. :D

    Could'a swore the Dark Energon zombification severely depleted the Energon reserves until they died. Hence the need to feed on others' Energon. If that's the case, then after feeding off her Insecticon pals up on the moon, she too would perish due to a lack of Energon.
    Could be wrong, though. I'll need to watch the episode again.

    I believe you are indeed correct. Vampiric Cybertronians seem to constantly desire a drink, though whether they're legitimately driven to starvation or simply can't tell if they're full is up to debate. But once Airachnid has driven through her stock, she better hope that a new supply come in soon otherwise she doomed.

    it would also be funny if Chop Shop tries to flirt with Airachnid since those two are spiders

    Yes.

    Airachnid would probably go black widow on his ass.
