    I wouldn't mind a trench coat para trooper/sharpshooter bot to be called Slingshot. But I'm pretty sure people would say, "Slingshot is an Aerialbot!" :lol

    Crosshairs (G1) - Transformers Wiki

    This dude..... He's a Targetmaster.

    I'm still not sure if Movie Crosshairs is anything similar to this guy. I'm comparing the two guys at the moment.

    Crosshairs isn't a triple changer nor a military vehicle, so...

    Thanks, guys!

    Finally caught it FOR SURE on my 18th & 19th viewings last night but the theater's sound was awful and it IS kinda hard to make out clearly anyway.

    When I redeem my Regal points and go back for my 20th & 21st viewings later today I'll try and pin it down more definitively, but I'm pretty sure it was something to the effect of...

    "THE CREATORS WANT TO SWEEP THE CHESSBOARD CLEAN."

    I'll have to watch more closely to try and get a positive ID on the driver, but the other guy is DEFINITELY Michael Bay.

    In the ksi building where theres a crapload of drones with longhauls suspender pieces also noticed lockdowns grenade doesnt kill optimus or the humans even though they're right next to it, it just makes a massive shockwave that misses them and kills a load of drones
    Last one but does twinshockwave have shockwaves mind since it had shockwaves head?

    It's funny that even though he can totally take them and the seed to a safer place with his helicopter mode, Drift is the first one to suggest them to use the random car.

    Did anyone notice that the yellow dump trucks near the start are owned by the "Michael Bay Mining Co"?

    Is it just me, or does the gun Marky Mark uses when it reveals it's a gun look like a sci-fi version of the British Sten?

    Optimus has the same gun as he does in DOTM while in his rusted form.

    Crosshairs calling Scorn "Spike" could be reference to the G1 human Character.

    He had the same gun in his new form as well (with added flames) and the sword as well, we see them in the Galvatron battle.

    One of gets killed by Hound. You get a good shot of the other one before Prime sets off Lockdown's grenade but you never see it get killed in the explosion. This gives me hope for Shockwave's redemption in Transformer5 although I hope he ditches his 2nd head.

    When the autobots are about to board the Nightship, you can clearly say Crosshairs saying something but no words are actually heard. He was just probably saying something smarmy.

    The final battle was actually the shortest of the 4 movies, timing in at 16 minutes.
