Hound, a chubby boisterous bruiser robot that transforms into a military vehicle, carries an array of weaponry and is voiced by John Goodman. He also seems pretty loyal to Optimus and frustrated with the humans.
Crosshairs, Drift, Galvatron and Lockdown. (Although Optimus and Bee were really good in this one. I also thought Stinger was cool!)
Honestly, I liked all of the robot characters for the roles they played in this film. About Galvatron, I enjoyed him a lot when he was on screen, and I enjoyed his origin story. He does play a major role even if he doesn't appear on screen for the longest time, and he definitely is a formidable opponent on his own for Prime and the Bots. Having said that, I saw him as being set up for TF 5, so I hope he's an epic villain in the next installment. I suspect he'll have a larger role in the next one.
I don't see how AoE Optimus was any different than in the previous three movies. Unless you mean looks, I guess. I guess my favorite was Lockdown. The idea of him being disdainful of both factions and thinking of the entire war as a dumb, childish joke was appealing to me.
Mirage laughed on the highway in DOTM. Bee and drift were my favorite. Crosshairs was cool and all but I didn't even get to see him transform. not even a little or half shot of him transforming. I wanna know where that coat comes from.
Took me a while to get used to how damn serious he was and the shock of how gruesomely he killed people but Lockdown. He was so bad ass, and a really good update to the original character. After that, Hound was enjoyable, mostly, and Optimus, after finally getting some reasons for being so rage filled, plus having it dialed down, became one of the most interesting versions of the character.
Ah ok. I've only watched DotM twice so don't remember much. And I hear you on that with Crosshairs...my only real disappointment really tho.
Ratchet. Everybody else had more screen time but all of them had zero personality. Spouting one liners doesn't make a character.
