    So... By slapping crosses on people make them medics? With that logic the protectobots would be walking Red Cross adverts. They could have made crosshairs a medic, considering he is a scientist.

    Aliens are bound by the Geneva Convention?

    And dirty soldier Autobots not being okay? Things are black and white, friend. It would be boring if every single Autobot was squeaky clean. It's not like every single soldier out there in real life is squeaky clean. Hound is a more interesting character than past movie Autobots because he can be very morally grey, but he's still unquestionably a good guy. I don't ever want to see a Bay film, or really Transformers media in general, where the characters, soldier or not, are all squeaky clean. Because it's not realistic and it's boring.

    I think it might be a good little character development if Hound took up the job of medic out of necessity. They probably won't mention it at all but it's still interesting to see the big violent guy learn to be a bit more gentle and precise since he's training to be the medic.

    Yeah, they are. They are the most interesting to me. IDW Bumblebee may be all good, heroic, noble and law-abiding but its Prowl I want to read about.

    I can see it now. Hound is going to be like should I be a medic and save Bumblebee or should I blast the Decepticons sorry bumblebee I guess you have to die, I can't resist myself, we can always bring you back, thats if we still got your spark, I hope your spark is going to be okay and since your a good guy you have a chance to defeat the Entire Decepticon force at once all by your self. lol.

    You must really hate Bumblebee then who has looked mostly the same despite how the Camero has come in different shapes.

    Also the red crosses are really excessive on Hound.

    So you prefer "good guys" who don't fight back against bad guys?

    To me, that's not a "good guy", that's a "stupid guy", and soon a "dead guy".

    I'm guessing (hoping) that's not finalised
    art. It literally has parts left on it from the Oshkosh mode!

    All those crosses are overkill, he's also got four of his pinup on his new alt mode, which is excessive. It's like they've put as many things on him and Onslaught, knowing the toys won't have any of them because of the increasing lack of paint apps.

    I don't know why everyone thinks the figures will just be repaints. They've got new alt modes, and in the past the characters got new toys even if their alt mode was no different. Sideswipe got three, Jolt and the twins got new figures despite not being in dotm in the end. Even Bumblebee's were remoulded if not entirely new molds.

    Hound, this version of him at least, is not someone I think is suitable as a medical officer.

    Or maybe it's done for laughs: "Get well or I'll kill you!"

    I get that this is just a movie and that they are not bound to human law, but the thing that made Bay's Transformers more than bad was that the Autobots were larger than life. Did they fight dirty, by human standards yes but that is what it takes to take down the big bad Decpticons.

    I feel that Hound is moving into a gray area that could be good for storytelling if someone other than Michael Bay were running the show.

    morally ambiguous warrior medic who smokes........no wonder our children are so confused.


    these character reveals are some great bad comedy.
