None would be nice but that's just wishful thinking. Can't we for once go through a movie without loosing any autobots? Prime doesn't count. Just two left of the original five. Already gone through so many other characters that could have had a chance if really given one. Now that we've got new ones I'd really hate to see them suffer the same fate unless they're at that level of annoyance and intolerance to the point where I just don't care. I like Crosshairs, Drift and Hound. If them eventually biting the dust just has to happen at least don't let it be in this movie. Same goes for deceptions even more so since they always end up getting the short end of the stick.
Maybe the only Bot we lose is that mysterious orange Bot, or maybe Wheelie and Brains? If it's one of the remaining 4 Bots, I still think it'll be Hound.
I had a crazy thought, what if Bee does get killed by Optimus and then the Bumblebee movie is a prequel.
Then Hasbro might risk creating the 2017 Bumblebee Incident to go right along with the 1986 Optimus Incident. They aren't going to do it, Bumblebee has too much popularity behind him, especially with the kids. I even one time encountered a child while waiting for a table in a restaurant. I complimented his shirt which was a Transformers Prime shirt before asking him who was his favorite character; sure enough his answer was Bumblebee. Not to mention another good example would be my last Halloween where so many children in my town practically were overjoyed to see Bumblebee handing out candy. Trust me, him getting killed off wouldn't sit well with them, heck it already doesn't sit well with them that Bumblebee gets beaten up by Optimus in the trailer. If they are gong to kill him off the safest route they would do is the same one used in Prime where he was killed and then promptly revived within a minute.
