    There's been quite a few, and all of that "bAyVeRsE pRiMe Is A mUrDeReR". But what do you think was the most brutal death? For me personally, I would have to say Megatron's "death" in DOTM.

    The Fallen.

    Optimus snarls "Give me your face," while he rips The Fallen's mask off, then shoves his arm through The Fallen's torso, ripping his spark out and crushing it right in front of his face.

    That's a top-tier villain-level kill right there (by which I mean Optimus is the villain :p ).

    Edit: ninja'd

    The Fallen: He got his face ripped off, his heart/ spark pushed out and crushed.

    Lockdown: he got stabbed in the back, then split up the middle.

    Ratchet: he got his leg blown off, then had his spark ripped from his chest.

    Jazz: he got ripped in half while still alive

    Ironhide: he got blasted 3 times in the back and slowly rusted while still alive.

    Those are a few that come to mind...

    Ravage having his spine ripped out has gotta rank up there.

    I've always wondered what would happen to a TF if something got "stuck" in them whilst transforming.

    I no longer wonder.

    For me, I'd say it was a tie between Ratchet in AoE and Ironhide in DOTM. Ratchet was holding back while he was getting fired upon and even after begging for them not to shoot and for mercy, he still ended up getting trashed and his spark ripped out for not revealing Prime's location to Lockdown. With Ironhide, he was only doing his duty and instead of greeting his death head on, he was shot in the back and had to rust away to nothing.

    I guess, if I had to choose, I'd say Ratchet's was just a little worse since we saw him not only getting melted down for scrap but we actually got an honest to goodness rise out of Optimus seeing one of this closest friends being killed. We didn't even get to see Prime's reaction to Ironhide's death in DOTM.

    How about Rampage getting his arms ripped off and getting whipped in the face by a cat spine?

    That's a gruesome one, yes.

    By the same character, too! :D

    Dropkick. Getting ripped limb from limb doesn't get much more brutal tham that.

    I agree with these. For me the context plays a big part. Deaths where a character is helpless or getting hunted down feel more brutal than deaths during battle. Some other examples that come to mind include Sideways and Demolisher in RotF, the generic Decepticon pilot killed by the Wreckers in DotM, and Leadfoot in AoE.
