    Never really cared for Dino, but Sideswipe disappearing magically sucks.

    Like how they explained the Twins, Jolt's and Arcee's disappearance?
    Although when the main humans disappear, that's another story...

    We saw a "muddy/dirty" Ratchet truck from DOTM being moved somewhere (although there's no evidence it was for shooting).

    so no Dino or sideswipe this reminds me of a song lyric -

    Another one bites the dust
    Another one bites the dust
    And another one gone, and another one gone
    Another one bites the dust
    Hey, I'm gonna get you too
    Another one bites the dust

    Poor Dino and sideswipe ar now in CGI heaven with other decepticons and autobots

    R.I.P ......

    This is so stupid. First Jolt, then the twins. Are they going to try and make us forget the Wreckers too? Maybe if they concentrated a little more on the actual Transformers instead of all the stupid human crap they would have time for the characters they already have.

    The other day while they were showing pics of the filming I noticed a white concept camaro sitting at the front of a pic,and I realize could that possibly be Tailgate,I mean why would it be there if its not a character of him?

    So they are cutting 2 barely used undeveloped characters and replacing them with several other undeveloped characters?

    How is Sideswipe not in this when they're still using the Stingray? Does Hasbro have a trademark about to expire that they need to slap on this mold?

    While I could care less about Dino, I thought Sideswipe was cool & could have been utilized more.

    But yeah, I'm concerned about Ratchet. After all, they're still gonna be fighting, they need their medic.

    And 100% agree :rip  Ironhide. That was one of the biggest piss-me-off BS scenes in a movie in my life.

    Guess we can scrap the idea of the Lambor and the Pagani being Sideswipe and Dino.

    Never said I wanted Lambor to be Sideswipe, Just Dino as the Pagani, but when I saw the doors of the car I knew it probably wasn't Dino.

    I was really hoping Sideswipe would be the new 2014 Corvette, it would be logical: hardtop in ROTF, convertible DOTM, new in AOE. I don't understand Ferrari, must not realize how many kids would love to have a Dino/Mirage TF with their trademark on it to bring in the dough.

    No, they're apparently cutting two very cool characters that people who bothered to pay attention really liked.

    Honestly a shame I was hoping too see them in action............they could've been left in the movie if Bee and Optimus where left. Wreckers included.

    All you had to do was give Dino a new alt.mode hell the Pagani would've been nice. Or at least some others kind of sports car. Also the voice actor is an easy fix. Yes Quinn did a great job reason why I love Mirage even the more. Yet I'm pretty sure there's a voice actor that can do his voice....why not the guy who did the DOTM Game Mirage?

    Also Sideswipe he was actually epic. He's a swordsman and uses guns really well. So he's almost like the ultimate assassin. I mean new alt.mode not that hard for him. Voice actor well if you changed him to sound older then eh why not.

    Also both of them are the reason I tolerate Bee. Them being young on the team they hang and battle with Bee. Also in DOTM they worked well together. Hell I could actually see them branching off as there own group from Prime. Optimus sending them on covert mission's scouting or attack.

    Dude, Bay needs to put Sideswipe and Sunstreaker in the movie. That's too bad.

    I'm really bothered by the treatment of some characters in the film. Sideswipe was my favorite Autobot and they just throw him out like trash. If you would at least explain what happened it would make things a little better but ditching him all together just bothers me.

    Bay does that. He just kills characters off too make new one's come in. Though none of that is truly necessary. I think Bay would just have a problem keeping track of all the characters. That and the more characters he learns about........the more he losses interest in the one's he's already introduced.
