    This is a reason why the show turned me off. They've a tendency to kill the characters with the most potential (Dreadwing, Breakdown) or the most personality (Cliffjumper) and keep what I sometimes consider the dead weight.

    I can. Megatron made the simple choice of choosing the threat he knows over the threat he doesn't, as well as the minion who had it in his best interest to serve him at the moment over the one who had it in his best interest to betray him at the moment.

    Anyone miss Makeshift? He had so much potential. The Decepticons need another shape shifter.

    Personal opinion here, but Makeshift was a walking plot device that never even had his own CGI model. I say to hell with him. :lol

    There are so many times when I watch the show that I get thinking "damn it's too bad they killed off Cliffjumper instead of Bumblebee". The Rock talking smack and giving Cliffjumper a massive ego would be so much more fun that Bumblebee beeping his lines.
