Anyone care to discuss who or what you think the black TF looking thing is in the lower left of the pic? Looks like its standing farther back on the platform so only its upper body is visible. But it looks to have headlights on its cheats but its mass and head remind me of Ironhide? Shoulders are different though.

It's either Lockdown's henchman, or just an object.

 

It does look like a Ironhide based figure. What little bit you can see does have an Ironhide resemblance

 

Whatever it is, it does have a very Ironhide-like look to it. I half wonder its its the same thing OP is leaning over in lockdowns ship when he asked Cade how many more of his kind must be sacrificed.

 

It doesn't look like a TF to me. Possibly a piece of equipment?

 

Ik agree
maybe a turret or something like that?

 

I think you might be right, Tony. I'm seeing either a crouched being or the upper torso, like you said. We'll find out (not) soon enough!

 

I can see the Ironhide resemblance. But don't you think he looks like Drift as well?

 

Now that you mention it, it does kind of look like a black-ish drift. And there does look to be something on his back in the center. Blades or a sword?

 

thought it was this thing.

firing some kind of unfinished effect.

 

What? That's a flag on a flag pole.

 

ah you're right, could never tell what that thing was until you said that.

 

ok wait so you think Lockdown has a bunch of thought dead Autobots (including Ironhide, Sideswipe and others we aren't going to see in this film) and that Lockdown has them on his ship and is maybe either experimenting on them or turning them against Optimus? Is that why Bay said the ship is so special is because what is going on onboard it.

 

Not to mention that TonyFormer has had a sig that has had some sort of significance to the movie almost all the time, and his most recent said,"What's up with all the resurrections".

Coincidence? I THINK NOT!!

 

I'm not saying that at all. Just that the TF/object I pointed out has a very similar look to Ironhide. It could even be the Dread-like SUV we seen on set I guess. But like I said, OP is bent down in lockdowns ship over what looks to me as a black TFs body. When he asks Cade, "How many more of my kind must be sacrificed?" And the TF/object that is in that pic I posted could be one and the same. As for other Autobots being captive on lockdowns ship. It is called a prison ship so that's a very good possibility.

 

Leadfoot was in the one Kreo ship held captive.

And maybe the TF OP is bent over is the Sonic who got in the way of Lockdown's mission?

 

Was there anything left of Ironhide once the rust cannon finished it's job?

Not sure what the object/thing is, but now I can't wait to find out.

 

Nuthin' but tires and license plates.

 

what if it is something like the omega lock?

or a control to those "levitating pillars" that are cyberforming earth... with would be exactly the omega lock in some way if you think about it...

 

I can imagine Leadfoot trying to escape Lockdown but then gets captured while Hound and Bumblebee witness it and then this dialogue happens;
Leadfoot-"Heeellppp!!"
Hound- "who's that?"
Bumblebee (beep noises)
Hound - "...what? " *while looking confused*

On a serious note, maybe Leadfoot is being taken away (or killed) while Hound shouts "noooooooo"?
