    How many Transformers are there supposed to be left in the universe? Like Prime's Autobot crew on earth talk about themselves as if they're the last Autobots left, but is that on Earth, or all over? Also, Cemetery Wind had those cards of known Transformers on Earth, and they said there were only a dozen Decepticons left on the planet? What happened to all those around the world from DOTM?

    I'm guessing Lockdown and Cemetery Wind did some lighting fast cleanup. As for number of characters that will appear next time your guess is as good as mine.

    It's called shitty writing, and bad consistency. When the director doesn't film for that, then you get AOE. When you write for plot, action, and consistency, you get Planet of the apes series.

    One of my few problems with the movies is that every movie still stresses how few autobots there are left but the next keeps pulling out more autobots without giving them origins so it is like they have always been there. I guess the new three of the age of extinction were just very late to optimus' 2007 call ?

    Was anyone able to catch which Transformers were on the cards during the Cemetery Wind meeting? I just saw Ironhide and Bumblebee.

    If they're going on the route of Quintessons building the Cybertronian race, I'd say infinite since they could just create and develop more. Unless there's a twist...they're dead.

    They'll keep pulling characters out of every continuity. No need to worry

    I want to see Gears and his tight attitude ;P

    If you're referring to the Decepticons that arrived in DOTM via space-bridge transport, I'm pretty sure a lot of them were dragged back into the space-bridge when the pillars were destroyed, along with the plethora of Decepticon ships.

    Since comics and novel adaptations dont count in the movie universe I think these are still alive.

    Sideswipe
    Dino
    Jolt
    Roadbuster
    Topspin
    Mudflap
    Skids
    Brains
    Crosshairs
    Drift
    Hound
    Bumblebee
    Optimus Prime

    Anybody think of anyone else who might be alive?

    Some saw Sideswipe's card without a red X (meaning he's alive, like Bee). I think Arcee was seen, too.
