I think it's ironhide. (Seeing as how there's a legends toy planned for him)

 

I'm guessing Ironhide, or Prowl, with an outside chance of Sideswipe. Out of those three however, I'd leaning towards Prowl though, if only because Bumblebee and Bulkhead already fullfill the same roles that those two do. Unless the 'death of Bulkhead' speculation ends up happening, then I could see Ironhide being brought in.

And I could see David Kaye making a good Prowl or Ironhide.

 

Hasbro said that there are no plans for him in the show yet

 

I'd really like to see Prowl get some love and attention, not just a walk on here and there. But...any of the Autobots out there would be a welcome addition to the existing gang!!  

 

yeah for both Knockout and Starscream being around my two favorite characters!!!!!!!

 

does this mean that there is a new autobot because someone dies in the season finale?

 

i hope it is ANY cool scout like the cool car mode and cool fighting technique(such as wheeljack) im hoping it is hot shot

 

if I'm not mistaken, which is entirely possible, Miko's VA played a teacher in this summers round of Target ( I think ) commercials. And if it isn't her it sounds a crap load like her.

 

I'm hoping for Ironhide. He would have a simalar tough guy role as Bulk, but they could play it up as Optimus' oldest friend. If it is Ironhide I hope they do the usual thing and have him and Rachet with the same basic chassis.

If it isn't Ironhide I'm hoping for Grimlock. Although I have no doubt that they would screw Grimlock up royaly by making him be made on Earth and stupid. I do love the stupid versions of Grimlock from both the G1 toon and TF Animated ( animated had the best lines ever ) but I prefer the Comic versions of the Dinobots.

 

Yes.  

 

Bringing Ironhide in would be pointless really. We already got Ratchet was Optimus' old friend and Bulkhead as bruiser.

I'm hoping for new characters too because being new there are no past expectations of them and thus they can surprise us more with their role and actions.

 

This thread replies about David Kaye. Has he been confirmed to be one of the voices?

 

^He is indeed confirmed to be doing a voice, though I believe he mentioned it's a villain.

 

Yeah, Probably using his Megatron voice, yeeeeessss!!!

 

Who ever the new 'Bot is, I'll be surprised if he stays longer then two episodes.

 

Awesome. About time we get a new bot. Can't wait to find out what character it is

 

I don't think he mentioned that tidbit.

I think somebody asked him about it during Auto Assembly, and the voice he demonstrated was more Hound-like than Megatronish.

 

hopefully Ironhide, Prowl or Sideswipe.

 

Ah, my bad. Thanks for the clarification.
