I don't want Arcee to kill Airachnid. Let Megatron do his job and have Arcee sitting on the sidelines with a bag of popcorn and a cup of some expensive oil.

 

As fr as i know they haven't asked her voice actress to come back, buut i digress, she could be alive for season 3

 

No offense, just using this post as an example...

I miss the days when we weren't so clued in on the background information about the production of a series. We shouldn't know future plot points and the existence/absence of characters based on whether or not actors are signed on or released from contracts, etc...

I remember recently that someone was like "well, it was said in this interview that Soundwave was going to speak in season 2, and this is the last episode of season 2, so HE MUST SPEAK AND I KNOW IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN."

and he didn't.

So.... yeah i just am tired of people using production information as a way to predict plot points on the show.

again, SG Hailstorm - no offense. So you say they haven't called back Airachnid's VA. That didn't stop them from bringing Cliffjumper back (albeit in a flashback) without bringing Dwayne Johnson to play him.

Anything is possible.

 

None taken =) its just a speculation afterall

 

If Airachnid comes back I would rather have it be a one episode thing than anything.

We already have Predacons being added to the story and I would rather have episodes focus on the new threat than bringing back old bad guys. It would get too clogged up.

 

hope she died, less threat for prime team

 

Less threat to any living being.

 

That's likely to be the case. If so then she better go out in style.

 

It would be good writing to have her survive. This is fiction after all, so how exactly doesn't matter to me. She could go solo taking out both sides, but paying a little homage to Blackarachnia whenever she inadvertently helps the Autobots.

 

I don't know what Burnouts referring to because we saw the explosions for both Seaspray and Makeshift. Like you said, Makeshift had a grenade stuck on him and Seaspray's ship was blown to bits. It was obvious both were dead.
Makeshift was a one episode character used to create a dilemma. He wasn't exactly wearing plot armor.

The only example I can think of is Silas' death. And I think there's a good reason why we couldnt be shown KnockOut slowly pulling him apart fiber by fiber, or the aftermath.

 

Crazy Theory #____:

She's alive, the stasis pod is busted open, she escapes, finds Predaking attractive, he does not return her affections, eats her. *nom* *nom* *nom* *burp*

Total time on screen: 4 min
Total # of lines: 9
Total # transformations: 2

 

Airachnid could be in the statis pod

 

I'd like to believe this.
She would need to be released, to understand the situation and drill away too far she ever could.
