So I think it's safe to assume Starscream (and Skywarp?) will too get the leader Skyfire body according to that cover?

That's like, a body per year for Screamer?

Looks like Devastator has his old head back as well.

I'm guessing Prowl uses the Enigma of Combination to rid himself of Scrapper's personality in his head, and it likely gets dumped into poor old Scoop.

Oh jeez. It looks as though we'll be seeing Ultra Prime here.

I just hope the story quality stays up, and doesn't go down.

That description is so blunt, it's either very simple and he'll just die, or there's way more to it and he won't. Never know with JR.

iirc, he already mentioned in his one (or two?) appearances that his time was running short.

The first introduction to him during Dark Cybertron (or just before that) has him reveal that his ship, Vis Vitalis, is a giant life support machine. So yes, there is that.

His grave statue should depict him falling from the sky riding Skullcruncher.

I'm a cigar chomping, Energon guzzling, crotchety old bot that's tough as nails, two days older than dirt, can out grouch Ironhide, out-complain Huffer, leave Bluestreak speechless with a single glare and make Grimlock back down in a stare-off. If you're nice, and extremely lucky, I may only tell you to go blow it out your exhaust pipe!
