I thought I saw his bumper among the Decepticon pieces thrown into the ocean. :-?

I watched and he was on the highway with Bonecrusher, and then no where in the city...

I think he'e gone, but as was said above, we didn't see it, so it didn't happen!

He is far more interesting than Prowl ever was and acts just like a 'Con should. No regard for humans, takes what he wants and is seriously pissed off. His tech spechs don't match the way he acted in the movie though. I thought it was great. I really hope he comes back in some way.

ARE YOU LADIESMAN217?!?

WHERE IS EBAY ITEM #52118?!?

He owns. And I don't know about you guys, but I was seriously expecting him to say something like this after he knocked Sam off his bike: "ACCORDING TO EARTH LAWS IN THIS REGION YOU ARE IN VIOLATION FOR NOT WEARING A PROTECTIVE CASING AROUND YOUR HEAD UNIT"

before he went loco on him about the glasses and the userman. :grin:

Still awesome.

As a fan of Autobot Prowl and Red Alert, I must say the police car works even better as a Decepticon. And I love Barricade's sleek black look, and in the bot mode it looks menacing and intimidating, like it can interrogate you. I do wish that Barricade had lived, and maybe even show up in anime series from now on. A cool Decepticon should not be wasted and forgotten.

He didn't die.

That's good then. I thought his death scene was a deleted footage or got mentioned in the novelization of the movie.

I want Barricade to live on and wreck more havoc in the sequel.

He was the coolest character in the movie (because Soundwave wasn't in it *grrr*) I was so impressed with him. He was such a badass and very intimitading indeed.

Barricade is my new favorite Decepticon in the move. In order:

1. BARRICADE!
2. Blackout
3. Starscream
4. Bonecrusher
5. Frenzy (the little b*stard wouldn't die! Tough little critter)
6. Megatron
7. Brawl

I commonly take my Deluxe Barricade, shove it in my dad's face, and scream, in a falsetto Barricade voice: "ARE YOU USERNAME LADIESMAN217?!"

He was so awesome, but I much prefer Frenzy.

If it was me, instead of Sam on that hood when he said that, I'd have had crapped and peed in my pants right then and there. He is an awesome 'Con. :cool:

The toy is even cool. i have no problems with his shooting arm, thank goodness.

I'd say there is a chance he could survive to the sequels. He didn't die in the film, so there is room for Bay to bring him back.

Maybe Barricade could find Megs, who the cube has morphed into Galvatron, making him totally insane;)

Meanwhile starscream thinks Megs is dead and returns to Earth with a few of his buds, only to see Megs and co back, and as they say... hijinx ensue;)

He didn't die, he managed to slip away just like Starscream. Unlike Brawl and Blackout, he knew when to cut his losses. Plus, he seemed (to me) to be smarter than those other two. He was more cunning, secretive, and so on.

Well, supposedly, his "death" scene was cut, for whatever reason. We do see parts of him being tossed in the ocean at the end of the film.

Confirmed by the comic. I haven't read the movie novelization yet, so I can't say if it is in there or not.

Somebody ask Michael Bay... :???:

I think Barricade was cool.

Your dad obviously doesn't hit you hard enough.
