Why this is still being debated I don't understand. The head and body don't look anything like Barricade. They look more like a protoform. And also seconds before at least one protoform comes blasting down from space after Soundwave traced the Witwicky's location. Why would there be protoforms coming down and why would Barricade already happen to be there? The idea that that was Barricade is merely wishful thinking by some, until someone provides decent evidence otherwise, in movie terms.

I heard it was Rampage in protoform and then in the desert, rampage tran-scanned the bulldozer while waiting for starscream to execute his plan.
Why does it matter? Do we really need to know the identity of the robot, who had a screen time of only 10 seconds at best? I'll give you two words: random protoform and also, cannon fodder.
Also, here's this: In the movie Grindor transforms into a helicopter of different make (a Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion, instead of the MH-53 Pave Low for Blackout), so they're not the same even if the toys are. So Blackout's dead, and Bonecrusher never reappeared as a toy, unless you take overstock into account (I'm not taking the Robot Heroes into account either).
