[quote="PrymeStriker"]Here's the twist: it's not Breakdown.

It's his body, but he has no memories of being who he was. He's just a mindless muscle drone powered by synth-en.

It's not technically reviving Breakdown.

[quote="PrymeStriker"]Yes. Out to make Dark Energon redundant.

...

It'll be Dreadwing's death all over again. R.I.P, Knock Out.

[quote="Handels-Messerschmitt"]I think Knock Out is as much of a main character as Soundwave is. He doesn't hang out around Megatron as much but he appears and does things throughout the entirety of the show with pretty good regularity. He isn't just their doctor, either, he actually interacts with the autobots as well. He could def do with more screentime, though.

That's one of my favorite parts about this show...most shows you could identify who the main characters are, like say Hot Shot in Armada vs other Autobots, whether it focuses on either faction more, etc. But I feel like each character has had a good amount of screentime and development, and it's not really like there's main characters winning every battle or anything, everyone seems pretty equal and important.

Dreadwing however, needed MUCH more screentime. I loved him!! :sad:

I just wonder did Airachnid die, I hope so, not because I don't like her, but because I really want to se any Fembot body reduced into scrap in any cartoon series... Also it would be hard to explain how she survived thisif she was in stasis.

So many options in next seazon... I simply can't wait.

I don't think this is a good idea. After all, the only female character who do'sent survive end of the series in cartoon was so far only Airazor, bu yet she was'nt killed directly. So killing a Fembot would be a interesting new idea in a TV series.

But to be honest, I would prefer to creators killed of Arcee, because she is propably only predictable character in the series. Especially since she got so many episodes even if it seems they dos'ent want to give her a really good character development.

Wanting the woman to die because she is a woman is kind of, uh...

I think what TurboMMaster means is that, in most shows, the females almost always survive because they are females. If one didn't survive, however, that would be something new and outside the standard norm.

Arcee. If they kill one fembot in Prime, let it be her.

I don't hate Arcee. I'd want her gone over Airachnid, however. I've been saying this since "Toxicity," but they really need to kill a main Autobot.

Also, I've thought about this for a while. What if a friend from Smokescreen's boot camp (Maybe Mirage?) came to Earth and joined Team Prime. A few episodes later, that Autobot dies due to Smokescreen's careless actions. I think it would develop Smokescreen as both a character and a warrior.

How about hey they just stop using character deaths as a means to enhance the development of other characters and just, you know, let us get to know these characters without killing them off?

Though the specifics differ, killing a character for the benefit of another character's growth is the same concept that has been done again and again in this show. It reeks of unoriginality and retread waters. There are other was to develop a character than by having the writers murder their own creations. :BANG_HEAD:
