I can imagine what his arrival in this new form will be like.
 
(The Decepticons have the Autobots surrounded.)
 
Bumblebee: Never thought we’d go out like this. (note this is me translating)  
Arcee: Well, if we’re going out, we might as well go out the way we’ve always been (pulls out her lasers). Kicking ‘Con tail.  
Wheeljack: (pulls out his swords) Likewise.  
Ultra Magnus: (to Wheeljack and Bulkhead as he pulls out his hammer) It has been my privilege, and honor to serve as your leader, boys.  
Bulkhead: Same here, sir.  
Starscream: (seeing the Autobots about to make their last stand) Autobots, always defiant to the end. Very… heroic. Don’t you agree, Master?  
Megatron: (chuckles) Such heroic nonsense. (to his soldiers) DESTROY THEM!  
(As the Decepticon forces move in on the ’Bots, there is a car horn blaring in the distance, followed by a truck horn, the car turns out to be Smokescreen and we see a Road-Warriors-looking truck which transforms into the new Optimus).

Optimus does not simply stay dead.

What time in the afterlife, at most he was in a coma.
 
Okay… as no one seems to know, pay attention.  
It’s a tradition now in TF that when a bot dies, they turn gray, at the then of the season two final we saw this.  
 
His arm is red, not dead!

Christ, did Optimus spend his time in the afterlife benchpressing?

Fuck yeah!

@Background Pony 1 & @Background Pony 3  
THIS Optimus didn’t die…. yet.

@Background Pony  
Ozman did TF HATE post not just TF post…

@Background Pony  
You have to remember, Optimus died for your sins.

Nice try, Ozman. Now go the fuck away….

So much for Optimus dying.
 
Again.
